The Soulblight Gravelords are undead dynasties led by powerful vampires who serve Nagash or follow their own dark ambitions. They are nobles obsessed with blood, power, and eternity, who lead armies of skeletons, zombies, ghosts, and vampire knights.

The faction includes famous legions like the Legion of Blood (Neferata), Legion of Night (Mannfred von Carstein), and dynasties such as the Vyrkos, Kastelai, and Avengorii. Each has its own fighting style—from brutal ghouls to aristocratic knights on undead steeds.

On the battlefield, they use abilities like Ancient Burial Sites and The Unquiet Dead, which allow them to summon units from the grave and manipulate terrain. They are resilient, relentless, and capable of restoring their strength from fallen enemies. Their arrival is always accompanied by dark clouds, the screech of bats, and the scent of decay.
