Grey Seer: A Thanquol & Boneripper Novel (Warhammer)

Product Information

Das Buch beantwortet die Frage, die allen 'Felix und Gotrek'-Lesern schon immer auf der Seele brannte: Was machte der Graue Prophet Tanquol zwischen seinen Auftritten in Dämonenkrieger. Warhammer. Die Abenteuer von Gotrek und Felix 5 / Beastslayer (Warhammer Novels) und Warhammer. Die Abenteuer von Gotrek und Felix 10. Elfenslayer / Elfslayer (Warhammer Novels) ?

Given no other choice, Thanquol did as he promised and used all his considerable energy to summon a rift within the fabric of existence. Yet something went awry as Thanquol heard a voice from the otherworld. A dark formed materialized and a Daemon emerged from the portal. Images swirled through Thanquol’s mind. He could see the old grey seer sealed away inside Festerhole by the dwarfs. He could see the bitter old priest slowly starving away in his lair, his every thought turned against the Under-Empire which had forgotten and abandoned him. He could see the villain setting the Hand of Vecteek upon the table before him. He watched in disbelief as the long-dead sorcerer sank his fangs into the mummified artefact. In a few moments, the Hand was no more, consumed utterly by the starving grey seer. [7q] Hier kommt die Antwort. Natürlich versuchte er den Ruhm der Gehörnten Ratte zum Wohle der gesamten Skavenheit zu vermehren! Und natürlich stieß er dabei auf den Widerstand seiner nichtswürdigen Untergebenen und kleingeistigen Rivalen...

Grey Seer Thanquol, confronting his arch-nemesis Gotrek and Felix after 20 long years to only find out they don't recognize him. [11d] Grey Seer is the story of Thanquol, a Skaven grey seer from the Gotrek & Felix series. He is a powerful grey seer and has a fair amount of position in Skaven society, but has done enough bumbling (presumably in the Gotrek & Felix books--I've not read them, but they are alluded to a great deal) and created enough misfortune that the Council of 13, the rulers of Skaven society, send him on a quest to recover a lost Skaven artifact know as the Wormstone. Thanquol, however, plans to retrieve the Wormstone for himself for his own insidious plans.

Boneripper [1a], called " Bone-thing" by other Skaven, was a Rat Ogre, perhaps the best known of the named Rat Ogres among the Skaven. Owned by the infamous Grey Seer Thanquol, he acted as a mount and bodyguard, and his presence was often the difference between life and death for the Grey Seer. In truth, there have been many Bonerippers, as Thanquol's plots often saw his bodyguard slain in Thanquol's stead. [3a] You have been a capable servant, Grey Seer Thanquol. The Councils finds itself in need of a dispo - a competent servant for a matter of utmost delicacy..." Clans Skryre weapon teams are vital to protecting these large, key units. An opponent might want to charge those 60 Clanrats with something like Witch Aelves , but if there’s a Warpfire Thrower sitting just behind them, the prospect of a lot of mortal wounds from Unleash Hell before they get to fight might just make them think twice. As a massive Rat Ogre, the original Boneripper was a completely (more or less) organic being. He was a three-armed monster, one arm bearing a sword, the other a firearm, and the final limb ending in a set of fearsome claws. The head of the beast was skeletal with fearsome red eyes, feeding into a shaggy mane of fur. [2b] Das Buch ist nicht von William King und daher hat sich Thanquol ein wenig verändert. Dieser ist etwas vorsichtiger und etwas weniger Größenwahnsinnig als der, den wir aus den 'Felix und Gotrek'-Romanen kennen. (Könnte das ein psychische Spätfolge der Traumatisierung durch einen gewissen elenden Zwerg sein?).
