The Skaven

The Skaven are a race of cunning and agile ratfolk, a plague that spreads through the underbelly of Thalassara's cities and dungeons. With their fur-covered bodies, sharp claws, and a keen sense of smell, they are a terrifying force in the shadows. Their society is a ruthless meritocracy, where only the most cunning and treacherous rise to the top. Skaven are born with an innate talent for stealth and subterfuge, making them adept thieves, assassins, and spies. Their presence is a constant reminder that in the world's dark corners, a new power is rising. As a key member of the Verminclaw Pact, they are the spymasters and saboteurs of the alliance, using their guile to outwit and betray any foe who dares to underestimate them.
