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.

This is kinda meta, you are debating whether something exist and is cannon inside a system which is generally talked about to not exist. #Therearenoskaven #FemaleSkavenGreySeer

well there are no female Grey seer's but i guess female could be the guard or just pawn for one

Breeding rights are valued higher than riches by skaven. Do you realy think someone will be allowed to have female skaven all to himself, moreover do you think the "owner" will allow that female to go anywhere outside of his den, or put herself into any danger?
Get real. I know it sounds funny, but but still. Skaven are impulsive, greedy instinct driven things.

Gifted by Horned Rat stand above rules

Tell that to clan Eshin who fully induct all horned grey furs into their hierarchy. And i am pretty sure the Horned Rat is not that good to gift a female with anything, because it is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

I never got the obsession with female heros some people have.

I think female skaven only ever get a pass if they're albino, grey, or horned... in which case they'll end up going to be one of the grey seers or their body guards. Black furred females -might- end up as storm vermin? But I doubt it? Most females end up being living, nonsapient, baby factories assuming they survive to the point where the other skaven pay attention to them at all (IE: they aren't eaten by their siblings, picked up by a random moulder to make into some monster, or just killed for fun).

But as everybody else here says, it would be such an incredibly rare thing as to not really end up in the game proper.

Because there's some really cool ones and we're still salty that Ariel is only ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ -referenced- for woodelves.

Some factions in WFB do have pretty neat female characters that would be good to have in the game. Plus, some people just like playing female characters.

I mean right now we have The Fae Enchanter (and we weren't sure we were going to get her), and Isabella (who isn't even an LL, but that's all for the good to my way of thinking, she didn't really fit the role).

Nobody is going to say that the company should just drop everything and include tons of female characters. But it's a little frustrating when they ignore really cool female characters and leaders for no good reason.

Ariel is the BIG example, but we got others. Wouldn't it have been ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ -awesome- to have the Blood Valkyrie instead of freaking Sigvald? I mean, come on. Sigvald? I don't think I ever even heard of him on the table top until this game.

For the Dark Elves we got Malekith's mom who is probably the instigator of everything wrong with the elves and is the super-caster to Malekith's frontline melee beastness.

For Tomb Kings we're -obviously- going to have Settra because why the ♥♥♥♥ would we not have Settra, but if they really go all the way to the eastern coast of the southlands then they REALLY need to include Khalida because if you don't intertwine the Tomb King's story with the Vampire Counts then you're just not doing it right.

Plus with how the industry is about these things, if people -don't- talk about it constantly, it's super easy for developers to just forget about including it at all. So yeah, it gets brought up a lot. When there's some level of parity then maybe it'll lay off at that point. Until then, there's gonna be 'muh equality' and rightfully so.

Especially when there's serious doubt over whether or not we'll be getting some of the coolest characters in the setting up and running as they should be.

Well. That will depend on the legendary lord packs. If Creative Assembly doesn't much of a damn about the lord packs, odds are you'll barely see any females of legendary status in the game. Honestly, they should make race focused lord packs that focuses on adding, if possible, all characters of legendary status to said race. And i wouldn't mind if they made their own legendary lords, bumped a few chracters to legendary status, or try tinkering with the lore to see if they could make a new legendary lord. Like a legendary female Skaven. Of course if it fits into the lore somehow. They may have to strech a few areas to make it possible, but as long as the lore backs up whatever story said legendary lord has, i wouldn't mind.

You would have been better off asking for Dwarf Female heroes. At least those actually exist in a form that can walk around, and do stuff. But yeah Skaven females are giant baby factories. And apparently considered valuable enough to fight over they wouldn't risk them in battle.

there are non-male skaven amongst the grey seers and their personal bodyguards and assassins, but they are incredibly rare.
