Ikit Claw Lore TW: Warhammer

[@ikitclaw4852]

hmm, I think this one is best-best, very strong and powerful I heard, hmhmhmhm and han-handsome

[@sebastianmeszarosalvarez1740]

To anwnser your thought on how Ikit claw and the members of the council of thirteenen live so long, it is because they are able to drain the life source of shaven slaves through a machine: The reference is in the black library book “rise of the horned rat” where lord gnawdwell explains to queek how he has lived so long and telling him how he could aswell as long as he successfully captured Karnak eight peaks for clan mors

[@Lilliathi]

"shaven slaves" Kinky.

[@boneman-calciumenjoyer8290]

@@Lilliathi na, we're not talking about that kind of slave, don't get me wrong, skaven have that too, but we're talking lowlife skaven meatshields here.

[@affenbauch]

That pesky slaves are naked-shaven, that's the most important-secret part-ingredient! Yes-YESSS! 😅

[@beastwarsFTW]

I thought Skaven actually have the potential to live long lives but most die of "acedently".

[@havoc1134]

A one hour video on a single character? Good sir, you are giving Arch Warhammer a run for his money. Good stuff!

[@jonblankenship8363]

same thing with sotek. arch better be careful he's got some stiff competition. (ps i still love arch but i wish he'd stop being political in his videos and just keep to lore)

[@lordinquisitor6233]

Jon Blankenship I completely agree

[@lordinquisitor6233]

Arch is good for summary but inept makes a good narrative

[@masterwesty]

Inept is far more likeable than Arch in my opinion.

[@lordinquisitor6233]

Master Westy problem with arch is he can’t resist sticking his politics in every video

[@Gorvar100]

So.....Ikkit Claw is Skaven Iron Man?

[@King33337]

Gorvar The Dinoman Yup kind of...

[@King33337]

He invents new tech like Tony Stark too except he is a giant walking rat.... Haha 😆

[@King33337]

Also kind of like Darth Vader as his body got wrecked and he build an armour suit for it.

[@slacxthemad9683]

I see

[@philosophyfrog2653]

@@King33337 You mean like Tony Stark? To be fair Iron Man is probably the best analogy you can get.

[@MrHiglon]

Man I love your stuff dude, no one tells these stories as cool as you do.

[@Admiralkirk95]

Took nearly a whole year after this video, two new factions who all got four LL and got regiments of renown, plus several campaign updates to old races for Ikit to FINALLY find his way into the game as the fourth skaven lord. And alog with him much needed additions to the skaven and a much needed update to the skaven campaign mechanics.

[@JD-275]

Thank you for this

[@Rukdug]

Something I just realized. Assuming the Council of Thirteen has remained the same since the Horned Rat appeared, then Ikkit Claw is (unless there’s some other lore I’m missing) one of only 13 Skaven still alive who has actually SEEN the Horned Rat. Which is interesting to note. Also, if we see Ikkit as a legendary lord, maybe we’ll get his automatons as regiment of renown. Just have them be a special unit of Stormvermin that are unbreakable and have high armor values. That would be pretty cool, right?

[@goodman4966]

HERESY!

[@sebastianmeszarosalvarez1740]

Jamie Wanless the origin I also members dissapoininted the great horned rat so much that he casted them down an eternal abysss. But after many years the horned rat came back to them and merged them to become Skreech Verminking the first ver I lord and the greatest

[@lordinquisitor6233]

Jamie Wanless And they would be unbreakable

[@aleph1057]

I hope you are happy with the latest dlc announcement :)

[@mk_gamíng0609]

Ikkit is not on the council,

[@bezerker66691]

Excellent narration, and a great story. I will be sharing this with all my Warhammer buddy's. Thank you for your hard work.

[@sebastianfarkas1133]

Hi inept general, just wanted to save I absolutely love your videos. You are by far my favorite total war Warhammer more KZbinr! You always bring so much energy when you read and make it very easy for me to visualize the battles and happenings in the lore. You also manage to keep it casual and not be over the top serious. Keep up the videos man, I’ve proudly been watching them for ages now.

[@Telsker_Sonpos]

Ikit Claw is my favorite skaven. So badass!

[@philosophyfrog2653]

Indeed he is but so is Lord Skrolk. The other skaven lords have nothing on them.

[@TheVanillaBandit]

Queek Headtaker wants a few fucken’ words, kings

[@cori-e2i]

Warp lightning cannon has joined the channel

[@hermankrylov576]

Lol Leonid reference "This is madness" "No, this is doom sphere"

[@Plywerd6]

It's fairly amusing how well Ikit can actually fight in melee. He employs a bunch of tricks, sure, but it says a lot about his ingenuity.

