Bald warrior priests.

Okay, now I've noticed the minatures and the games with the bald warrior priests. Do warrior priests have to shave thier head as an act of faith, like certain monks of certain religions used to do or still do. IT would be bland to seen a bunch of bald people running around fighting.

    I'm pretty sure it's some sort of custom.  I know some of they wear skull caps, but I've never seen a warrior priest with hair before.

    The caps probably will take away some of the blandness.

    My understanding was that they wear the open helms in order to allow direct communication with Sigmar.  Whether their hair has anything to do with that I don't know.  I would think it is more just for visual effect though, since the female warrior priests in the concept art have all their hair.

    yes it had something to do with having a more direct contact with Sigmar, that's why they have open helms en probably also the reason for being bald :)

    They are bald because it is sexy......

    Speaking from experience there is nothing more intimidating to men or alluring to women than a slick bald head.

     

     

    Critical thinking is a desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture.

    I read somewhere (cant remember where) that the warrior priests of sigmar shave their head so their God can speak directly to them or something like that.

    I'm sure that theres gonna be hair on the warrior priests if you want it, these are just concept sketches, besides, if not, then there's always the /showhood command in every mmo
