Kratsik was a Plague Priest of the Clans Pestilens and a leader of the Brotherhood of the Red Boil. He had his own Plague Furnace. [2a][2b]
History
Watched over by the Verminlord Corruptor Vermalanx, Kratsik show himself as a truly fanatical priest. He destroys many armies, engineers demise of countless Chaos champions and even outwits some skaven warlords. Thus he earns his place among the chosen minions of the Horned One that soon join the hunt for Alarielle during the Realmgate Wars. [2a]
Realmgate Wars
At some point Vermalanx bestows upon Kratsik an urn, said to contain the moaning ashes of a mighty Treelord trapped for unknown aeons. By order of the Verminlord Corruptor Kratsik leads his frenzied followers to the Glade of Horned Growths, to infest and fortify it. He burns granted ashes in a Plague Furnace and for many days brews rot-smog mixture. [2b]
During the Battle for the Glade of Horned Growths, which rages between Sylvaneth, Stormcast Eternals, Maggotkin and skaven, Kratsik murders the Treelord Lorhaldh, but dies himself under the feet of Lorhaldh's seed-sibling, Thellembhol. The Brothehood of the Red Boil is utterly destroyed by the Lady of Vines and her servants. [2b]
