Skaramor
History
For thousands of years they have been devoted to claiming the skulls of mighty enemies and offering them to the blood god. They hunt warbands, champions, Daemons and monsters. [1b]
As soon as he was strong enough to lift an axe, Skarr Bloodwrath began killing enemies, but it was his brutal slaying the chieftain of the Skaramor that drew the attention of Khorne to him. As he stood over the corpse, Khorne branded him with his Rune across his heart. Since then he has led his tribe into battle but not against the southerners but rather seeking worthy opponents in the Chaos Wastes. [1a]
Skullreapers
The warrior-elite of the tribes, they are feared by their own people for their blood-lust. They care little for strategy or discipline and charge enemies in an avalanche of brazen blades and screaming rage. Some even wield ensorcelled blades forged atop the Tower of Screams. [1b]
Wrathmongers
Skullreapers whose absolute devotion to Khorne sets them apart from their comrades become lunatic murdersmiths who are both feared and revered by their kin. They are guided on their path by the tribes bloodspeakers and subjected to a punishing regime of worship, conditioning and pit fights until only the most determined and murderous remain. Then they embark on the Pilgrimage of Skulls to the Brazen Cage. [1c]
