after taking a look at a recent topic ive decided i love it, but what i really need is the fluff for it if possible please
Wanted to make one close to the fluff for them, but needed an idea of its size, looks and how it moves.
Any fluff possible would be a great help

When I get home I'll pull out the Codex and see what I can give you.

Army Book: Skaven, Pg. 56: "The procession was not of manacled slaves, but instead of many creaking wagons, which between them bore a single chained beast. At long last one of the pallid and deep-tunnelling Blindwyrms that exist in the depths of the world had been caught.

It was not easy force-feeding such a creature warpstone until the swollen, mutating beast could be cut and grafted. Keeping the Blindwyrm alive during the complicated operations proved difficult and several times the great writhing creature had to be resuscitated with jolts of warp-lightning. There were many experiments, but only Rat Ogre components had the strength to bond - other attachments withered and died."

"The Hell Pit Abomination is a living mountain of misshapen flesh. The creature moves in a rippling tide of unnatural spasms, writhing worm-like and using its many limbs to pull and drag its hideous bulk forward. Various mechanical bits, such as wheels, cogs, and fluid-pumps have been grafted into the beast to ensure it moves at optimal speed and that the warpstone mutated growth agents are regularly injected into the beast's hyper-fast metabolism. A multitude of heads dart out of the lumpen mound of muscle and bone at the behemoth's fore.The heads that snake out are all vermin-like, but some glisten hairlessly, like unborn rat monstrosities. Many have eyes, but no few are blind, twisting and craning to catch the scent of prey, hissing and snapping at the air with razor-sharp incisors."

There's a bit more about "Vast boulder-sized fists" and how it rises from the dead, but that's the most descriptive parts.

Thank you very much platuan
Time to start drawing up some concept sketches
