"She could never take an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. The weak and flaccid parity would make her nearly puke. She wants an eye for a tooth, and a life for an eye."

The Daughters of Khaine are a nation of elves who combine the Khainite religion with shadow magic. They are an army, with a few exceptions, of armed elven women and monstergirls in bikinis.
Origins
The faction was founded by Morathi. After she escaped from Slaanesh, Morathi wandered the realms, looking for elves. During this time she found the heart of Khaine, the god she had pretended to worship in the past. However it was guarded by Kharybtar, the father of Kharibdysses. Morathi tried to charm the sea monster, but he attacked while she tried to grab the heart. Eventually she poisoned Kharybtar and escaped with the heart.
After Tyrion, Teclis, Malerion and Morathi captured Slaanesh (Morathi was the bait), they sequestered the Chaos God between the realms of Hysh and Ulgu. As per their agreement, Morathi was given some of the elf souls drawn from Slaanesh. However Morathi was greedy, and took more than her allotted share.
Religion
Society
It's also quite misandric, as the cities and temples of the Daughters of Khaine are ruled by the female elves while the male elves are slaves. While the women outnumber the men, this is not the paradise some think it would be. Morathi deliberately made only a few male elves, and then only from the weakest and most broken of souls retrieved from Slaanesh ensuring they would be weak. Even male elves a Daughter of Khaine gives birth to are cursed with this same weakness as Morathi siphons part of their souls to power the Cauldrons of Blood. Some male elves take up shadow magic to make up for their weakened souls, becoming Doomfire Warlocks, but Morathi has them branded with mind-control runes (while deceiving them into thinking they're protection against Slaanesh). Though they worship a male deity, as stated before, his power is secretly being siphoned by Morathi for herself. So they're pretty much an ultimate feminist power fantasy.