[@lordinquisitor6233]

The rat who made a nuke, only in warhammer. I was expecting thanqol as next skaven lord given his popularity

[@CoyoteCamouflage]

The biggest issue with introducing Thanquol is that there isn't a great set of units to introduce. Ikit would be amazing because he fits naturally into an introduction of numerous Skyre units. I still want my *Jezzails*.

[@lordinquisitor6233]

CoyoteCamouflage I mean I’d be happy either way, but I can guess they will introduce him with the skyre tech

[@danielkorladis7869]

Why not both?

[@lordinquisitor6233]

Daniel Brownson yeah I’d like that

[@James-sk4db]

I think thanquol, gotrick and felix if they are introduced will be with a dogs of war DLC. Thanquol obviously would be a shaven lord but the other two could be dogs of war to allow for accuratish lore as they fought with so many differing races and units.

[@tylerwitte4307]

Always a pleasure to listen to your storytelling

[@darthplagueis13]

Ikit would make for such an interesting Legendary lord in TW Warhammer. They could actually make him the only lord to have a standard ranged attack, a lore of magic and also decent melee capabilities. He'd probably be expensive af to pick in multiplayer but there's always some stuff you can cut, spells like cracks call for example.

[@braincollapse6]

hell yeah!

[@Jayden-zq6fj]

you hit the nail on the head haha

[@tristan7848]

I was starving for thicc lore - Inept and Sotek haven't posted too much over the last few weeks. Maybe all the content creators are waiting for the supposed May content release?

[@magnusthered8153]

Tristan check out Arch Warhammer

[@bvonk4812]

l Chopper yes he is amazing

[@GruwskiTheDogski]

ITS A TRAP.

[@goodman4966]

HERESY!

[@ravoln2457]

Well Arch and Sotek both just released new videos. Arch doing another one of his Horus heresy series and Sotek doing Chaos dwarves.

[@N11Ckk123472]

Playing my first ME Campaign with Ikit listening to this.

[@devinespinoza9124]

I just started my first playthrough with him also, I'm loving his rattling guns and warplock jezzeils

[@foxholeartist]

Just randomly found this channel and now I am a fan. Amazing content

[@RyanTheScar]

Nice one! Gonna enjoy this lore on the inventor of the Ratomic bomb

[@Der_Dekanter]

YES YES. My second favourite race/faction in Fantasy Warhammer

[@warycrow4130]

I love how in depth your videos are, most lore channels like arch warhammer or loremaster of sotek dont usually go so far in depth which is perfectly fine but I feel like I get a better feel for the characters from your videos.

[@Dar2Jee]

after bingewatching the druchi legendary lord vids on this channel ikit seems kinda sane

[@grassytiger]

That was awesome to listen to, I don't know much about warhammer lore but that was sick and full of cool information I didn't know.

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

The first verminators had rubber skin, we spotted them easy but these are new, twitchy whiskers, bad musk glands everything.

[@Sindibad007]

My favorite loremaster

[@lordinquisitor6233]

I’d love if there was a quest where you have to go out and gather resources to make the doomsphere, maybe if he is included in vortex, he would be like the tomb kings, not interested in the vortex but scouring the map for resources to build the doomsphere hopefully with custom cutscenes and ikkit narrating his creation: I’d love CA to do that

[@DoseofTruth]

Yes

[@Donnie8888]

Just who was this blonde dwarf? He's a true dawi hero.

[@Aethgeir]

Klarak Bronzehammer, like Karak Angkul, I don't think he appears anywhere other than the books though.

[@Donnie8888]

Now also known as "Goldbeard Scheme-Thwarter"

[@alexhale6582]

I know this is old but lol, Ikit makes Mengele look like Patch Adams is an amazing analogy

[@GaurdsmanJoe]

Love me some Ikit Claw! Thank you sir

[@thegametroll6264]

Could you please do a lengthy lore video on thanquol and bone ripper? I can't find any good ones anywhere and your narrations are some of my favorites.

[@aslan4663]

These are pretty much just audio books and I love it.

[@tricks177]

Dude, has anyone told you that you sound like Patches? It's amazing! I could listen to these lore videos all day tbh

[@user-dp2fq9yw7v]

This was ….AMAZING!!!!! Thank you!

[@calebbridges2597]

many don't realize that master splinter from tmnt fought with the great vermintide including the skaven civil war he was young once and indeed like many of his kind thick headed he at certain points clashed with pickle rick the two formed a bitter rivalry they never could quite finish their feud they would both eventually retire never telling those who asked for the horrors they had seen time passed... and eventually they faded into legend...

[@foggy9900]

clan skryre should have been playable to begin with. probably instead of mors.

