Skaven

The Skaven, (pronounced "SKAY-ven") sometimes known as the ratmen, the Ratkin, the "Children of the Horned Rat,"[1a] or the "Underfolk,"[7a] are a malevolent and diabolical race of large, intelligent, humanoid rats that inhabit a massive, inter-continental, subterranean empire known in their tongue simply as the "Under-Empire."[2j] At the very heart of Skavendom lies the horrific underground city of Skavenblight in the southern Old World,[2h] the ratmen's capital and the probable birthplace of the Skaven race.
