Flayerkin are creatures created under the combined influence of the Realm of Chaos and the Skaven of Clan Moulder. They are partially human, but have masks covering their faces, metal hooks have been grafted onto their arms in place of hands, and heavy chains hang from a plate fused to their backs. In the armies of Chaos their purpose is to scale the walls of castles and fortified cities during sieges, hauling their chains up for other besiegers to climb, but they can also wield their sharp hooks with devastating power in combat.
When humans who follow Chaos leaders that fail, they are often given to the Skaven as punishment. The Skaven under Clan Moulder then operate on the humans, removing limbs and adding crude hooks, claws, spikes, and swords by bolting them on to the remaining body parts. On their backs, a large metal plate is fused to their spine. From the plate lay a large bulky metal chain used for either keeping the Flayerkins locked up when not in use, or they can be used as a siege weapon. They grapple up walls and towers, allowing others to climb up their back using the chain. As a final touch, the Skaven bolt a metal mask on the Flayerkin, usually covering most of their face except for small punch outs in the mask. When not being used as a siege weapon they become deadly troops, hacking their way through the enemy.
