What is the largest living creature in the Warhammer Fantasy setting?
Im quite curious and very into Warhammer lore, and as an avid RPG player i love Colosal beings in videogames, and i know warhammer (Fantasy only not 40k) has to have them.

I believe Krakanrok the Black would be the largest if I'm not mistaken or someone else who knows more about the lore can correct me.

I mean Archaon climbed what he though was a mountain only to figure out that it was infact the oldest of all the Dragon Ogre's, which never stop growing as they age. So yeah I think him being the literal size of a mountain makes him probably the largest living creature.

He is sleeping though, so if you want an answer for largest living ACTIVE creature, do daemons count? I think Great Unclean Ones are the largest.

I would Say Daemons can count, i really wanna look into the lore of the Larger creatures, they intrest me.

The father of the dragon ogres is the largest named creature in the lore. His name is Krakanrok the black. When Archaon is collecting all the chaos artifacts he needs, he has to climb a mountain and fight through a bunch of chimera at the top to get the sword. Near the top he suddenly get really scared/nervous because he realise it's not a mountain range they are in. They had been climbing on Krakanrok for a few days. It doesn't say it anywhere, but I'm pretty sure he slept through the endtimes and is floating in the void.

What About Sea Creature Wise? I know Warhammer has Krakens and whatnot, Sucks you cant fight them in TW. But still.

There are bigger creatures in the water but the aren't named or talked about. It just states that there are worse things than people in the world know. Also kholek isn't shown as the right size. He should take up about a third of your deployment zone at least.

The only thing I know about the sea is they have Megalodons, and as a paleontology nut I know plenty about them, but this is fantasy and I'm sure there are seabeasts that make 50ft sharks look like bait fish.

There's probably Demons in the warp that can be any size they want... Rules there are there are no rules.

Dinos galore all over Lustria too. Krakens in the sea. You Name it.

Basically take anyting in traditional Myth and Legend and it's bigger and badder in Warhammer.

I'm vaguely aware.

How do you tell the difference between a goblin and a brettonia peasant.

As already stated, the largest living thing in Warhammer is Krakanrok the Black, eldest of the Dragon Ogres.

Unless the Great Maw is fact a single big leech with it's mouth (a km or so across) on one side of the planet, and gently farting into the oceans on the other side....

From memory, the various sea monsters don't exceed the size of a major battleship (although there could well be bigger down there), and so it would still be Krakanok.
