Blood Cults

Blood Cults, while warbands of Heretic Astartes and Traitoris Militarum practice their worship of the Lord of Skulls openly, mortal cultists gather in backrooms and secret slaughter tunnels beneath crowded streets, plotting murder and bloodshed in Khorne’s name. Given the terrible nature of many Imperial worlds, however, locals often barely notice the increases in violent crimes, missing persons, and gory dismemberments, allowing Blood Cults of Khorne to flourish below the rot of Imperial society. The members of these cults have many different reasons for joining together. Some have seen a friend die in a bar fight. Others have lost their families in Adeptus Arbites raids or riot suppression actions. There are even those who fight for sport because they enjoy the feeling of fists shattering jawbones.
