Skaven/Ratman names


With an impending Songs Of Blades campaign coming up, so comes the need to make my skaven identifiable. I could be boring and just issue names as "rat-A", "rat-B", etc, but half the fun of a campaign game is watching the warband members develop. There should be a sense of loss when a member, who has aquired skills and advances falls in battle, or when they claim a decissive strike or victory is scored. Basically names personalise the figures and its more fun!

After a quick google, and running across a few name generators, I happened upon this name generating list from a now (seemingly) defunct Skaven themed forum "The Eshin From The East". So thanks to Admin from there for posting this up - your work lives on:

  1. Back in the day, one of my Skaven Blood Bowlers was called Des Lineman, but I suspect I may have been going for a different feel.
