==History==
Since their former leader [[Leeara Nines]] was killed by a rival [[House Goliath|Goliath]] named [[Skullshank]], the Carrion Queens have become one of the most savage gangs of [[Necromunda]]. Under the leadership of [[Jelena]], Leeara’s second, they have paved a bloody path from the swing bridges of Two-tunnels all the way up to Dust Falls. They are currently fighting a protracted war against the Ironlords over control of the [[Ironhard]] in the Abyss below [[Dust Falls]], with the backing of the [[Mercator Gelt]]. [[Mistress of Coin]] [[Melerva]] takes exception to the Goliaths owning such a big piece of the underhive and has been taking steps to stop them fully integrating the Ironhard into production. [[Jelena]] has been more than happy to help Melerva in her private war against the Goliaths, throwing herself and her gang into taking down the Goliaths. Such is Jelena’s dedication, the [[Chymist Cult]]s have taken an interest in her of late.{{Fn|1}}
