A blood curling cough a day, keeps the assassins away

Hello my fellow plague-ridden kin,

As some of you might know i have already tried to make a list of all the Skaven clan beloning to the pestilent Brotherhood that are active on this forum.
Many of you might remember that i didn't handel it like it should have been done. This is why i'll give it another go, there are many players or people active on the UE and it would be a shame if there wasn't some huge and omnious list of what they are capable off.

My motivation behind this thread are the following:
- It would be cool to see who plays pestilens, and in what way
-Can provide alot of inspriation for new players in both fluff and painting if they can look up other plague players
-To provide the brotherhood with a bit of competition, getting a bigger or better painted model then the last player to post in the painting section
-If we are numerous enough, perhaps a little shift in power?

If you want to whole Under Empire to know and fear your section of the brotherhood simply fill in the next template. Feel free to add some extra stuff. You could also pm me this if you prefer it that way. Once there have been enough entries i'll make a combined thread of this all.

Code:
 

-Clan name:
-Clan leader:
-Other famous clan charachters:
-Background:
-Famous for? :
-Symbol of heraldry + clan colours:
-Clan goals :
-Holdings:
-....


Mutate: If this is succesfull i'll launch them for other clans aswell. So don't worry you Eshin/skyre/Moulder/Mors/.... loving rats out there

Flem,

The one and only.
Clan name: Yersinia Pestis

Clan leader: Plague Priest Edowardo Elriku

Other famous clan characters: Clanrat Stripe (The Unkillable), Clanrat Barry da Choppa (he's just cool), the breeders.

Background: A small exploration group lead by Edowardo Elriku was once sent out to 'go investigate that glacier aaaall the way up north. Yeah that one so far away you will likely never return.' Edo of course swiftly realised this was a trap once everyone started dying on the way there and he saw they only had a quarter of their numbers left. Once they finally reached the glacier Edo decided to stay and make it the home of a new clan, a clan lead by him. A clan that will treat its member with love and respect. A clan that will do things differently!

Famous for: Spreading STDs, not enslaving their own kind, wearing bright blue and being too nice to be Skaven. Oh and their breeders are HAWT!

Symbol of heraldry/clan colours: Clan colour is turquoise and their banners generally have images of breeders in their underwear on it.

Clan goals: To free all the other Skaven from their oppressors and spread itchy diseases.

Holdings: Skaveningen, their glacier home.

(Mostly) Overatted.

-Clan name: The !KK! !KK!

-Clan leader: XHAN KA, The Sensik

-Other famous clan charachters: Tu Ma & Ak Neh

-Background: The Sept is derived from remnants of the Pestlians invasion force which 'redeployed' from Lustria. Charged by the then Nurglitch to hold off the pursuing Lizardthings, the Sept was, to all intents and purposes, sacrificed in order to allow the rest of the Clan to skitter flee westwards. Fighting every step of the way, the rearguard eventually tunnelled all the way to Under-Nippon, losing all of its slaves and the vast majority of its fighting brethrats along the way.

Barely surviving, they immediately became subordinate to the dominant Eshin ninjrat sept, the Eka, who had colonised the Underempire of the East.

The !KK! !KK! have played a patient waiting game, quietly rebuilding their strength and pesilential virility until such time as they could both usurp the control of the Eka in Under-Nippon, and to exact revenge upon the decadent western descendants of their own Clan. As the Eka have recently begun to push west in order to pursue their own crusade, the !KK! !KK! see this as their opportunity to kill two rats with the one censor bearer stroke.


-Famous for? : Absolutely nothing.

The !KK! !KK! have been forgotten by those who abandoned them to the Lizardthings, and are dismissed as an underperforming irrelevance by the Eshin Lords of Under-Nippon.

They are but the faintest whiff of rotten eggs among the sacred sweetness of the cherry blossoms, an almost imperceptable fart among the winds gusting through the mountains.

Which is precisely as they have wanted it. Until now.


-Symbol of heraldry + clan colours: The !KK! !KK! wear varying shades of browns, inspired to some degree by the Buddhist warrior monasteries of Nippon. But with their own somewhat appropriately sick versions of the theme.

-Clan goals : 1. Payback on the Eka for their repression. 2. Ascension to dominance of Clan Pestliens, including some serious payback for being abandoned post Lustria.
3. Removal of the current decadent Lords of Decay, then returning the Skaven to the True Faith of the Horned Rat. 4. Dominance of the Over-world, making everything everywhere vomit for the Horned Rat to sup as He wills.


-Holdings: The !KK! !KK!'s main monastery is AH-CHU, at the northern extreme of Under-Nippon.

Their other bases have been well hidden till now, but are ready to burst forth, like over ripe pimples upon the face of the Under-Empire.

Grey Seer
Clan Name: Fester

Clean Leader: Lord Venomfang

Other Famous Clan Characters: Natch Vile-tail, Father Morose

Back Ground: Not much is known about Clan Fester, even by the other clans inhabiting the putrid stump. Every attempt of infiltration has proved fruitless, every attack on their lair was a disaster. What is known from the few times they leave their lair is that they are incredibly fanatical about spreading disease in the name of the Horned Rat. They maintain a large monastery for monks and priests and utilize large numbers of censor bearers and catapults in battle. Lately they have been seen using high tech equipment from clan Skyre, leading to rumors that they have acquired aid from the contingent of rogue warlock engineers that had recently disappeared without a trace in the area.

