"I am Karl Franz, and I was born into this world, just like you. A world of unceasing war and endless terrors. But with a nation of men at its heart, a bastion of hope and courage: the Empire. Led by the craven, torn apart by the greedy, weakened and exposed, forever on the defense. But no longer. Now, we unite! To purge the evil that dares confront us! Follow me, and we will banish this darkness! I swear this as your Emperor!" Karl Franz, Prince of Reikland and Emperor of the Empire of Man.

Grimderp is just realpolitik most of the time lol, in reality Karl's lack of willingness to assume power would spell the end of his rise to the hands of those who were willing & able to take the throne by any means; if not him just being assassinated the moment his father dies. Laggards and second-guessers don't last long in a power-vacuum, much less one for an empire; and this guy needed someone else to convince him, such is his lack of self-confidence. If anything, him turning out to be some master statesman behind it all is grimderp (or at the very least, derp)

He's just a human dude who rose to power in his kingdom. And despite all that, he's holding his kingdom together against the billion year old evil gods of horrible doom and destruction and their armies of whatever trillion demon entities of a quadrillion star destroyers. Karl is cool because he's grounded.

Back in one of the issues of White Dwarf Karl Franz had a special rules that once per battle phase he could say a prayer to Sigmar, who then turned all his stats to 10 for that phase. This was back in the day where having 10 in all stats allowed him to easily bulldoze everything, so even if you have a nice ward save you'll be getting your ass kicked. That other lady in the painting might be Karl Franz' sister. In the Gotrek & Felix novel Skavenslayer it's mentioned (according to Lexicanum in chapter 1, and they're sticklers for details like that) that Thanquol tried to manipulate the head of Nuln's secret police into arresting Karl Franz' brother-in-law, which would necessitate him having a sister.

@@crazydude610 Correct. In-laws were historically the family you joined via marriage, so if you were a man who married a woman, her brother would be your brother-in-law, her mother, your mother-in-law. And you’d be their brother-in-law or son-in-law. Similarly, a person marrying into your family would your in-law, but usually only that person. So, if Karl Franz has a married sister, her husband would be his brother-in-law, but her father would be his sister’s father-in-law.

Think the immortal Empires trailer perfectly encapsulates Karl Franz. At the meeting he is perhaps the most normal and least powerful powerful person there. Everyone else are powerful magic wielders, half dragons, ancient races some older than the empire itself or empowerment by god with superhuman abilities and expanded lifespans. Yet every single person there listens to Karl Franz and respects him and when they start bickering he is the one that unites them all.

They have little time and little ways to spend it, and so that "madness" allows them to do crazy shit, its one of the main reason i like to headcannon that man is chaos favorite toy and they wont allow anyone else to have it, because of mankinds inherint "insanity" makes it so that anything we do? We do it at 200% compared to others, and others will wait a century or a couple of decades before acting man doesnt have that time they gotta deal with that problem now, it adds and subtracts, grand cathay ironicly only stands not cause of said dragons but because of man, if all humanity there just went "no fuck this" and left grand cathay would crumble but the dragons don't think that, they dont care for man, if all that respect slowly turns to fear, soon that fear will go away, and in its replace rage comes forh, and a human so filled with rage cause lets say someone took his children away from him?

I recall a scene from when Orion saved the life of Franz. That battle was actually caused by the Asrai flooding a river to get the beastmen to piss off and about halfway through the Asrai were getting ready to return to Athel Loren and leave the lumber foots to their fate. As they were getting ready to leave one of Orion's outriders asked how long could this world endure if they let heros like Franz die. Orion looked at her with so much anger she feared he was going to strike her down on the spot. Orion then laughed smiled and proceeded to blow the horn of the wild hunt the loudest it's ever sounded, before fighting his way to the unconscious form of the emperor. For hours and through his current incarnation taking several borderline mortal wounds Orion defended the fallen emperor until the minotaurs consumed in their bloodlust failed to see that the rest of the warheard had routed and were subsequently cut down. For as long as the weave endures so shall the Empire. Long Live Athen Loren, Long live the Empire! (yeah in case you haven't noticed I'm a bit of a hippy stand sue me)

And here I was hearing you explain why it's clearly Franz in AoS and thinking "hmm how much anger would suggesting it's Louen cause." I guess I know. Seriously though the only acceptable explanation for him not heading the Stormcast Eternals would be that after the End Times his soul fused with Sigmar himself... And made Sigmar significantly better for it.

Karl Franz was the reason I got into Total War Warhammer, I knew nothing about Warhamer Fantasy before that campaign but after summoning the Elector Counts and crushing everyone who opposed me I fell in love with the beautiful bastard. There is none greater, there will be none greater, he is a man who has achieved everything through his own merit and by the blessings of Sigmar.

One of my favorite things about our boy is how good of a balance he strikes between capable on his own, but still needs the help of others. Too many characters go too far on one way or the other, where they seem completely ineffectual without someone else’s help, or so ridiculously powerful they make everything boring.
