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]].{{Fn|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.{{Fn|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.{{Fn|8}} They have also fostered many [[Mandrake]] pacts, which allows them to unleash hordes of the terrifying warriors into battle.{{Fn|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]] [[Xerathis|Lord Xerathis]] brags about what fine slaves [[Space Marines]] make.{{Fn|6}}