Famous for: Being rotten to the bone.

Symbol/clan colors: The symbol is an upside down symbol of the horned rat with arrows sticking out of the corners. They wear primarily Red clothing and leather made of rotting animal skins and tarnished silver armor. Stormvermin wear black.

Clan Goals: To bring glory to the pestilent brotherhood (and themselves!).

Holdings: Putrid Stump

Playing skaven to minimize randomness is like going to prom with your sister, you can do it if you really want, but in the end everyone will still laugh even if you do get lucky.

I always take at least one Warpfire Thrower. You can't always rely on your opponent to do massive damage to your troops. Sometimes, you just have to do a job yourself.

There is no such thing, as free warpstone
Clan name: Brothers of Devotion
-Clan leader: Brother Scriter-shrill
-Other famous clan charachters:
Brother thorn-creetch
Brother see-hornes
Brother far-speak

-Background: This clan was part of clan pestilence that was marooned in lustria, when they saw the vision of the great horned one, and battled their way to the shore to build a fleet and return to Skavenblight. However, as the glorious fleet in all its filthy power set sail it was attacked by a lustrian sea monster. The creature was quickly killed and sacrificed to the horned one, but three of the ships sunk. The few survivors of these sunken ships managed to scramble their way to shore where they formed this clan. Ever since then, they have been waiting for the horned one to come and recognize their fetes.
-Famous for? :Being rather angry with themselves when they missed the appearance of the horned one at the great summoning.
-Symbol of heraldry + clan colours:Turquoise, Black and for leaders, green
-Clan goals :Record as many sacrifices of pestilence in the book of the coming, that they are planning to present to the horned rat when he appears to take over the world as proof of their pestilent devotion.
-Holdings: A huge tunnel system all across the old world. they only have one tunnel to the old world.
I am ALWAYS right and when I'm not right the truth is AMENDED so that I BECOME right.

Cardinal Skratchitt



-Clan name: Clan Poks.

-Clan leader: Cardinal Skratchitt (Plague Seer).
-Other famous clan characters: Grand Priest Itchitt, Stki Festerbum.

-Background: Clan Pox was a splinter from Clan Pestilens, They Specialise in Seige Warfare, and were instrumental in the attack on Nuln led by Grey Seer Thanquol. Clan Pox prefer to use air-borne diseases to infect their victims, thus many plagueclaw catapults and poisoned wind mortars are put to use when the Clan goes to battle. Recently an emmisary from the council (Grey Seer Skratchitt) was sent to bring tithes back from the Clan. This ended with the Seer nearly dying at the hands of the vile gases within Clan Poks lair. Only by offering himself to the contagion that afflicted him was Skratchitt saved and he now serves Clan Poks.

-Famous for? : Creating several air borne diseases, and using them in great effect in both the Empire and Brettonia

-Symbol of heraldry + clan colors: Scaly Green and Dark Angels Green.

-Clan goals : To spread disease and corruption and assure the ascendancy of the Skaven to their rightful place.

-Holdings: The Incubator (Beneath the Brettonnian fortress city of Parravon)

-Clan name: Clan Squreech

-Clan leader: Warlord Squreech

-Other famous clan characters: The traitor Engineer Grolk and the Plague Seer Fettid.

-Background: Not much is known this small maddened Clan. It is said they crawled out of the jungles of Lustria, twisted with rot and disease; some still berrying the marks of a twisted transformation from lizard to rodent. At their head rode their leader Squreech seated upon a desecrated Slann palanquin whose screeching war-cry still sounds almost dinosaur. After years of spreading plague across the land they found refuge in the deepest reaches of the Marshes of Madness. There they created a vast empire beneath the swampy surface, venturing off to raid and conquer the Orc tribes that surround their domain.

-Famous for? : Their frightful imitation of their leaders almost saurian war-cry.

-Symbol of heraldry + clan colors: Clan symbol is a hooked claw. Clan colors are almost non existent as most cloth and armor is scavenged. Though the elite of the clan and any Clan Rat who has succeeded in killing one or otherwise attaining the cloth wear Red and Grey.

-Clan goals : The corruption the Orcish and Goblin tribes of the Badlands and the inclusion of those lands into their empire.

-Holdings: The Marshes of Madness.

TRADE
I'm looking for Dark Eldar to convert into DE. Also looking for bretonnia lances and halberds. If anyone has any they would be interested in trading PM me and we can work something out.


"And, most vivid of all, there was the dramatic epic of the rats––the scampering army of obscene vermin which had burst forth from the castle three months after the tragedy that doomed it to desertion––the lean, filthy, ravenous army which had swept all before it and devoured fowl, cats, dogs, hogs, sheep and even two hapless human beings before its fury was spent. Around that unforgettable rodent army a whole separate cycle of myths revolves, for it scattered among the village homes and brought curses and horrors in its train."

I'm glad to see that there are so many "pesties " (as some people might refer to us) still active enough to share the awesome stories of their own pestilent clans.
Ow by the way if people have an army diary post it in your clan summary aswell. That way when people seek inspiration for their own clan they can come to the summary (which i will post any day soon), and since it's all present in one topic it's easier.

Now I'm going to propose that we have the Original post edited to include these links as well, so they're all in one place. Also, it's nice to include the NAME of the thread, as I'm having the dickens of a time trying to track down some references in our Pinned threads where all I have is the old board coade broken link.
