Tizcan Host
|
The Tizcan Host are a warband of the Thousand Sons.[1]
Overview
The Tizcan Host is known for its shared delusion. Every one of its Sorcerers believes he passed from mortality entirely at the time of the Rubric, and that he has been reborn as an avenging angel. To this end the Tizcan host wears white, a colour often associated with purity and soundness of spirit. These are claims that grow more dubious with every passing year, for that sacred white has been stained red with blood countless times over the millennia. The host still believes it has but one duty – to rain the righteous fire of the Crimson King Magnus upon the Imperium that once dared cast him out. Though they pretend to a superior, otherworldly goodness, the Tizcan Host is perhaps the most warlike thrallband of all.[1]
Other Details
The icon of the Tizcan Host is the Horned Crown – made in remembrance to the circlet worn by the deity of ancient Prosperine, the King of All Angels. The Rubricae of the Tizcan Host are known as the Seraphya. The icons of their masters-sorcerers are scorched into their tabards and armour before each battle and their silence and stilness now perceived by their masters as stoicism and loyalty, though the truth is far more sad. The Tzaangors that followed Tizcan Host in battles are known as the Choir of Eagles (this term dates back to the Great Crusade) and their harsh squawks and cries now sounds as a grotesque mockery of the songstrels of human auxiliaries of those times.[1]
