Blade Venom

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
(Redirected from Grey Lattice)
Jump to: navigation, search

A lethal toxin distilled from the numerous mutant strains of fungus found at the bottom of the Hives on Necromunda such as Widowmaker, Scarlet Feng, Grey Lattice, or the much coveted Black Death which has developed a coating which will kill and creature that comes into contact with it. The Black Death will then grow off the bodies of its victims, drawing nutrients and hopefully attracting more victims in the form of carrion creatures coming to feed on the body.[1]

Used by Ratskins to kill large, dangerous beasts and mutants who will not succumb to lesser methods, and other Outlaws for an advantage in combat, the distilled venom is a viscous purple and is carefully coated onto blades. However, it is not unknown for particularly inept fighters to accidentally stab themselves or their comrades with these envenomed blades.[1]
