Warhammer trivia chain!

This is a neat little idea I found on The warhammer forum and it sounds like fun.

The Rules
1) You may attempt to answer each trivia question as many times as you like, but may not post more than twice in a row attempting to do so.
2) If you answer successfully, then you must post the next question!
3) Questions must be short & concise (No multi-part questions please).
example:
question :From which province of Ulthuan do the most arrogant of High elves hail?

optional: if you can, try to answer questions with more than one word, so as to clue the rest of us in on the fluff and we can all learn something

answer : Pseudo-glorious past pheonix kings came from Caledor so, most of them dragon princes of caledor consider themselves a cut above.

4) If after 2 full days no one has guessed successfully, then a clue may be given by the person who posted that question. Clues may be continually given every 2 days until the answer is given successfully.
5) If someone has answered thinking themselves correct, started a new question, then afterwards discovered that they were wrong, then the new question/s is "frozen" (may not be attempted by anyone) until the original one is answered correctly.
6)Questions must be "fluff" related (not rules). Try to make the questions a challenge, but not totally impossible!
7) "Optional" try and make sure the answer is not too easy to google

OK - you wanted a fantasy question...

Who killed Nagash by chopping off his hand, then arm, severing his spine, and finally chopping him into a thousand pieces and burning them in a warpstone fire?

Some very determined Skaven with a lot of time on their hands and nothing better to do?

Well, if we must be specific it was Alcadizaar who did all the choppy bits, but only after being freed by some Skaven, given a Skaven sword and all the while being protected by the combined magical powers of the entire Skaven council of thirteen. When the chopping was done, it was the Skaven who gathered up all the bits and burned them.
Happy?

There we go :D I maintain it was Alcadizzar who did the chopping, though.

Anyway - next question goes to Prim. Fire away, chief :D
