{{SalamandersPortal}}The [[Promethean Cult ]] defines the [[Salamanders]], teaching them the virtues that make them warriors worthy of Vulkan’s [[Vulkan]]’s example, it's symbols - the hammer and anvil, the flame, and the scales and visages of the powerful lizards who stalk the ash-choked landscape of [[Nocturne]], are recurring features on the wargear, banners, heraldry and personal affectations of Salamanders Battle-Brothers, particularly the veteran Firedrakes[[Firedrake]]s, who commonly wear great mantles of drake-hide to signify their status in battle.
* '''The Flame''': Sometimes painted or carved onto armour, sometimes intricately plated with polished pseudo-gold, or carried as metallic emblems upon chains or cords, the flame signifies both creation and destruction, representing both the potency of the forge and the desolation of a raging inferno. Those who bear the flame are passionate and decisive, a tendency that is sometimes at odds with the considered and careful nature of the Salamanders.
