A well-known name to fans of the Warhammer universe, Be'lakor the Dark Master arrives in Total War: Warhammer 3 in all his Daemonic glory. Possessing all of his famous cunning and fantastically voice acted by actor Richard Armitage, Be'lakor's quest for revenge provides an engaging and thematic basis for the Realm of Chaos narrative campaign.

This guide will explain the lore behind the Dark Master, how to unlock him in-game, and the benefits of doing so.
Simply put, Be'lakor is the first Daemon Prince of Chaos. Few remnants of his mortal past remain, but his exploits as a servant of Chaos are legendary. Lured by the power of the Dark Gods, Be'lakor was turned into a Daemon, forcing him to crown the future Everchosens for all eternity. However, his pride overcame him, and filled with arrogance, Be'lakor struck out against the ruinous powers, only to be doomed to an existence of Shadow, unable to manifest in the mortal plane.
Be'lakor exists in Total War Warhammer 3 as the game's primary antagonist. It is he who imprisoned Ursun, the Bear God of Kislev, and he who seeks to ascend to godhood, to take his revenge upon the Gods of Chaos who betrayed him. During the Prologue, Be'lakor manipulates Yuri, the Prince of Kislev, into wounding the Great Bear, and so begins the events contained within the game's narrative campaign.
Driving events from behind the scenes, Be'lakor is at the heart of the Realms of Chaos, in a location called the Forge of Souls. From there he seeks to subjugate Ursun, thereby taking the god's power for himself, and finally ending his shadowy existence.
Be'lakor can be unlocked via completing the Realm of Chaos narrative campaign.
