Krell
Krell is a former Chaos Champion of Khorne who died before the time of Sigmar, but was raised as a unique Wight Lord by Nagash himself.
In Life
Krell was a Chaos Lord of a large tribe of Chaos Warriors dedicated to Khorne, living roughly 1500 years before the foundation of the Empire. He created a large kingdom somewhere in the future Empire and/or in the Chaos Wastes. After warring against human barbarians, he turned his attention to the realms of the Dwarfs, allying with Night Goblins. He attacked(and presumably conquered) the Dwarf fortresses of Karak Ungor and Karak Varn, but was defeated and slain while attempting to attack Karak Kadrin by an army led by Grimbul Ironhelm.
Even after Nagash's defeat, Krell was such an asskicker that even Sigmar couldn't do more than imprison him, whereupon he apparently "died" again. Centuries later, his prison-tomb was found by Heinrich Kemmler, the powerful and insane necromancer known as the Lichemaster, who broke Krell free and restored him to undeath. Originally, the Lichemaster believed that Krell was his servant, but with the coming of The End Times, Krell's true status - as Nagash's loyal Mortarch of Despair - has been revealed.
Krell is a melee monster, as you'd expect of an Undead Champion of Khorne. Traditionally, he sports the Armor of the Barrows (magic heavy armor), and the Black Axe of Krell (magic greataxe that causes continuing damage). His latest version of stats as the Mortarch of Despair gives him some new tricks, like gaining Heroic Killing Blow if he's in the same combat as Nagash (hilariously, due to RAW you can use that to kill Nagash), and regaining wounds when enemies fail Fear, Terror and Break tests within 12".
