show notes
In our Warhammer Old World lore dive episode 84, we cast our focus back to spotlight four of the most infamous Skaven to ever crawl from the Under-Empire. Each of whom embody a different facet of Skaven ambition, madness, and treachery. We begin with Throt the Unclean, Clan Moulder’s grotesque Master Mutator, whose endless hunger and warpstone-fueled experiments have spawned some of the deadliest monsters in the world. Next comes Lord Skrolk, the living embodiment of disease and the greatest Plaguelord of Clan Pestilens, who spreads corruption and apocalypse in the name of the Horned Rat. From there, we follow the shadowy legend of Deathmaster Snikch, Clan Eshin’s supreme assassin, whose impossible killings and political murders have toppled kings, generals, and entire nations from the darkness. Finally, we descend into the laboratories of Ikit Claw, Clan Skryre’s half-mechanical genius, whose warp-powered inventions, superweapons, and reckless experiments threaten to destroy friend and foe alike. Together, these four warlords reveal the true nature of Skaven society—a civilization driven by mutation, plague, assassination, and unchecked technological ambition, where every path to power is as dangerous as it is deadly.
