The Last Laugh started not as a regiment, but rather a social club for the Templar Order of Knights who needed a place to relax with good friends and entertainment after the work day was done. The Last Laugh was fronted by Sister Dellamore and Brother Dellamorte Francesco, witch hunters for The Order of Sigmar who were looking for a way to relieve stress after a day of putting the Chaos touched to the pyres. The Last Laugh offered what they advertised as "knightly entertainment", with various members of the Templar Order booked to perform poetry, music, story telling, and even comedy based on their travels and experiences.
Alas, after the full scale war broke out and the Alliance between the Empire, High elves, and Dwarves was created, The Last Laugh went under as the demands of duty called. However, the fond memories of The Last Laugh had created very strong attachments to the club and namesake and others began to dye their armor the traditional colors of The Last Laugh in order to spot other former patrons. Upon sight, they would recognize one another and smile, being reminded of the good times back home, even as they were out in foreign lands. Indeed, many could sit around a war camp's fire and recall memorable performances or make the best impression of Dellamore's adopted low born Bretonnian accent, despite the fact she was Empire born and bred.
The Francesco's, along with other members of the Order, currently tithe to a special vault account in the First Altdorf Bank in order to one day reopen The Last Laugh. We hope to see your colors on the battlefield soon brothers and sisters. Faith is tested daily and reminders of what we are fighting for, the freedoms we enjoy, the loved ones we will never drink with again...these are the strongest of motivators.
Pass a pint of the black! We drink to remember, not to forget!
