Cult of the Yellow Fang

The Cult of the Yellow Fang is a forbidden Cult in the Empire that worship the Horned Rat. ^[1a]

Some humans believe that the Empire and perhaps the world is doomed and have decided that to survive and even prosper, they need to throw in with the winners. ^[1a]

The priesthood is reserved for true Skaven. ^[1a]

Strictures

These must be followed to the letter, on pain of torture and/or death. ^[1a]

• Never reveal the Cult to an outsider. ^[1a]
• Always strive to tear down the works of the Empire. ^[1a]
• Plant the seeds of doubt, fear. ^[1a]
• Sacrifice a Dwarf, Elf or Halfling or human once a quarter when the Chaos Moon is in its first quarter. ^[1a]

Symbol

They cult use both a stylised Skaven triangle, one of the lower points yellow and longer and a curved dagger. Some cult members knock out one of their incisors and stain it yellow, hanging it around their neck, others have a small yellow fang tatooed under their upper arm. ^[1a]

Writings

One of the cult wrote Rattus Rex Conspiratus describing interviews between the author and Skittertongue, a Skaven apparently opposed to the Council of Thirteen. ^[2a]
