For the faction, see Tiranoc.

Tiranoc is a Island province which first appeared in Total War: Warhammer II.

Background[]

Tiranoc is one of the ten High Elven kingdoms of Ulthuan, located to its far west. Once it was the fairest of the Elf lands, where majestic snow-capped peaks towered over sweeping flower-strewn plains. Its people were great sailors who colonised many lands to the west. Wealth flowed from these colonies: gold to gild the city's spires, silver to be wrought into the bodywork of chariots, furs for winter wear and medicinal herbs to cure the sick. The Charioteers of Tiranoc, famed throughout the land for their skill and daring, raced between their white marble cities.

Then came the Sundering. When the Dark Elves broke with the people of Ulthuan, Tiranoc was one of the lands that suffered most greviously. In a series of devastating earthquakes and tsunamis it was flooded by the sea and disappeared almost completely, leaving only a fraction above the ocean. Many of its beautiful cities tumbled to ruin, or else were swept beneath the seas. Indeed, only the mountains and the bleak haunches of land huddled at their feet remain above the water. Navigating so close to the shore now proves dangerous to naval vessels, for the surface of Tiranoc rises with great heaves that throw up bleak islands which sink just as quickly as they breached the surface.

In the wake of the Sundering, Tiranoc's survivors swore to rebuild their kingdom to its former glory. Over the millennia they have achieved much, and there are once more prosperous cities in the realm – nonetheless, it is a rare heart in Tiranoc that does not know bitterness. Thus, whenever the Dark Elves invade Ulthuan, it is the armies of Tiranoc which are the first to take up arms. Such battles are vicious beyond measure, for the prospect of retribution lends strength and resolve sufficient to overcome any foe.
