Harvest Lord
The Harvest Lord is the big G of the Hannibal Lecter cults. He's the biggest, meanest, and hungriest of them all, which naturally means he's in charge of the whole thing.
Overview[edit]
Due to their status, there is only one Harvest Lord per cult. They are usually the founding fathers of the deranged cannibals cults that hail from the Corpse Guilds. Due to their devotion to the Big K himself, the Harvest Lord has significant religious seniority, with his lessers bowing their heads to him in reverence. Although like most Khornate cults, the respect only continues so long as the Harvest Lord can keep his position from any would-be challengers.
As they are the highest-ranking cultists of the Corpse Grinders, the Harvest Lord carries the best weapons and gear available to the cult, all the better to serve himself up some nice human steak tartare. They typically arm themselves with all sorts of Chain Weapons, although large butcher's knives are also a favourite. In retrospect, the Harvest Lord is somewhat similar to House Goliath's Overtyrant, in the sense that not only are they the biggest and baddest of the bunch, but they also lack any rules on Necromunda, serving as mere political or religious figureheads....sort of. The Eightfold Harvest Lord is a Harvest Lord, but he acts more like a Bounty Hunter than anything else.
Now again, why in the proverbial fuck no Imperial authorities seem to bother with an ongoing Chaos Cult breeding on one of the most important Imperial Fists recruitment worlds, we have no idea. What, are the Corpse Grinder Cultists better bullshitters than fucking Genestealer Cults? Or is House Helmawr intentionally shielding all of their asses for reasons yet unknown?
Tl;dr, goddamned Khornate Sons of Malice.