[@InquisitorThomas]

foggy9900 To be fair based on how the running trend of all the other races the starting pairs of lords are a Melee lord and a caster lord or a melee lord and a monstrous lord, and Queek is the Skaven's best melee lord.

[@jasonjacobs176]

Bro an hour long lore video with Inept General?! Yes fucking please; hell I think I’ll be back for seconds...

[@boedhisenior5361]

The skaven remind me of grunts from halo.. they both reproduce extremely fast and never seem to end plues they also have low leadership. I think that's why the skaven are my favorite race in WH2

[@hallo-mt5tx]

holy shit your skaven Imitation is really good if its actually you

[@mzm1457]

Wow...this is awesome! You should do audiobooks if you don't already!

[@alecadanglao8386]

I think i found my favourite skaven lord hope he gets added into TW: WH2

[@devinespinoza9124]

@Aggressive Tubesock 😂

[@BaileyBecca]

Is there a video in Thr blond dwarf

[@zach1122]

Lol the patch Adams comment cracked me up

[@morningnapalm9963]

Inspector Gadgets greatest foe

[@zefyrisd69]

"Count as level 3 wizard?" Are yo usure of that? He was nerfed then, because he used to be level 4 in earlier editions (and that's far more logical with his lore than a mere level 3). I still have the WH army for skaven, and just checked, it's written as level 4.

[@CFkatehudson]

I think ikit had greenskin spells back in 4th as well as the 8 lores along with shaven and other lores to choose from

[@AcidicDeluge]

Awesome Video, would love to see him in Warhammer 2

[@shrapnel8869]

how significant is caster level 3? whats the max, and how common is 3?

[@Jason.Goldstriker]

His immortality comes from souls thats how witches and warlocks get there powerd by taking the years that another had left

[@JefferyBlue]

Woot. DLC FTW!!!!!!

[@James-sk4db]

Time for some good ol' Ikkit Clore ;) noone else had made the pun so it had to be done

[@King33337]

Skaven clans are like Japanese clans in the Sengoku Jidai

[@Morec0]

[@KingofGeo]

Skaven have a great education system

[@tictcha612]

Nice video !

Run ? Skiver.....?.........flee?????....

[@PatchworkUmbral]

Do you know if there is enough information for a video on Lord Skrolk?

[@Erebus2075]

Badly wanted clan skryer, far more than what we got; which was still awesome but not as awesome as clan skryer and thanquol

[@goblin8557]

We didn't get some of the units you mentioned... like the Automatas :((((

[@Bearyboo87]

Well now I am even more psyched for warp-punk power armor, really cannot believe we didn't start with all the Skyre stuff #screwclanpestilence

[@lukatroha58]

Could you please do a lore video on Belegar Ironhammer somewhere in the near future please?

[@victorazumah1169]

Makes for a good bedtime story

Can you make one about Grey Seer Thanquol, and love your work :D

[@benrussell1476]

YAS! looking forward to this!

[@nagashtheundyingking4404]

i am guessing he would start in skavenblight?

[@Archon3960]

Arch Warhammer (or rather just Arch nowadays) did a lore video on Ikit Claw 2 months ago. It doesn't come close to the quality of this video. :/

[@thegreatbookofgrudges6953]

still waiting for Skryre toys

[@ietsbram]

boi that was something else

[@jonblankenship8363]

great video IG, but have you thought about making a lore video about cathay? Attempt #1

[@nagashtheundyingking4404]

hey genneral sir any hope for a Skaven campaign after the food changes?

[@r4tt583]

Wn is the next stream?

[@jordansuco7895]

Yes yes more skaven inept more videos!!!!!!

[@childofslaanesh1251]

hey inept, are skaven actually short lived, or do they just not make it to an old age do to getting murdered?

[@CoyoteCamouflage]

I read a short story that strongly implied that Skaven have roughly human-like lifepspans, though a few of them have found ways to prolong their lives. That may not be canon these days, though.

[@thegreatbookofgrudges6953]

I remember he mention Sleek's age around 12 years old before getting slain by Queek in Queek's video. he's really old.

[@marcusbergman6116]

Skaven are fully adult by the age own 18 to 24 months, and can live in that adult state naturally for a few decades at best. There are obviously some methods to pass this weakness, though.

[@Carandini]

The white-furred grey seers, a mutation of the standard skaven, have longer life-spans, perhaps able to reach 40 or 50 before they peter out. Unless of course they find other means to prolong themselves.. Some of the plague priests of Pestilens are actually horned grey seer whelps that the disease worshipping heretics refused to turn over to the Order of Grey Seers.

[@rabsrabble5415]
