## Resource

Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm Discord: https://discord.gg/Q6CTSrcbPT – It's time for our End-of-Year Special! In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. We return to Chaos with a comprehensive look at Vashtorr the Arkifane, Architect of the Arks of Omen, and ruler of the Forge of Souls. He is Chaos's weapons dealer - he plays all sides of the conflict within the warp, bartering with each of the Four to create their daemon engines and other infernal weaponry. He has established a sense of order within his growing domain, as industry and creation in the material realm empower him in his quests for pantheon ascension. Upon the tabletop, Vashtorr wreaks havoc against his opponent's machinery, as well as seriously buffing nearby daemon engines. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies. Die-hard fans of tabletop gaming, we use this podcast as a platform to share our ramblings about the hobby (though we cannot shut up about Warhammer). By day, Joshy is a therapist; by night, he's an RPG aficionado who grew up on Final Fantasies and crafting his own Dungeons & Dragons worlds. Jonny, a technician, spends his downtime conquering more video games than Joshy can keep track of. Zakky, our occasional guest, is a courier who loves buying things he then has to build. We hope you enjoy, and we look forward to interacting with you on our Discord!
