Lord Skrolk image - Call of Warhammer: Beginning of The End Times mod for Medieval II: Total War: Kingdoms
A standalone expansion of the Call of Warhammer experience. Fewer scripts, unlocked gameplay, brand new factions, new continents, dozens of new units, new music, and much more.
Lord Skrolk is the main agent of Arch-Plaguelord Nurglitch, leader of Clan Pestilens. He is one of the Plaguelords, the rulers of Clan Pestilens, who are under the direct command of the Arch-Plaguelord. Skrolk is a creature of ancient evil, the favors of the Horned Rat allowing him to live many times the normal Skaven life span. In that time the pestilences he has unleashed have brought unimaginable woe upon humanity.
Skrolk was once a simple Plague Monk, but his devotion to the Horned Rat drove him through the long struggle for power which eventually led him to Skavenblight to offer his services to Nurglitch. Nurglitch set him on many long and arduous trials, including traversing the infamous Blindwyrm Labyrinth beneath Clan Pestilens' hold in Lustria. Success gained him the position he holds to this day.
Skrolk is a powerful warrior, fully capable of defending his position from challengers. In battle he bears the Rod of Corruption and the Liber Bubonicus, also known as the Book of Woe. The latter contains the alchemical and occult secrets he has gathered together over long centuries.
Skrolk is a terrifying sight. His flesh has long ago decayed into rotting tatters. His body is blighted with diseases so deadly only his brother Plague Monks can safely approach him. He clawed his own eyes out at the sight of Nurglitch's radiant corruption, wishing to see no other creature after witnessing one so glorious. Since then, through the blessings of the Horned Rat, he sees the world again, but only in the purple and greens of corruption and decay.
- Lexicanum
Current plans are for Skrolk to lead the war in Lustria against the hated Lizardmen at the head of Clan Pestilens' army of Plague Monks, Plague Priests, and generally Plague loving rat-rats.
This guy sounds like a walking biohazard, perfect for Nurgle
He serves the great horned rat though
Isn't clan Pestilens the only one of the skaven clans that recognizes another chaos god? They still follow the Horned rat but I think they worship Granpa Nurgle to some extent.
Just the Horned Rat, believe it or not. Skaven consider the Horned Rat as the god of disease and corruption, among other things.
Althou after the End Times Clan Pestilence devoted them selves entirely to Nurgle.
I consider Age of Sigmar as canon to Warhammer Fantasy as 40K.
Haha I was always a fan of the notion that sigmar was one of the lost primarchs tho, I would've preferred an end times, if there had to be one, where the tyranids (or something unique to 40k) just swooped in and brought fantasy into the world of 40k, you could still retain some of the models then for 40k games, if, say, the empire had evacuated humans and ceded them their own world, or the eldar gave the elves their own maiden worlds you know? Like I don't mind the destruction of fantasy as much as i mind how gay age of sigmar is as a replacement, I mean sure I would have loved to have a new games workshop universe, but they totally missed out on confirming the most mindfuck fan theory since darth jar jar...
Oh thanks, that might be why I've seen it somwhere.
Yeah I know, Horned rat is basically an ultimate Skaven an enbodiment of everything they stand for, must've missread it somewhere.
Holy crap I can smell him from here, great job!x)
Will Pestilens have Plague Monks and those Plague Oven things?
