Tyrant's Banner
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Tyrant's Banner is a Chaos Knight Banner that is emblazoned with dark runes of power, which carry a great weight amongst the worshipers of the Dark Gods. When the Banner is carried into a war zone, worlds in nearby sectors that have sworn fealty to the Chaos Knight's household will do anything to fulfil the tithes demanded of them. This leads to whole continents being stripped of resources and offered as tribute, while cities are slaughtered in bloody sacrifice. But the Banner's runes are not merely symbolic, however. In battle, the power of the Warp pulsates from the Tyrant's Banner, enrapturing the servants of darkness and binding them to the Chaos Knight's will.[1]
