Castle Drachenfels lore
So after some researching I only found out who is Drachenfels
but I couldn't find out anything about the castle coming alive The page I did some research only said Years later, Oswald hired a great playwright to direct a production within the castle of Oswald's "heroic" defeat of Drachenfels. The most important individuals in the Empire attended, as well as the newly crowned Karl Franz and his son Luitpold II. The production was hindered by many spooky incidents, not the least of which was the eccentric behavior of the actors. As would be expected, Drachenfels returned to life during the play and slaughtered a fair number of the audience and cast. Genevieve and the director of the play, Detlef Sierck, were blessed by Sigmar and dealt a killing blow to Drachenfels (again). Although this is described as having killed him once and for all, everyone who has killed him has thought the exact same thing. Regardless, his fortress was finally razed to the ground on Franz's command. The castle itself hasn't been seen by a living being in ages, as no sane creature would travel there.
So is there a reason why the castle came alive ?

trapped souls of drachenfels thousands of victims? the sheer malevolent will of it's master? centuries of vile magics permeating it's every stone and nail?

really, take your pick. i don't belive it's done from AoS, either. i keep expecting it to spring into being dead in the center and start spewing ultramarines brainwashed to do drachenfels bidding because he gives zero ♥♥♥♥♥.

Yeah. I'd really love to see them go back and add some maps to Drachenfels, like one to explore his library, laboratory, incatation rooms, etc and have additional traps that are magical in nature.

Would be awesome to see a non-skaven enemy type in there as well, since what he's got in his menagerie could be really anything, but I'd settle for illusioned hallways (with a wizard's tower vibe, except darker) that lead to rooms full of traps instead of objectives.
