Skaven – Skabbik’s Plaguepack
6" 2 6+ 1 Skabbik Plagueseeker is on a holy quest – holy, at least, to the rancid congregations of the Clans Pestilens. Within the Wyrdhollow, he seeks nothing less than an ingredient to one of the Great Plagues, a mythic disease with the power to change the course of history. Skabbik’s Plaguepack wetly skitter forth to bring pestilence, rot and death to the enemies of the Great Horned Rat. Should the Plague Priest’s noisome acolytes succeed in their task, the Mortal Realms themselves may be entirely reduced to a rancid, rotting mulch. | ||
