Ikit Claw was born brilliant and broken, and Clan Skryre, which prizes the first and has machines for the second, rebuilt him into its Chief Warlock. Sheathed in a soot-blackened iron frame that does the work of his withered limbs, trailing cables, pistons, and the stink of scorched warpstone, he is less a rat in armor than a laboratory that walks.
His genius is beyond dispute, even among rivals who pray nightly for his forge to explode. Warp lightning engines, poisoned-wind refinements, devices that fold distance or unmake matter: the fruits of Ikit's workshops arm all of skavendom, while the Chief Warlock quietly reserves the best and worst of his inventions for himself.
What truly separates Ikit Claw from the common run of warlock engineers is patience. Most skaven scheme for the next hour; Ikit thinks in centuries, and every project, patron, and betrayal is one component in a single life-spanning design: the construction of a weapon final enough to crack a realm, and the guarantee that when it fires, every living thing will know whose claw was on the trigger.
