Skaven Pestilens Review

Fluff
Clan Pestilens is one of many Skaven clans in existence. Their focus is disease and decay and their ultimate goal is discovery of the 13 Great Plagues.
During the End Times the Horned Rat, which is the god of the Skaven race, became so powerful the Chaos gods had to allow him into their pantheon, though they did not respect him.
The Skaven are able to travel between realms using gnawholes that they tear through the fabric of reality, similar to the webway in Warhammer 40k. This allows them to travel without the use of warpgates.
The Skaven of clan pestilens and the followers of nurgle are actually at odds with each other. Where Nurgle delights in the death and rebirth of life, The Horned Rat wants only ultimate corruption of all life.
To this date Clan Pestilens has discovered 7 of the 13 great plagues and have unleashed them from time to time on the mortal realms.
The three main clans, Morbidu, Feesik, and Septik, are made up of billions of Plague Monks that are all part of different Churches of Contagion. Interpretations of the Horned Rat’s will differ between these churches and infighting is frequent.
