It is rare for humanity to encounter Skaven of Clan Eshin, rarer still to survive any such encounter. For those who study the Skaven (and there are very few), there are two types of Clan Eshin Skaven known.

Gutter Runners scout far ahead of Skaven hordes, seeking the enemy, ensuring the element of surprise, and stirring the rat packs of cities into action. They are also used to spread fear and create havoc to cover Skaven slaving raids. In contrast, Night Runners are the Skaven assassins who are often active at night. Their main role is to slay foes in dark places, infiltrate enemy cities, sow fear in their enemies, and prepare the way...

Weeping Blade
Clan Eshin Assassins are equipped with either swords or daggers (sometimes both) which are forged using warpstone in its manufacture. The weapon drips with a warpstone induced poison that gives the blades their moniker. Generally, the poison has the effect of paralysis so that the Skaven has several options. They can still kill any such victims or they can take these to their lair for possible interrogation, sacrifice, or some other nefarious purpose. In some cases (15%), the poison is far deadlier and can result in instant death.

If wounded, victim must make an immediate Poison test or be paralysed for a number of hours equal to 1D6+6 minus the victim’s Toughness and cannot be revived by normal means. Once the effect of paralysation is over, the victim remains Drowsy (see WFRP, page 82) for another 1D6 rounds.

Disease-ridden followers of the Horned Rat as Harbinger of Disease, Plague Monks are the bane of many races including their own. The few scholars who believe that Skaven still exist have attributed many of the plagues that ravaged civilization across the centuries to this crazed Skaven Clan.

It is believed to be extremely rare for the Horned Rat to grant a Plague Priest the ability to cast magical spells. For such to occur, the individual Plague Priest had to accomplish a great deed in order to attract the attention of the Horned Rat. Of course, such attention is rarely a good thing. The Skaven deity can as easily (and capriciously) destroy the upstart as reward the Priest for its efforts. When the latter does occur, the Plague Priest becomes a very powerful creature (equal to a Level 3 sorcerer in magical ability).
