Deathmaster Snikch

Deathmaster Snikch is regarded as the best Assassin of Clan Eshin. [1a]

He is the prime agent of Nightlord Sneek, the clan lord of Clan Eshin who ensures that no-one is sure about his whereabouts, and Snikch has appeared all over the Old World.[3a]

Snikch often leaves his distinctive symbol besides the heads of his victims, traced in blood, but only when his master orders. Other victims are attributed to him but are not certain including the Celestial Wizard Heinrich Frisen and the entire household of Frederick Hasselhoffen. [1a] He killed the Grail Knight Boragild of L'Anguille, severing his spine as he prayed. [2b]

History

He lurked within Karaz-a-Karak for a winter, preying on the inhabitants [2a] including two sons and the daughter of High King Thorgrim Grudgebearer himself. As they were unable track him down, a number of Dwarfs joined the Slayer cult and his name was entered as the Gorakthag-throk - the murder-deamon of darkness. When the Dwarfs sealed the entire city, Snikch still managed to escape. [2b]

Storm of Chaos

As Archaon pushed towards Middenheim, he returned to the Old World bringing with him, Triad adepts he had personally trained. He then met with Throt the Unclean and purchased a vast burrowing monster. [2b]

Weapons and Equipment

He carries three Weeping Blades, holding one by his tail and each of which is more powerful than a normal blade of its type. He also wears the Bands of Power which allows him to boost his strength immensely and the Cloak of Shadows to assist his already formidable stealth. [1a]
