Sewn from strings of congealed gore, the Banner of Rage radiates bloodlust so strong that those beneath it are goaded into a state of permanent rage. There is a prophecy written in the Tome of Blood of a great champion who will carry the Banner of Rage across a river of blood and be granted the gift of Daemonhood. To date, no mortal has been rewarded so, for none have lived long enough. The promise of immortality draws Khorne's followers from across the world, each challenger believing that they alone are the one the prophecy speaks of, each ready to pluck the banner from the dead fingers of its current bearer.[1a]
