How would you design a new Chaos Dwarf character?

Like with the recent Ogre thread, assuming we get Tordrek (Frankenstein monster naval chorf), the chaos dwarfs are a little bare when it comes to characters. Only other ones of note are Rykarth the Unbreakable (Who could be fleshed out, but I think they even gave his armor to Zhatan) and Ghorth the Cruel (Who is currently represented as a generic character in an npc faction). If GW/CA were to design a new character (Or two new characters depending on how froggy they're feeling) what would you like to see?

Warrior-priest Shar'tor was made for the WHFB but he b didn't make it in. 


Bullcentaur LL is obvious choice. I will vote for Tar'shor the priest-warrior.

Maybe not with the name so on the nose, but a Bull Centaur character would be my first choice yeah.

Yeah, Bullcentaur LL would be neat but probably another name.


So, how about Bull'basaur? :D

Start with the Chaos Hat and make it really big. You can add a dwarf under it at some point if you feel like it.

With Chorfs only having 3 characters right now, it does feel like CA tried to have everything covered, even when it might not make sense. Drazhoath is the infernal guard but also the K'daii demon forges, Zhatan is both the Laborer/Hobgoblins as well as the War Machines, Astragoth is the "Race leader" character, but also for some reason covers the bull centaurs.

My personal wishlist in order of desireability:


1. New Hobgoblin character to substitute the subrace campaign that Gorduz lost out on.

2. Abnagg Helbeard, Chaos Dwarf Admiral stationed in the Southlands's eastern coast.

3. Rykarth, assuming he starts in Talabecland to mirror the Nemesis Crown campaign

4. New Bull Centaur character


With the following DLC to follow:


Hobgoblin Khan L

Hobgoblin Boss H

Magma Dragon

Kollossus

Harridans

Chaos Siege Giant

Bazuka weapon teams

Bull Centaurs primarily serve as guardians in temples of Hashut and servants of the Sorceror-Prophets. Astragoth is the race leader as High Priest of Hashut, so it makes sense that they would follow him/he boost them.

Huh, I guess that sorta makes sense. Still feels a bit odd though

Daemonsmiths and Sorcerer Prophets are Chaos Dwarfs engineers. We have Sorcerer Prophets LLs. The problem is that neither of them has any unique buffs for Chaos Dwarfs war machines.

Definitely a bull Centaur of some sort.


If there's heroes of them it makes sense to have a named version.

Todrek Hackheart.Plus, he is not even a Chaos Dwarf by birth and makes sense to start abroad.

The bulliest centaur of them all. A hulking monstrosity of living metal wreathed in flame and shadow. The first of his kind, whispered to be a scion of Hashut himself. Servant of the Father alone.

The whole "bull made of metal" theme is kinda already taken by Taurox.

If you want to be REAL goofy, you could have some Slave Uprising Charcter who gets buffs to units like them (And as a result, can't recruit Chaos Dwarfs.), maybe make it so they follow Hashut though and consider themselves Hashut's REAL Chosen. Maybe even get some Warriors of Chaos who are followers of Hashut alongside the Greenskins.
Might as well go full crazy.

We have that already.  His name is Grimgor.
