  • 61: Bretonnian Heroines | Warhammer Old World Lore
    Aug 27 2025

    This time around we take a look at the heroines of Bretonnian the magical Damsels and Prophetesses of the grail and a rare female knight of the realm and Duchess. We start with a dive into the magical children of Bretonnia and how there are found, trained and their place in society, we then have a chat about a specific example of this with Élisse Duchaard, the prophetess of Brinne and her place in the world as the apprentice of the Fey Enchantress. Speaking of the Fey Enchantress we take a gander at the high priestess of the Lay, her operations in Bretonnia together with her seemingly iron fisted approach to the nobility. We close out the episode with a look at the other extreme of heroines with the Bretonnian Joan of Arc, Repanse de Lyonesse

  • 60: Bretonnian Grail Heroes | Warhammer Old World Lore
    Aug 13 2025

    Thirsty? Well you are in luck as this episode deals with the Grail Knights! We start by exploring the roles the Grail Knights have in Bretonnian culture and the Virtues they can manifest, each based on one of the 14 madlads who unified the country. Amalric of Gaudaron is our first example of what it means to be a Grail Knight, Renowned as the Bane of the Undead. We delve into the deeds of Bohemond Beastslayer, an amazing knight and terrible judge of character. The Hermit of Malmont, slayer of dragons with monotonous regularly is up next, out of his mind on dragon-wine. We close out the episode with the tale of Sir Berenger Vaillancourt, a grail knight whose shrine was desecrated leading to his quest for vengeance gaining the attention of a certain God of Chaos…

  • 59: Bretonnian Peasant Heroes | Warhammer Old World Lore
    Jul 23 2025

    We start with a mysterious mystery of the Herrimaults (Eh-ree-Mau) which Cral gets straight away and Dar loses his temper. We explore what it takes to become a Hairy-Mole and what their day to day life is like, their relations with other peasants and their local nobility their Leaders are desperate to hold to account. We turn to the tale of perhaps the most famous of their number, Bertrand the Brigand of Bergerac, and how he is not a total rip off of Robin Hood. We close out the episode by looking at the other extreme of the peasant/noble interaction. The Fanatics that are the raucous murderous Grail Pilgrims, Serf’s who worship Grail Knights to the point that they may kill them and wear their trappings and bones to bring the favour of the Lady.
