→Overview
Arrogant and heartless, the Escher have a reputation for cruelty, and are perhaps the most vicious House. Their gangs may be all female, but they are as tough and heavily armed as any all male gang. They are fast and deadly, and tend to have a strong bias towards hand-to-hand combat. When choosing guns they prefer [[plasma weapon]]s for their high firepower.{{Fn|5a}}{{Fn|5b}}{{Fn|6}} The Eschers' gang-dialect is known as ''Argot''.{{Fn|23}}
House Escher's wealth depends upon the [[Stimmstimm]] trade, in particular the supplying of their Stimms to [[House Goliath]] and medical elixirs to [[House Van Saar]]. 90% of all stimms produced on Necromunda come from House Escher's [[Chymist]] clans.{{Fn|12a}} Its products manufactured to the high standards of the House's [[Alchemyst Coven]]s under sanction by the [[Imperial House]]s.{{Fn|40a}}
Like all the other Clan Houses, Escher maintain their own workshops which, under the watchful eyes of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]], churn out weapons of numerous classes - those favoured by the House's warriors appear lethal and artfully refined, just like their owners. {{Fn|16m}}
