Background:
The Drukhari are the corrupted legacy of a once-exalted people. After the collapse of their civilization, they fled into the secret tunnels of the Webway, where they built Commorragh, a city of black glass and patchwork latticework, suspended in endless shafts. In this Dark City, they feed on the agony of others, for every heartbeat of pain momentarily sates the hungry gaze of the deity their arrogance once bore.
Their social structure resembles a nightmare of intrigue. Archons rule Kabals like spiders over webs, Wych Cults transform suffering into bloody arena spectacles, and Haemonculi fashion hissing grotesques from captive souls. Overseeing all is Asdrubael Vect, a born slave who rose to the head of the Kabal of the Black Heart through cunning and murder. His word is law, for in Commorragh, power is measured solely by fear.
To sate their endless greed, the Drukhari tear open portals, plunge into the material realm, and drag all living things away in chains. Their raids last but moments, yet they leave behind disemboweled cities and the whisper that the shadow of the Dark City can reach anywhere. Every tear, every scream, and every heartbeat of mortal terror flows as a sweet essence to Commorragh, extending the lives of its rulers for another night.
Yet, beyond all this cruelty, a desperate hope burns within the Drukhari, that they will never be consumed by that greedy deity. This is why they fight, because they want to live, and they live by destroying without limit.
