==Summary==
The Stormvermin are the dark brown or black-furred elite of Skaven military might. During the earlier days of the Skavendom, they were referred to as Stormwalkers. The Queekish term for "Stormvermin" is Heechigar
Stormvermin are, to an individual, larger than the average Skaven, well-muscled, and proficient in the use of various weapons and armour. They are aggressive by nature and are given to overt displays of prowess in order to intimidate those around them. Like the Grey Seers, their future is determined at the time of their birth, for only a Skaven with black fur are elevated to the ranks of the Stormvermin. As such, there is a certain air of ego shared together by all Stormvermin that is lacking in other Skaven groups.
The Albino Stormvermin are one of the greatest and most disciplined military forces within the Under-Empire, taken from birth due to their albino colouration and trained by the Council of Thirteen to be near-incorruptible and loyal bodyguards. They are some of the best warriors the Council of Thirteen has to offer, and serve as a symbol of power and prestige to those that have them as their bodyguards, for it means that the Skaven holds the favour of the council.
Each Albino Stormvermin is as large as any Skaven Warlord, but possesses a near-alien level of obedience and loyalty to those they protect. One of their most notable characteristics is Albino Stormvermin are all mute, perhaps as a way to ensure that should one of their numbers defect, they will not be able to compromise the secrets of the Council of Thirteen.

Attack Potency: Small Building level up to Large Building level (The Strength of a Stormvermin can vary depending on their Clan and ranking in the Heirarchy. Weaker Stormvermin would be comparable to this feat with stronger Stormvermin like the Albino breed scale to feats like this)
Speed: At least Superhuman (Faster then Skavenslaves that can move twice as fast as a sprinting human), up to Supersonic (Are comparable to Vampires who can outrun musket fireNight's Dark Masters, the Vampire Supplement for Warhammer Fantasy RPG 2e) 
Lifting Strength: At least Class 5 (Should be stronger than zombies who can rise from their graves), possibly Class 50 (Possibly comparable to vampires who can push boulders of this size)
Striking Strength: Small Building level up to Large Building level
Durability: Small Building level up to Large Building level (Are constantly fighting amongst themselves to ascend the heirarchy)
Stamina: Average. Skaven possess incredible metabolisms which leads them to need to feed many times their body weight to function properly. Infinite with Warpgrinder, Warpstone technology lasts indefinitely off even a tiny piece of Warpstone.
Range: Standard melee range
Standard Equipment: Depends on the Stormvermin, many prefer long Polearms while others dual wield blades, many use shields. Some can wield the infamous Warp Grinder
Intelligence: Animalistic; A Skaven that hasn't fed will descend into 'The Black Hunger' and mindlessly throw themselves at their opponent in a need to feed. Above Average in combat. Stormvermin are incredibly skilled Warriors that will fight amongst themselves to battle over the heirarchy of who is the best warriors, with only the biggest and most skilled Stormvermin remaining.
Weaknesses: Lacking ranged attacks. Warpstone technology is incredibly volatile and prone to malfunction and explosions. They must eat several times their body weight each day and if they don't they will descend into 'the Black Hunger' where a Skaven will mindlessly throw themselves as their opponent in a desperate need to feed, forgoing all sense of self preservation.
