Nehekhara
Encyclopedia
Nehekhara is a fictional land in the Warhammer Fantasy
world. It is the home of the Undead
forces of the Tomb Kings
and the origin of the Vampire Counts
, two conflicting factions of undead. It is the Warhammer equivalent of Egypt
; it even has the Valley of the Kings and the Great Pyramid. Although most of Nehekhara is a parched desert completely devoid of life, several trade routes pass through the deserts and a few oases are to be found scattered sparsely throughout the sands. The only living kingdom is that of Numas, which still maintains a thriving human population which serves the tomb kings as loyal subjects, and are in return protected by an army that never sleeps.
