Crooked Moon

Orcs and Goblins are the scourge of the Old World. Orcs are built for violence; Goblins, by contrast, are smaller but more cunning. Collectively known as Greenskins, they are an aggressive and brutal race with an unquenchable love of fighting. While the Greenskins have made lairs in ransacked Dwarfholds, they can be found across the Old World – the majority residing in the arid Badlands, mainly fighting amongst themselves and only coming together when the call to Waaagh! goes out.

One such occasion is now, and with a strong Warboss to unite the tribes, the time has surely come to unleash da Green Tide and ravage the lands of both humies and stunties alike! For such are the demands of Gork and Mork – and who would go against the word of da Green Godz? Exactly. Waaagh!

• (wh_dlc06_political_party_skarsnik_ruler)
  Skarsnik plunders the wealth of mighty Mount Gunbad, gathering Greenskin allies as he prepares for the journey through the World's Edge Mountains to Karak Eight Peaks. Throughout all of history, very few Goblins have risen to the top of the Greenskin food chain. Skarsnik is one of them. He is a Night Goblin whose supreme cunning and malign intellect far surpasses that of his peers. It is this gift, and the presence of his incredibly loyal and eternally-hungry Cave Squig, Gobbla, that has allowed him to climb the brutal hierarchy of the Crooked Moon tribe and remain at the top. Orcs typically struggle to take orders or be subservient to Goblins. Naturally, a few have tried to usurp Skarsnik, but needless to say that Gobbla ate especially well on such occasions - the sneaky Night Goblin’s cunning far outweighing an Orc’s brutal and direct challenge.
  
  Whilst Skarsnik has retained an iron grip on his tribe, his real achievement (the one for which he is hated by both Dwarfs and Skaven alike) is his domination of Karak Eight Peaks, the former Dwarf mountain fortress. The self-proclaimed 'Warlord of the Eight Peaks' has controlled the surface for years, something which has enraged the stunties beyond forbearance!
  
  Provoking the Dwarfs, or any of the Warlord’s many enemies, is what Skarsnik does best. A master of deception, he captures his foes and uses their tortured screams or body parts (scalped beards for stunties) to bait his ever-more devious traps. His targets almost always take the lure, as they are simply not used to Greenskins having such an intricate take on warfare. However, as Skarsnik’s evil reputation continues to grow, fewer adversaries dare underestimate him. Truly, the Warlord of the Eight Peaks is one to be feared!
  
  Pernicious Precision
  Skarsnik is a meddlesome and cunning Night Goblin, preferring to taunt and torment his opponents rather than swiftly killing them. Ever the sneakiest of his kind, he leads his forces on feints and duplicitous manoeuvres that leave his enemies bewildered, beleaguered, and - eventually - destroyed.
