Only the most committed choose the face of Khaine over beauty. In an excruciating rite using boiling blood and spells of bonding, those who would join the sisterhood permanently graft the helms onto their heads, the metal leering ever more cruelly as it scents blood. Once, these were worn solely for the Khielt-gadh, a ritual combat that recreated the mythic battles of Khaine against the Chaos powers. Whether absorbed by revenge or overcome with the murderous spirit of Khaine, the warriors take the vow of druharú, and don masks of living metal. The Sisters of Slaughter are a sub-cult considered extremist even by other Khainites. They fight in an exaggerated style, spinning, leaping and posing dramatically as they use their whips and blades to trace ancient runes in enemy flesh. Their entire lives are dedicated to fighting – melee is worship, and each drop of blood spilt it is an offering to Khaine. To the Sisters of Slaughter, combat is everything. Sometimes even that is not enough to stop these vicious killers, for to them mutilation and bloodshed are acts of purest devotion to their cruel deity. Merciless masters of the lash, the Sisters of Slaughter leap into the fray and do not cease until all their foes lie dead.
