Overview
The Kabalites of the Poisoned Tongue are sharp of wit, with a flair for duplicity so pronounced that they can tie their rivals in knots and dissect them with words alone. They have carved their own niche in Commorragh through misleading and wrong-footing rivals, and ensuring their "allies" bear the brunt of any actual fighting. None trust this infamously sly Kabal.[2]
The Poisoned Tongue is known for its use of infiltration tactics, assassinations, and mass poisonings that ravage an enemy before battle is ever joined. During their realspace raids, the Kabal put their skulls of deceit to good use. Inhabitants of the selected worlds are often supplied with false signs of an impending attack, as well as fragmented messages and fleeting signatures of Dark Eldar craft. They position their defenses as best they can to repel the impending invasion, but when the real strike comes it's where their victims least expect.[4]
The Kabal employs an unusual amount of Trueborn, and rumor has it Archon Malys has her own mysterious patron.[2]
