Kabal of the Broken Sigil
| |||
The Kabal of the Broken Sigil is one of the great Kabals found in the High Commorragh. They can date their origin back to the days of The Fall.[1a]
Overview
The Kabal takes its icon from the ancient Eldar glyph Drethuchii, loosely translated as the Shattering of Harmony. Like its namesake, the Kabal is infamous for its acts of discord. Whenever order and prosperity abound, the Broken Sigil will bring confusion and despair to even the most idyllic places in the galaxy.[6]
Terror tactics are much beloved by its Kabalites, so much so that Archon Xerathis is looked down upon his rivals for the "predictability" of his strategies.[4] They are known to engage in sky-writing, blanket-bombing with hallucinogenic gas and hijacking communications channels to ensure their victims are frightened half to death before their invasion even begins, the better to prepare a rich feast of fear from their victims.[8] They have also fostered many Mandrake pacts, which allows them to unleash hordes of the terrifying warriors into battle.[9]
The Kabal of the Broken Sigil is perhaps the most infamous among the Imperium, with entire conclaves of Ordo Xenos Inquisitors and Deathwatch Kill-Teams devoted to their demise. For his part, the Archon Lord Xerathis brags about what fine slaves Space Marines make.[6]
Their raiding territory is located within southern Ultima Segmentum, where they are currently battling Necrons.[5]
