I wanna send lots of hugs and kisses to the skaven. :3 I'm a such fangirl of little floofs. :3

… none of those words describe him. 

at all.

sometimes it’s okay for a character to just be a horrifying, brutish monster who’s actively leaking pus and has about four dozen cancers. It can be extremely disheartening to spend so much time and effort creating something only for someone else to pigeon-hole it into what they want it to be.

Wait, if Skirk jumped ship, shouldn’t he fear for his life? The Horned Rat is the chaos god who showed itself to its followers and demanded their obedience, anyone who didn’t immediately submit was pretty much deleted from existence. With a history of killing off defectors personally, hows Skirk still around? I’m super into the character now my dude.

Just Lokas Today at 9:49 AM

Short answer: Skirk didn’t defect. At least not openly. He continued to follow the orders of his superiors, continued to fight in the name of the horned rat and on the side worked on a project to make a teleporter. Ostensibly, all in the name of the horned rat. And when it worked. Skirk jumped up and said “I’M SO FAITHFUL-BRAVE I WILL TEST IT PERSONALLY” and shunted his rat ass halfway across the universe to a new planet entirely. His minions involved in the project probably just assumed he was dead after the machine did what most skaven machines do after success and exploded.

Is it because his lifespan is longer than average or because he's better at staying alive than the others ? (I'm betting a lot on the second option, honestly)

The latter! His expected lifespan is the same as the rest of his species, he’s just very good at being better than the ones who die. He prides himself on it, in fact, and thinks all other skaven are stupid. The only reason he’s still around at all is because when the skaven’s god told them to kill their enemies by crashing a moon into their planet (y’know, killing themselves too), Skirk was the only one who went

hold up what

and then jumped ship ASAP
