The Skaven have become one of the most iconic and unique races in Games Workshop's fantasy range - making their mark as key players in the stories of the Warhammer world and surviving almost unchanged in to the Age of Sigmar that came after it. But who created the Skaven, and how have they developed over time?

This documentary traces the real world origins of the Skaven from the mind and hands of GW legend Jes Goodwin, and how they infested almost every game Games Workshop made thereafter!
