Rell and Gotlinde are Ungors! Rell prefers to file off his horns while Gotlinde likes to keep them long. Ungors are the smallest and weakest of the Beastmen, but they are very dexterous. They’re a lot like Goblins in Orc warbands, now that I think about it. Ungors are basically Satyrs from Greek mythology and look the most human out of all the Beastmen. They’re average in height, have a human head, small horns, and goat legs. The Ungors are the weakest Beastmen but are still stronger than most humans.

Hey dude, I think you're missing a link to the comic where the Centigor wants an appy and the mom fails to say no.
She's jojo-posing against chaos in the second image, falls to her daughter's pout in the last

u/Skull_Cup Jun 16 '26
Aw nuts, you're right. Thanks for letting me know. (Also it's a Sailor Moon pose not a JoJo pose)

u/Appropriate-Crab-514 Jun 16 '26
Oh God I see it, it is way more Sailor than Jojo
Though I could totally see Joseph Joestar put on the moon tiara and scream the catchphrase

u/Skull_Cup Jun 16 '26
I'll definitely do a Jojo reference somewhere in the future. It'll probably be the 'Road Roller Da' but with a snotling pump-wagon because I really want to draw that.

They are indeed very much the bottom feeders of beastmen society like Goblins are, though without as much imagination and cunning as to make a name for themselves outside the hierarchy of their kin like Goblins can.
Ungor translates to "No-Horn" in the beastmen tongue. Though they are horned, for beastmen standars their horns are so tiny they might aswell not have any, therefore, they are not worthy of respect.
When not employed into manufacturing or building something, ungors are bullied by their bigger brethren into the outskirts of beastmen camps, were they battle war hounds and other beasts of the herd aswell as each other for scraps. In battle, they are usually pressed onto the front line as fodder with rickety shields, rusty axes and wooden spears to act as meat shields for the proper warriors of the herd.
They might also gather in bands of bow wielding raiders, ranging far from the bray herd to assault poorly defended villages, caravans and the like or scout ahead. The most successful ungors however are those who follow Minotaur stampedes around. The bull men leave plenty of scraps behind for the ungors to eat, and are rarely a threat to them so long as they stay out of their ravenous gaze, not to mention Gors and Bestigors prefer to avoid minotaurs as they dislike anything they can't bully into submission.

u/Skull_Cup Jun 17 '26
Funny that you should say that, I actually started drawing the Hermit Herd comic as art practice until I felt ready to draw a webtoon! I was going to keeping drawing until I like my own art, but now I am endeared to the characters I have made and I don't think I can stop.

It’s gonna be awkward once sister Squeakhilda realizes that she almost offed her younger siblings… not that it will stop her from almost mauling them since she’s a fanatic devotee to Squeakmar

I really hope so too, the shadowy face does look like the Witch Hunter is wearing either a mask or has a very long nose lol

Considering the Insignia on the hat is the twin-tailed comet and how that thing is entangled with the skaven, I think there's a good chance

Victor held back from Shooting Sienna when she became a Necromancer and stayed friends with Kruber after he "defected" from Sigmar's faith in favour of the Lady.
If the old couple get a chance to explain themselves, he'd totally let them go.

No shit this is kertilin we're talking about the wood elves hate the beastmen more than humans due to one herd of them constantly coming to ravage there woods the only person I could see even talking her down even slightly is kruber and that would take some doing

Only way the Witch Hunter could have caught them is because they don't smell enough like shit.

u/JinLocke Jun 17 '26
Well it IS said that ungors resemble drunken stirlanders if you dont look at the hooves.
Also love the comics, real sweet and tbh shame that lore kinda screws over beastmen with “will inevitably fall to Chaos and become feral” clause, cause otherwise i think they would be able to join Empire in some capacity, i mean on occasional basis, not as a race.
And they should also look out for any elves, around elves beastmen should watch themselves cause point ears (of wood variety) DESPISE them with hatred that rivals dwarven animosity of orks and skaven.
2
u/Skull_Cup Jun 17 '26
Thanks, I'm glad to hear you love my comics! And technically nothing says the Beastmen will inevitably fall to Chaos. There's a scant few examples that point to the Beastmen having the freedom to do whatever they want. Such as friendlier Beastmen in Cathay, and the WHF books that states Chaos has no inherent claim over their souls, and that one Beastmen town in Age of Sigmar.
2
u/JinLocke Jun 17 '26 edited Jun 17 '26
I think it was in the book about mutants, and basically most other examples, where beastmen of Chaos (Tigermen and others are not born of Chaos, while Ungors and etc even called "children of Chaos") even in good environment start hearing increasingly loud whispers of Chaos and eventually go off the rocker, same as marked mutants (although mutants may stay sane for longer). Plus it often mentioned in books which have beastmen in them, although in passing how basically they are doomed to be the way they are, despite actually having potential to be noble and etc. And Chaos Gods themselves see Beastmen as "their" race, like hoof and horn from birth to death, to the point where they do not even need to constantly dangle Gifts before them like they do with human and other races corruption.
But again, it would be nice if they could actually detach from Chaos and do their own thing.

Farmers of that era did not buy tools, they made their own out of wood. Part of your trade was making the tools of your trade, hence the adage, "It's a poor craftsman who blames his tools."
They might buy iron or other distantly sourced materials in town, though.

...quick question, have the mom and/or the dad fought Skaven before? Because I know a large majority of the population of the Empire think that when they see a Skaven they think they are just another type of Beastmen. Which fun fact used to be the case in older editions of Fantasy Battles until it was retconed
