Lizardmen Skinks | Warhammer Old World Lore
Shownotes
In our Warhammer Old World lore dive episode 96, we explore the Skinks, the small but remarkably adaptable servants who form the living foundation of Lizardmen civilisation. While the Slann contemplate the Great Plan, the Saurus wage war and the Kroxigor provide raw strength, it is the Skinks who keep the temple-cities functioning—serving as priests, administrators, scribes, artisans, hunters, beast-handlers, scouts and soldiers. We examine their strange spawning, language and society before exploring exceptional varieties such as the near-invisible Chameleon Skinks, Sotek’s aggressive Red-Crested Skinks and the mysterious fork-tailed Oracles. Finally, we look at their mastery of Lustria’s beasts and legendary figures including Tehenhauin, Oxyotl, Tiktaq’to and Tetto’eko, revealing how Skink initiative has repeatedly changed Lizardmen history.
