Mantle of the Elder Drake
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Mantles of the Elder Drakes are a badge of office within the Salamanders.[1]
The hunting and skinning of a drake was considered an important test for those who would claim the position of war leader on Nocturne. This ritual persisted amongst the Salamanders, and many of their leaders sport a cloak of tanned drake-hide.[1]
