Gotrek as the avatar of Grimnir for FS specifically could be really cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been a while since I read Soulslayer, but he doesn't seem to have any more of a problem with Fireslayers than he has with literally everybody else, a lot less than the vast majority. But technically he is a FS, he is a Dwarf with a stonking great FS rune in him, carrying a FS weapon, and looks like a FS. He is also pretty much the avatar of the FS god. I would say putting him in FS makes perfect sense 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotrek has essentially begun to treat nearly every duardin faction he encounters like misguided children/distant-kin, and has since been trying to adapt old Dawi logic to the mortal realms. Of course, this being Gotrek, this has a roughly 60% chance of ending in disaster. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the Avatar of Grimnir to be a large and epic fiery spirit that contains his might, but having his personality and essence living on through Gotrek creating a schism between the Fyreslayer society. The Avatar resembling his appearance in this amazing work but at a more modest but still impressive scale. The ultra orthodox naked Duardin, and the untraditional Dwarves rocking blue jeans.

He is like a missing link of the dwarven race representing all of them. He is no Fyreslayer and never will be. He is Gotrek.

The only thing that he is missing is that he is not worship Grimnir. With all honesty I think that Gotrek is more fyreslayer then actual fyreslayers because right now (and it was addressed in soulslayer) fyreslayers focused too much on worshipping their god instead of following his path. Grimnir was never about live and gold, he was about battle and walking on the edge. And I think that Gotrek is an avatar of Grimnir also by his wandering nature being looking for worth opponent. So as for the new arc in fyreslayers lore he is perfect candidate to lead them in battle as itself and also as part of united duardin force. Plus he was paired with Grombrindal multiple times with great success. I also think that he might find small magmadroth for himself at some point as a pet and then as a mount.

So that's three factions with models so three videos. But you were also hinting at 4th faction - could that be an army of Renown? I suppose Stormcast could do with a bit of narrative focus without extra models so that's a possibility... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire themes of the books, as even the authors have stated, is him finding his new place in the mortal realms. He is the representation of a WFB player learning to accept AoS. Blightslayer is a slight regression due to his depression over losing Maleneth (and the Runefather), but Gotrek is clearly changing. Everyone around him feels like he has a deeper purpose and they recognize his connection to Grimnir, even if he himself is reluctant to. He doesn't need to consider himself a Fyreslayer to be a part of them, or even be one. Edited October 14, 2023 by Snarff 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you have it, you‘ve said yourself that he does not belong into the Fyreslayer Faction Fyreslayers are followers of Grimnir, he is definitely is not, although he is his Avatar and always has been. Wanting him as part of Fyreslayer feels like forcing a Hexagon into a triangle slot, no matter how much you‘d like it. (Grimnir himself was never part of the Fyreslayers since they formed after his demise) He has history with Grimnir, but as he has stated over and over: He is no Fyreslayer. He might fight alongside them here and there but he basically fights alongside everyone. As to his ability to inspire people: Also counts for everyone, not only Fyreslayers. If anything he is a dispossessed or a potential inspiration for a united dwarven force. Edited October 14, 2023 by JackStreicher 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think characters incapable of changing or having character arcs and want them to be stuck in a single trope, then sure. But Gotrek has changed and is changing. He's literally changed his entire purpose from a honorable death to a honorable life. He's becoming more and more accepting of the master rune. That's been the unifying theme of the books. Avatar of a god, champion of the mortals looking for a place in the realms and finding his closet kin in the FS. His story is not over yet.
