Elite Henchmen

Vermin Lord

A Vermin Lord is a terrible thing to witness. It is a Daemon of the Horned Rat, an unstoppable juggernaut and living avatar of His will. Only the Grey Seers know how to summon a Vermin Lord. This they remind other Skaven of, for such a reminder quickly cows even Warlords- but the Grey Seers secretly hate and fear summoning a Vermin Lord, for the Vermin Lord is equal in power to the Greater Daemons of Chaos, but with all the treacherous nature one might expect of an avatar of the Horned One.

Hell Pit Abomination

The Hell Pit Abomination is exactly that: an abomination. It is a Blindwyrm- a pallid and massive burrower of the deeps- enslaved by the Skaven, force-fed warpstone and implanted with all kinds of horrific devices and machinery. It is nearly unstoppable in battle.

Avalanche of Flesh. (Counts as Warhammer without the Heavy or Slow Qualities.)

Special Rules:
Shambling Horror. Whenever you roll triples when rolling to see how far the Hell Pit Abomination moves, roll a 1d5 and compare to the chart below:

Roll	Effect	Name
1	Fluid Injected!	The Abomination moves the listed distance, but also gains +1 Strength for the rest of the Encounter as special fluids pump into its body. Future results of 'Fluid Injected!' have no effect.
2-4	Blind Fury	The Abomination's brains fight for dominance. It moves the listance distance, but in a random direction. Anything in its path counts as taking a single hit from the Avalanche of Flesh.
5	Grinding Halt	The Abomination does not move at all.

Too Horrible to Die. Whenever the Hell Pit is incapacitated by a non-Flaming attack, roll a 1d5. On a roll of 1, it suddenly jolts back to life, instantly regaining 1d5 wounds.
