Clan Eshin is amongst the greatest of the Skaven Clans. Clan Eshin was for a long period of Skaven history lost in the lands of Cathay and Nippon to the east. When they returned to Skavenblight they had mastered the arts of stealth and murder.
Young recruits of Eshin are called night runners, formed into large units of lightly equipped skirmishers who attempt to disrupt the enemy. The night runners are famed for their invariably huge casualties, but this is the Eshin way of ensuring only the fastest, smartest, and most vicious remain to become the elite gutter runners, who are well equipped and excellently trained infiltrators who make use of multiple knives, throwing blades and deadly poisons. The greatest Eshin are the assassins, stealthy warriors who are expert fighters trained and equipped to slay the mightiest hero.
