This article is for the Eshin clans of the Mortal Realms. For the Great Clan from the World-That-Was see: Clan Eshin.

The Clans Eshin are mysterious and deadly, in a society in which treachery is an art form they are the masters of stealth, assassination and spying.[1]

Seemingly apolitical, the Clans Eshin are, from the outside anyway, stable and free from infighting. They offer all the other clans their expert skills of death dealing and espionage with agents and assassins that can-not be matched. [1]

History

At the end of the Age of Chaos, Clans Eshin agents in the Realm of Azyr discover Sigmar’s plans to return with a new army, their masters plot to make the best use of this information, which even the gods of Chaos are not privy to. [2d]

Many Skaven clans are devastated by the arrival of the Stormcast Eternals, but others are warned by Eshin agents. Those that are shattered by the onslaught provide plenty of new slaves and resources for the Clans Eshin. [2d]

Following his return to Azyrheim after driving the Skaven out of the Shasmodach jungles, they assassinate Sethril Brightblade, a heroic Drakelord of the Order Draconis, carving their rune into his chest. [2d]
