A Rotting Promethean as depicted in Total War: Warhammer II.[1]
Rotting Prometheans are the Undead husks of Prometheans, a monstrously large, crab-like species native to Lustria, that have been raised from death by the Undead forces of the Vampire Coast and the Zombie Pirates.[1]
Role[]
There are many wondrous and dangerous creatures that dwell beneath the waves of the Known World. From fire-breathing Sea Dragons to the ravaging Kraken of the Great Ocean, the sea's bounty is truly as varied as that of land-going life. Once dead, however, even the most belligerent creatures become infinitely more controllable to the seafaring necromancers that terrorise the oceans.[1]

The Lustrian coastline is home to many such useful sea monsters, including the giant, crab-like Prometheans which scuttle across the more shallower regions of the continent's surrounding ocean floors. Standing as tall as fully-grown Men, and with pincers that can dismember a man like giant scissors, they are distant cousins of the much larger and rarer Leviathans.[1]
Being relatively common in their known habitats, Prometheans are often targeted by Undead Pirate fleets to be killed, reanimated, and brought into their fighting ranks, either as mounts or as monstrous combatants in their own right.[1]
Rotting Promethean Gunnery Mob[]
A Rotting Promethean Gunnery Mob is a Rotting Promethean who is used by Zombie Pirate Gunnery Mobs as a mount, riding upon the arthropod's shell and wielding devastating Blunderbusses, enhancing the Rotting Promethean's melee prowess with the deadly range of firearms. A stampede of crab-like, Undead monsters is all the more frightening when accompanied by the hisses and cracks of blackpowder weapons.[1]
