The Screaming Bell is an unholy altar under the protection of the Horned Rat himself. From atop one of these massive structures a Grey Seer will preach to the chittering hordes of Skaven. As varied as the legends describing the creation of the Skaven race may be, the Screaming Bell is an ever-present factor. The sound of its tolling reach deep inside the evil hearts of the rat-men, inspiring awe and devotion. In battle the ominous sound of the Bell can be heard above the clamour of the fighting. It is a message of death for the rat-men's enemies, and a message of victory for the Skaven.

A Screaming Bell is usually pushed into battle by a chittering, frothing mass of Clanrats. In the case of Grey Seers who are particularly favoured by the Council of Thirteen, the Bell is pushed by an elite unit of black-furred Stormvermin. As well as moving the Bell across the battlefield as directed by the Grey Seer, the pushers of the bell are also its devoted protectors. They will defend the Screaming Bell, as well as the Grey Seer that rides upon it, to their deaths.

A Screaming Bell ridden by a Grey Seer may be added to your Skaven army as a Lord choice.
