Queek Headtaker

Queek is a sadistic, violent, and shockingly egotistical skaven, showing actual interest in hygiene. He shows symptoms of psychosis, talking to the heads on his trophy rack as if they were people. Completely insane and psychotic, he's utterly sadistic and has no regard for any lives, apart from of his master, and his subordinate, Ska Bloodtail. Shows empathy towards his trusted men, a rare trait among the treacherous Skaven. Queek is a temperamental individual who prefers leading armies and killing enemies in battle to the schemes and scummy tactics of his fellow Skaven, a trait he really hates. Gnadwell is more then fine with this, using Queek as an attack dog and enforcer, sending him to take care of threats to his power that require no subtlety. Not only is Queek an egomaniac, he's so insane he once declared war on a cloud.

He's extremely misogynistic, though only because skaven females are all mutant abominations, so most races having normal females confuses and alarms him. He's very gay in a weird way, where he sees women as only for making offspring, and men for relationships.

While most Skaven are cowardly creatures as a rule, and whilst some might be occasionally more brave than others, Queek is notable for being unnaturally brave and bold. This is entirely due to Queek's love of violence, and he is so eager to kill that he leads from the front.

Queek, like many Skaven before him, was born unto this world within the many Breeding Pits owned by the burly warriors of Clan Mors. Queek's litter was born large and black-furred, a sign that these Skaven would grow up to be true killers within the violent and unstable society of their Clan. However, Queek was by-far the largest of his lot, and in time, he eventually devoured his own brothers even before he opened his eyes or fully grew out his fur. Seeing great potential within Queek, Warlord Gnawdwell personally took Queek under his wing and trained him extensively to be his new protegee. As such, Queek was given the finest luxury that can be afforded by a Skaven of such high status.

He was given the best food, the greatest arms and armor, and was hand-reared by Gnawdwell personally to become the ultimate warrior. When Queek grew to be 4 years-old, the young Skaven has arisen swiftly through the ranks and earned himself a string of victories to his name. The majority of Queek's exploits have always been in the tunnels, lairs and caves beneath the surface of the Worlds Edge Mountains. The Warlord's fame grew exponentially as word of his deeds and conquest spread across the length of the Under-Empire.

Queek has been groomed by Gnawdwell from the moment of his birth to be the ultimate warrior, provided with the best armour and weapons, protecting him from the other Lords of Decay , and also staging assassination attempts to keep him on his toes. Queek is an uncommonly bloodthirsty and egotistical warrior whose need to conquer even the most impossible challenges has since earned him an infamy amongst the annals of Skaven history as the legendary Headtaker, the Dwarf-Smiter, the greatest Warlord to have ever graced the tunnels of Skavendom.

Queek's temper is infamous amongst both his enemy and allies, having fought, defeated and survived almost every challenge that was thrown against him. Upon his trophy rack consists of the heads of all those that have challenged Queek in the past, such as the head of King Krug Ironhand of Karak Drazh, Warlord Ikit Scratch of Fester Spike, Warlord Sleek Sharpwit of Clan Mors and the hands of Baron Albrecht Kraus of Averland amongst other noteworthy challengers.

Within his powerbase underneath the once majestic stronghold of Karak Eight Peaks, Queek had been fighting a never-ending war of attrition against the battle-hardened Dwarf armies of King Belegar Ironhammer and the Greenskin hordes of Warlord Skarsnik. A powerful warrior in his own right, Queek's deeds have since garnered him the respect of the Orcs, the fears of the Goblins and the eternal hatred of the Dwarfs.

ueek's personality can be associated to that of a powder-keg; unpredictable and dangerous. It is said that Queek can not be bribed, that he didn’t care for threats and that he led armies fearlessly from the front. Unnaturally fearless and bloodthirsty with an over-flatted ego to match, Queek considers himself the greatest Warlord to have ever lived, as any self-respecting Skaven should. However, unlike many other Skaven Warlords before him, Queek has been known to back-up these claims as willingly as he is to boast about them, as shown with the many heads that now decorate his trophy rack. Indeed, Queek has shown an unnatural interest in both finding and fighting the strongest enemy he can find. From massive Black Orcs to Dwarf Thanes and rival Skaven Warlords, Queek has fought and defeated each and every one of them.

Alongside his infamy as a great warrior, Queek had also earned himself a reputation for madness. Queek has a disturbing affection for his collection of severed heads he keeps upon his trophy rack. Those that would dare to touch his prized possessions have had their wrist cut off by Queek personally. At times, Queek has been seen talking to these heads when nobody else is looking, and at times even when they are, as if the skulls themselves still retain the souls of those he decapitated in ritual combat, giving the Warlord advice on how best to destroy his enemies.

Although Queek is a magnificent warrior, the Warlord hasn't been readily known for his cunning, if he has any at all. Queek is as thick as he is bloodthirsty, preferring a daring frontal assault rather then to use wiser and more efficient means of attacks. In comparison to other Skaven, Queek dislikes scheming and intrigue of any kind, which is one of the great reasons why the Warlord has a great distrust of the politically-minded Grey Seers. Even Lord Gnawdwell has expressed his disappointment to Queek's rather inept intellect for things other then fighting, often remarking the Warlord as a dangerous yet blunt instrument.

Nevertheless, Queek's combat skill, coupled with his immense bravery and fearlessness in battle has granted him many great victories. When Queek goes to battle, he is often accompanied by a retinue of crimson-armored Stormvermins known as the Red Guard, who is led by his second-in-command Ska Bloodtail, an unnaturally loyal and obedient Skaven that is larger then even Queek himself.

Queek has smooth black fur, a tall, strong, muscular, powerfully built body, red eyes, a rodent appearance (like all Skaven), and wears ragged clothes, chainmail, and crude yet effective segmented red platemail, upon which rests a rack of severed heads and skulls. His teeth are yellowing, with prominent front teeth as part of his rat head. He has a long tail. His paws, both hands and feet, are exposed fully.
