The Plague Censer-Bearers are the suicidal fanatics of Clan Pestilen, warriors chosen from amongst the ranks of the Plague Monks for their unquestioning devotion to their faith and cause. To be chosen for such a duty is a grand honor, and one that is never refused, even though it will lead to the Monk’s own demise. To die in the service of the Horned Rat, swinging a smouldering plague censer with righteous zeal, is compensation enough for these maddened cultists. Unlike in other Clans where ferocious politics and killing earn special attention of any sort, among the Plague Monks, it is considered dedication. And those with the greatest dedication are allowed the “privilege” to wield plague censers.[2a]
