Editing Haemonculus (section)

===The Covens===
Like all mad scientists, the Haemonculi like to gather together, sip tea, and discuss their latest discoveries over the flayed body of some unfortunate victim. They call these little fraternities covens, and [[Games Workshop]] was actually kind enough to detail them and all their sick, twisted glory. 
*The Black Descent: The Cube meets Saw. These guys put Jigsaw to shame. They take special delight in crafting ironic punishments for those that offend them. They created their own murder labyrinth below Commorragh and filled it with all sorts of nasty traps. Anyone lucky enough to escape the maze alive has the "honor" of being turned into a wrack and joining the coven. Have an elaborate caste system where the higher your rank, the more you learn about secret paths through the maze. Did I mention you have to navigate the labyrinth in pitch darkness?
*The Dark Creed: Not quite Night Lords, but close enough to compare notes. Like the Midnight Clad, they love to terrorize their victims before they kill. Unlike the Night Lords, The Dark Creed don't like to get their hands dirty. Instead, they try and drive their victims insane with fear, usually by relying on long range weapons or hordes of allied Mandrakes creeping out of the shadows when you least expect it.
*The Hex: Taking the arcane science/horror and turning it up to eleven is The Hex's favored tactic. They claim to be the brains behind some of the more crazy Dark Eldar weapons, including a [[Hexrifle|Sniper Rifle that turns people to glass]] and a [[Ossefactor|gun that causes a victim's skeleton to explosively grow until it impales the people standing nearby.]]
*The Coven of Twelve: They like their Wracks skinless, their toys shiny, and their deaths...interesting? The Coven of Twelve resemble a gentleman's club of demented, immortal psycho/sociopaths. They gather in what passes for smoking jackets, drink expensive wine from the skulls of their still-living enemies, and share stories of how awesome they are. Despite the name, there are only eleven members (they keep a seat open for [[Urien Rakarth]] in case he ever decides to come sit at the cool kids table) and getting a spot is really hard. Most of the members have died and been brought back so many times that you have to get really creative when trying to permanently off one. (For instance, turning your target into a living soup and then drinking him). Were possibly the coven responsible for turning some Custodes into a grotesque and terrifying parody of The Golden Throne.
*The Everspiral: Stupid Evil. I wish I was making this up, but apparently the Everspiral's whole identity is that they have decided they are going to do every vile, despicable, horrific, malignant, nasty thing possible. Why? Because they think they are evil gods and intend to "do everything in their power to ensure each day is a little viler than the last." That is an actual quote from the Haemonculus Coven supplement.
*The Ebon Sting: They make the best Talos. Also, they have a signature poison that causes their victims to turn into an incubator for worms, from which said poison is extracted.
*The Altered: Does this spine make me look fat? The Altered never wear the same anatomy twice and are constantly reworking their physiology. However, their real love is poisons. As in, kidnap and distill the population of an entire planet to synthesize a single drop of the perfect toxin.
*The Prophets of Flesh: Urien Rakarth's personal coven. The Wracks start out by having their arms and legs altered and branded. Should they prove to be especially sadistic, the Wrack will have the arm or leg cut off and a new, unblemished one is taken from the flesh libraries and grafted on. Yes, a flesh ''library.'' 
*The Thirteen Scars: The sick fucks who trained [[Fabius Bile]] in the art of being a sicker fuck. Considering FABIUS BILE learned from them, we can only guess at what sort of horror goes on in their ranks. Their infamous Headquarters is the Tower of Flesh, which in addition to being exactly as the name describes is also mobile and powerful enough to fight Chaos Titans.

And that's pretty much it. Hope the nightmares you have tonight aren't too bad.
