Im pretty sure some people was certain the arms holding and pouring potions was nighthaunt.
But unless we see some specific detail, like some votann weapons that give it away (happened more than once) its just speculation anyway.
I really hope they can stop cluttering the rumor pics with Votann now. Its feels like a constant stream of releases and updates for every possible game system since their return to the setting.

So telling him he's the smartest part of an Ork army is an insult?

The claw is weird. The hard edges make it look like it might be carved. It could be the base of a staff or other hafted weapon? You can see the wraps at the top of the pic.

I’m not entirely sure that’s a haft up the top end. It could be plaited hair?

So the hand is a hair accessory?

I could see that, but still think it’s a haft of some type, with a leather wrap for grip.

Could be a whip tip? So not plaited hair, but plaited leather or hide.

Is the wrap the same style the Kurnothi use?

I reckon they've whited out the right hand side of the picture, and that claw is actually leaning against something, like a horse's flank as if this is more saddle decorations.

So it's Elf-adjacent. Looks very Wood Elven, looks like it's a bronze colour with silvery claws.

I do like the idea of it being a Kislev rumour just because that would be great.

IRON CLAW
​挝
Iron Claw Weapon
T'IEH CHAO | TIEZHAO
The Iron Claw is a traditional specialty mace that has a head shaped like a claw. These claws are most often made to look like the hands of Dragons, Eagles, or a Human hand held in various postures or sometimes holding a Calligraphy Pen as a point. These unique Maces are designed to have options in striking points such as the finger-tips, back of the hand, or the blade of the claw.

Grand Cathay Perhaps?
