Dark Eldar Kabal Creation Tables
This article provides a number of fluffy options for you to consider if you create your own Dark Eldar Kabal. Options were sourced from /tg/. Currently we do not have any diceroll ranges, so these tables do not function as a random Kabal generator. Feel free to invent your own ranges.
Kabal Motivation
- VENGEANCE
- Sport
- Kabal splinter
- Fallen Craftworld Eldar
- Fallen Exodite Eldar
- Homunculus front
- Kabal front
- Remenant from Eldar Empire days (pleasure cult?)
- Defence of a district
- Pirates
- Backup dancers
- Some Spiritual shit
Kabal Age
- Before the Fall: extremely low probability. Kabal is either extremely powerful or a shadow of its former, extensive glory.
- 3-10 thousand years ago: very low probability. Vect's Kabal arose around this time. Kabal is either extremely powerful or a shadow of its former glory.
- 1-2 thousand years ago: low probability. Most that are still around are powerful in their own extremely localized fiefdoms. Not a lot that are shadows of their former glory; Vect didn't leave much behind when he wiped somebody out.
- 250-1000 years ago: Middle-aged as Kabals go; can range widely in power.
- Extremely Recently: Not very powerful; most populous option.
Kabal Progenitor
Roll 1dX(-1) and disregard first option unless you rolled a one or two on previous table.
- Member of pre-Fall nobility
- Usurping Dracon or Sybarite
- Hellion who gave up gang life for power
- A ruthless badass who came out on top after the violent anarchic days before the Kabal fully formed
- A Dark Muse
- Fallen Craftworlder
- Fallen Exodite
- Pirate/Corsair
Kabal Demeanour
- Swift As The Wind - Faster raiders even than other DE. They'll have the skin off your body faster than you can scream in torturous agony.
- Cleanse and Purify - Thorough looters and pillagers. Nothing is left untouched.
- Purity Above All - A particular hatred of psykers, for the attention from She Who Thirsts that they bring.
- See, But Don't Be Seen - Sneaky and undetectable right until the point where they leap out and feed you your own testicles to laugh at your gurgling.
- Suffer Not The Alien To Live - Particular hatred/interest for alien species. Might capture them for a zoo, or just slaughter them because they're not Dark Eldar.
- Suffer Not The Works Of Heretics - Particular hatred for their super-pure and uptight siblings.
Kabal Flaw
- We Stand Alone - The Kabal maintains distant relations with everyone, seeing imminent betrayal everywhere.
- Pride In The Colours - The Kabal insists on wearing gaudy and ostentatious ornamentation declaring their might and wealth.
- Eye-To-Eye - The Kabal finds pleasure only in the slaughter of hand-to-hand combat.
- Kabal Kult - The Kabal practices exotic and extreme rituals, even for the Dark Eldar.
