Veigo Hexensohn when you take in to account he was a high ranking Priest of Morr with his name on documents from possibly the year 2395IC before he ever joined the Amethyst Order, is probably closer to 200 years old then he is 100 because Karl Franz is Emperor when our boy Zagreus got sucked in to that portal/wormhole the Brass Orb made.
Do you hear that?
Yes, that noise in the distance.
It's Voldemort grinding his teeth at the fact that someone managed to live so long without resorting to horcruxes or the philosopher's stone , to live for centuries and maintaining a, if not youthful, at least timeless visage.
Their is a image in one of the RPG book floating around the internet that shows what maybe him as a bald man who looks to be in his fifties or maybe his Sixties so he certainly does not look his age of over 100 years old.
God damn. Dumbledore should really go through some of the colleges of magic's beauty treatments, considering he looked like this when he died, at the ripe age of 115 years old.
Also, wouldn't be hilarious if Dumbledore and Viggo Hexensohn met, maybe to discuss Zagreus'future attendance at Hogwarts, and the topic came out, for some reason or another?
I mean, Dumbledore is unusual among his peers because, unlike other witches and wizards that may be the same age as him, or even older, he still remains vigorous for his age, unlike the former, who look shriveled and gnarled, like old oak trees.
However, even Dumbledore looks old. No wonder, considering he is more than a century old. And now imagine Dumbledore's first interactions with Hexensohn. It's likely that Dumbledore would try to exploit the fact that he looks old and wise (which he is) to try to get his way by appealing to that part of human nature that compels us to pay attention to our seniors.
Only, Hexensohn would remain unimpressed at Dumbledore's theatrics and say something along the lines of him not being goaded by tricks that he had mastered before Dumbledore was even born.
The age of a powerful human Wizard in Warhammer can be hard to tell. When ever a human spends a good bit of time around magical energies in Warhammer they are changed on a Metaphysical level with things like Arcane Makes simply being outward manifestations of the changes their soul has undergone. The changes are unique to each kind of Magical energy and whether or not the contact with magic was intentional or not.
Dumbledore:"I must admit, patriarch Hexensohn, I am flabbergasted at the rather outstanding way you have managed to withstand the ravages of time. I am indeed envious of the fact that you are actually older than your outwardly appearance would suggest. Any secret ulyou would be willing to share to those who would to yearn to be so we'll preserved as you?
Viggo Hexensohn:"There's no real secret, headmaster Dumbledore. It's, in fact, quite simple. You must spend decades soaking your body and soul in the essence of the purest magic, as well as forsaking all but the most basic human attachments and relationships in the pursue of knowledge, as well as following a path of asceticism to swear off any luxuries and lavishness."
No, but seriously. Does this mean that Zagreus, if he is diligent in his studies and his search for mastery of magic, would remain relatively young by the time all his friends are already married and with kids?
Like, would he look in his twenties when harry, Hermione and Ron are already past thirty years old, at the end of deathly hallows?
One we have not had any bad stuff happen to us when we have called on Morr and we do have a pretty major issue for a priest of Morr to deal with in all the restless spirits at Hogwarts. This kind of issue is also right up in Morr's area of expertise unlike a Magic Monster with with the ability to freeze people with it's eyes.
I digress, although it won't be obvious at first glance, the truth is that Zagreus will feel compelled to deal with the issue of the monster from the chamber of secrets, for reasons that are within Zagreus' jurisdiction. Mainly the fact that the one responsible for unleashing the basilisk is basically a shard of a disembodied soul attached to a sort of phylactery, thus entering into the domain of necromancy, since the purpose of Riddle's diary was to serve as an anchor to Riddle's soul to earth , therefore preventing his spirit from entering Morr's realm through dark magic, which would make it Zagreus' business, as the only priest of Morr on earth at the moment.

I have no idea why, but for some reason, I imagine that teenager Zagreus, if he keeps a healthy and full diet like he has had during his time at Hogwarts, will grow to be looking similar to Tom riddle in the movies, with high cheekbones and pale skin. Only, his hair will be more spiky, like his namesake in the hades video game, and a bit gaunter, which is ironic, considering Voldemort's mother was from the Gaunt family.
Also, I wonder wether Ginny, in the far-fetched case that Lucius slips the diary among her school items to frame her for murder, or at least attempted murder of muggleborns in the current timeline,will know enough about Zagreus to write about it in Tom's diary. It's not something completely out of the question. I mean, it's perfectly possible that, during summer vacations the topic of Zagreus, the weirdly morbid exchange student kid that has a eerie obsession with death, but that is also surprisingly amiable, and that managed to skewer a bunch of gryndilows while fighting for his life with a translucent scythe summoned by magic, came into conversation.
And wether the memory of Tom riddle would bother to pay Zagreus any attention at all. I cross fingers so that je doesn't, so that he later gets a rather blunt call-out.
Besides, it's hilarious that Tom Riddle developed such an inferiority complex for his half-blood origins, that he felt the need to change his name to something that sounded more intimidating and ominous, in order to look impressive and unique, whereas Zagreus Nyx is already a kick-ass name, and what's more, plenty of warhammer fantasy villains, the human and vampire ones at least, don't go by pseudonyms, but introduce themselves by their birth names, which don't only sound tough and imposing, they are also, plausible within naming conventions in real life. Like Heinrich Kemmler

On a side note, it's also a bit concerning the fact that Harry, due to being accidentally sorted in Ravenclaw, may not be considered a true Gryffindor, and thus unable to wield Godric's sword.
Unless, of course, the sword realizes that harry was sorted into Ravenclaw by virtue of the sorting hat being botched, and thus, the sword focuses only on Harry's qualities that make him a Gryffindor
And imagine what amazing combo would Zagreus and Harry would make against the basilisk. Zagreus with his scythe, and Harry with the sword.
Zagreus:"alright harry, I take it from the right and you taking from the left. If we coordinate, it's possible that only one of us get killed."
Harry:"I would tell you that you are being a bit too pessimistic Zag, but considering how barely we managed to get out of death grasp last year against the possessed body of Quirrel, I can't help but agree with you."

I can see Zagreus looking very smug at Tom Riddle's demise due to the latter tampering with dark magic, which corrupts the soul.
Also, Zagreus getting ready to give harry the last rites due to harry slowly dying from the basilisk venom, only for Fawkes to heal him, with Zagreus struggling between feeling relieved that he doesn't have to see another friend dying, or exasperated because he really had been practicing to become an upstanding servant of Morr, and there's a rather blatant lack of funerals in this world.
