The Stormcast Eternals are the finest warriors in the Mortal Realms, the combination of noble soul, Sigmarite steel, and the lightning of Azyr, forged into the perfect soldier by the artifice of Sigmar and Grungni.

However, for all their weapons of war and thick armor, the Stormcast would be nothing without the loyal beasts of Azyr that fight at their side. From dog-sized Gryph-Hounds that bark warnings to their beloved masters to the towering Stardrakes that can call down a rain of comets, the menagerie of Azyr is filled with incredible creatures.
