== Description ==
Once a noble son of the Empire, Aekold Helbrass found his true purpose on the edge of the Chaos Wastes. There he came upon a large Chaos altar, rippling with malevolent energy. Suddenly greeted by a mirror image of himself enrobed in imperial garb, his true enemy became clear. In return for slaying his former self, he was reborn as a Champion of Tzeentch, with arcane gifts unlike anything the mortal world had seen before. Where Aekold walks the grass springs green and meadow flowers blossom, encouraging new life in a glorious act of change. When the time for war comes, no warrior of Tzeentch shall fall beside him without the Breath of Life lifting them from their knees, imbuing them with the strength to raise their blades against the enemies of fate once more.
