My warlord's name was once Quorit because I needed a cool name.

Recently he became "Maskot" again because I needed a cool name, but I wanted a name that means something.

Plaguelord Bassik:
Bas is my name, and Sik is Dutch for Goatee beard, witch I had at the time(now its just a beard) so Bassik. It sounded Skavenlike. ^_^ And dwarveripper came just because I wanted a title or something, and since my best friend does dwarves...

Warlord Kliko: Kliko is a Dutch litterbin company(they make the trashcans) and I named the biggest pet rat I ever had after that. And then my warlord was named after that rat.

Any other name I made up has a similair story to Kliko, only I used bowlingterms more often(split, strike, all that stuff) ^_^

Toxaden the 4th. Basically, i like the name toxaden (toxic, i go pestilens) and he is the 4th because he has died 3 times because i thought it was funny declaring a challenge against an irongut.

Vorg...

well about 2 years ago when me and my cousins and brothers and friends discovered warhammer, we were all looking through the rule book. my friends had bought it, and 1 of they took the orcs, the other took empire. So my cousin took lizard men, the nanother one took VC then another took high evles, then my older bother took beasts of chaos and my younger one took orcs AND tomb kings (he uses em both). So i didnt have much a choice, i was still looking for an army when they were picking names. I decided to pick skaven. Then by the ime my guys were painted they had a hero and named them all cool names So i went to the nearest games workshop, bought a warlock engineer (i was going to buy an assassin, but i decided not to). I had him painted but the ywouldnt let me use him if he didnt have a name so i just shot it out of my mouth, as if it was like some told me to say it "Vorg, general of clan Vorgor!"

weird story, but a true one

The Father part is easy for me, I have a Pestilens army and the big thing with them is fanatical religion so I picked Father. Squee has two reasons, first is that it just sounds so Skaven, though where I really got it from was from the comic Squee (Jhonen Vasquez) that crazy kid can take the punishment and keep on ticking.

My little Plague Priest is Brother Shmee, for basicly the same reasons; Shmee is Squee's little disturbed stuffed bear.

Skaven Lord Vinshqueek

Bunny ear says flop

The heroes of clan Vinshqueek
Skaven Lord Vinshqueek, warlord-general of clan Vinshqueek
Grey Seer Gnawdoom
Skritch, Battle Standard Bearer of clan Vinshqueek
Blackpaw the Assassin
Skratnik the Warlock
Skratch the Plague Priest
Ratticq the Master Moulder

Well, since I (as player of the army) represent the warlord, I presumed the name should have something to do with me and my army. Combine my name (Vincent) with the most commonly heared word within the ranks of the skaven (squeek) and you very quickly reach the word: Vinshqueek.

My grey seer gained his name due to the enormous amount of battles where he died. If one should really doubt the ability of a grey seer, then he/ she should see me using one and you'd be truely convinced that those guys are horrible. The amounts of time he is blown up by his own magic, run down, or blasted from his screaming bell are at this point too much to count.

The heroes of my army are usually ones who have been created in RPGs.

Warlord Skavek
Should be a Member of the Day
Warlord Skavek because you touch yourself at night (from Family Guy)

but really its because if you take the word Skaven, take away the 'n' and put a 'k' in it's place it becomes Skavek, thought it sounded cool

and in the past few months I figured out you can scramble the letters that compose ' Warlord Skavek' and get " Work, Dark Slave!" See...... born warlord just from letter arrangement
I've decided to live forever or die in the attempt

Blackrat Takkirat'ti - No idea why, it's probably best not to know as well

Pink Seer Ikit Finkel - Ikit, as in Ikit Claw and Finkel sounds Skaveny. And he always gets roasted by flaming weapons so hes pink now.

Warlock Eng. Bubz Snikt - A guy in Baldur's Gate, the stupid ranger guy at the start

Warlock Eng. Hairyvermin - One of my friends who used to play the game was complaining about skaven once, like he always did. He said somethign about them being all hairy so I made a char to piss him off.

Chieftain Skritt - Made it up, no real meaning to it I just needed a name. He always gets stuck with the battle standard

Chieftain Skritch Hemlock - An addict to warpstone. In game hes a Plague Priest, so he basicly goes running around with a large flail hitting things. Skritch is skaveny so he got stuck with that.

Chuck Norris is ten feet tall, weighs two-tons, breathes fire, and could eat a hammer and take a shotgun blast standing.

It takes Chuck Norris 20 minutes to watch 60 Minutes.

On his birthday, Chuck Norris randomly selects one lucky child to be thrown into the sun.

Chuck Norris doesn't believe in Germany.

Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to 1CNRhK (Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kick)

Hmm
My Warlord Arrick Spiketail
A Chieftain Skolk Longsnout
A Plague Priest Scabies Blisterbreath
And finally two Warlock Engineer Morr Zzapskorch (as he has Stormdaemon) and also a scroll caddy Fank Zapskorch.
The clans name is Spiketail and all the characters and champions have spike tails..... No fluff yet gotta see what they earn.
Probably the eternal story. Boy sees alien, alien sees food. Boy objects, alien takes offense.

Rattsu
Member Avatar
Is writing Dragon Age fanfiction

Warlord: Rattsu the Black

That's quite a story actually. I first converted him, and then a friend of mine said: "Huh, he looks exactly like Gattsu" Gattsu the Black Swordsman (or Guts in the american translation) is the main character from the manga (and anime) Berserk. One of my all time favourite mangas! He has a mechanical arm, a HUGE sword, has only one eye and looks as mean as the model I had built. So of course this was to be Rattsu the Black Swordsrat, later shortened to just Rattsu the Black.

BSB: Kwikk
Just because it sounds like quick, and I do love my K's.

Engineers:
Molltov (after molotoc coctails, he carreis a deathglobe)
Tessla (after Tesla, the electric inventor, he carries the stormdaemon)

Assassin:Ittchi
Itchi the killer anyone? Takahasii Miike makes the best movies ever.

Grey Seer: Skwee
Just another ratty name with my k's

Plaguepriest: Book-Rat (Bokråttan, so much cooler in swedish)
Also pretty obvious...
I am currently writing an epic Dragon Age 2 adventure that can be found HERE!! or on my deviantart.
