Skaven Heroes Pt2 | Warhammer Old World Lore
Notas del episodio
In our Warhammer Old World lore dive episode 85, we explore two of the greatest Skaven warlords ever to plague the Old World: the fearless conqueror Queek Headtaker and the endlessly scheming Grey Seer Thanquol. We begin with Queek, Clan Mors’ infamous "Headtaker," whose rare willingness to lead from the front, duel legendary champions, and collect the severed heads of his enemies made him one of the most feared Skaven warriors in history. From his bloody rise through the breeding pits to his brutal wars for Karak Eight Peaks and relentless campaigns against Dwarfs, Orcs, and rival Skaven, Queek embodies a twisted vision of martial honour in a race defined by treachery. The episode then turns to Thanquol, the Horned Rat’s favoured Grey Seer and perhaps Warhammer’s most iconic villain—a paranoid, megalomaniacal sorcerer whose world-ending schemes are repeatedly undone by his own arrogance, incompetent allies, and the constant interference of Gotrek and Felix. Alongside his ever-doomed Rat Ogre Boneripper, Thanquol wages disastrous campaigns across the Empire, Lustria, the Chaos Wastes, and the Dwarf Holds, somehow surviving every catastrophe to scheme another day.
