Packmaster

"The Giant Rats and Rat Ogres of Clan Moulder are driven and controlled by Skaven who show a talent for mastering beasts. They are called Packmasters, and the skill they display when controlling their foul pets is without compare. Wielding whips, the Packmasters steer their charges into the enemy formations in which they cancause the most damage."

- Steffan Paulus Adelhof, Scholar of Wolfenburg

Skaven Packmasters drive packs of ravening beasts into battle, using whips and intimidation in order to spur their charges into a frenzy of teeth and claws. These beasts include swarms of rats, as well as mutated Giant Rats and horrific Rat Ogres of every description. The Packmasters display no fear of the creatures that they control, for to do so is to invite the beasts to turn on them. Even so, no beast is entirely predictable, and even a veteran Packmaster runs the constant risk of dying beneath his charges’ teeth and claws.
