Thanquol

"Brother Skavens! Consider this...Until the coming of Vermek Skab, the Council of Thirteen placed me in command of this army. Since Vermek Skab is sadly no longer with us, the leaders place in the rear must still fall to me by edict of the Council. Of course, if any of you wishes to challenge the Council's ruling I will notify them of this at once."

- Grey Seer Thanquol, taking command of the Nuln Invasion force as Supreme Commander



Grey Seer Thanquol is a grey-furred horned Skaven sorceror of phenomenal power,  an expert in the Dark Arts of Magic, and a mastermind of subterfuge and deceit. Arguably one of the most talented and masteful minds in the entire Under-Empire, Thanquol is a Skaven sorceror of considerable knowledge and influence. Along with his title as Grey Seer, Thanquol is one of the Council of Thirteens most favoured of messenger and ambassador, representing the Council of Thirteens wishes and demands on his numerous missions into different parts of the Under-Empire. A Skaven of great cunning, Thanquol has been at the fore-front of causing misery and mayhem to the enemies of the Skaven race, having been the very same Skaven that became the Supreme Commander of the Skaven force invading Nuln, the saviour of the great Clan Moulder city of Hell Pit, the destroyer of the great Skaven city of Under-Altdorf, the killer of the great Lizardmen Prophet of Sotek, and the summoner of the great Khornate Bloodthirster Skarband.

Although his exploits were grandious and many, most of them have ended in near complete distator, due to his many enemies that has twarted his plan time and again, and sometimes his exploits were the result of Thanquol extreme incompetence and paranoia. As a reward for is somewhat successful missions, Thanquol was rewarded a Rat Ogre by the Council, naming him Boneripper -- a name he continues to use for everyone of his Rat Ogre bodyguards. He is also the main nemesis of the two great heroes Gotrek and Felix.
