Clan Rictus Command

Eshin Sorcerer

The Art of the Silent Death wasn’t the only thing Clan Eshin brought back when they returned from Cathay. A few Skaven delved into the black arts of magic. Blending what they already knew of the Warp with the techniques used by Cathay Sorcerers, they developed a new lore, one that serves to enhance their clan’s power and mystique. Eshin Sorcerers are mysterious, rare, and keep to themselves; they are well aware that the Grey Seers brook no competition from other Skaven spellcasters.
