Will we at least get a female Skaven generic hero?

[Abandon Reason]

I know female Skaven are just baby factories but if a Skaven is born with horned rat gifts, either white fur or horns, it kinda gets immunity to standard cultural customs and gets important role within society.
I think there even was female Skaven like that in RPG story.
Make her Grey Seer's servant or something, caster hero or something.
I just don't want full "♥♥♥♥" roster.

This is not feminism nor SJW thing, i don't care about those so don't bring that up.

Lizardmen have no gender, they're basically bio-robots that are grown in vats.

We do know that they are all pretty much male as Slann refer to themselves and the rest of their culture as 'he/him' and seemingly refer to almost anyone they encounter when speaking other's languages as 'he/him' and 'they/them'... so yeah while they don't have reproductive use of being male... it's pretty safe to assume that Lizardmen... are men.

Actually from what you said it is safe to say they use the masculine term when speaking. That's it.

not knowing the Lore and asking for more female Lords just for the sake of it ....

So... You are saying gender is a construct independent of biological sex and we should respect the pronounds people choose for themselves? Glad you agree with us progressives

People really want to play that 12 foot bloated blind tower of baby making mechines it seems, or an infertle female which would be trained has a male and really wouldn't look any different, dont think people get that skaven females really look all that different from males till they are mutated, they are modeled after real life rats -boggles-

No gender is still primarily biological. Over 99.5% of the population is cis, and adhere to the gender role of their biological sex. The idea that gender is a social construct is absurd, and flies in the face of numerous levels of science as if we are the only species with gender roles. Pronouns are just words. I'll call you what you look like, and whatever gender roles you adhere to. If you look like a female, even if you have a ♥♥♥♥ (which I wouldn't know about without you telling me), I'll refer to you as a woman. If you look like a man and act like a man, but demand I call you a woman... Good luck with that. It's not happening.

I've dated a couple of transwomen, and so no... me understanding the nuances of Gender Dysphoria, and how biological males/females can develop a statistically rare hormone imbalance does not at all mean I agree with your blatantly moronic idea that gender in itself is a social construct. Infact you'd find most trans-people disagree with you. If gender was a social construct their body wouldn't be telling them at a biological level to behave/live as the opposite gender.

I remember a decade ago you all hated when the religious right argued that homosexuality and transgenderism was a choice that people could be convinced/converted away from, but now look at you... arguing that it's a choice. Ohhh what a wonderful timeline we live in.

Lizardmen are likely all biological male lizards, and you'll notice that they all adhere to typical male gender roles. Also the incredibly intelligent and ancient Slann almost certainly know the difference between he/him and she/her so the fact that they seemingly refer to all of their species inherently as he/him would suggest that they are males, but let's say they are biologically asexual they still preform almost entirely male gender roles. Also it's pretty safe to assume that the 1990s writers at GW intended them to be male as well as they wrote all of the lore and refered to them as he/him.

i feel like this is my fault... it has recently become clear to me that, somewhere along the line, i have become a wizard. between unintentially necroing this thread, nabbing a quint, a quad, a trip, and numerous dubs on a single for chan thread, and a few other improbable feats within 2 days, i seem to have developed some form a probability manipulation.

i never asked for any of this... my apologies to everyone who has been affected by my power.



in all seriousness though, i REALLY did have no intention of necroing this thread. like i said, it was 2 in the morning, i was only half awake and bored with nothing better to do. i'm sorry for having brought up something that some of you would have rather left alone.

yeah, female skaven are pretty much a big nope, there were never any on the tabletop, or in the lore anywhere. And for all the things it does slightly weird, Total War Warhammer respects the lore as far as legendary lords go.

Is it my turn to necro the next thread yet?

[Hexatorium]

I demand female skaven because the current roster is all dudes and that ♥♥♥♥♥ gay

[ChaosKhan]

It's hard to introduce females to a faction which, as far as the lore is concerned, has no female named characters at all. It would be fluffbraking to the extreme and make no sense at all.

I don't get it we already have Hell Pit Abominations.
