The Kabal of the Bleeding Heart is one of many Dark Eldar Kabals that inhabit the dark and twisted streets of the Dark City of Commorragh. For nearly five millennia, the Kabal of the Bleeding Heart has terrorized the denizens of the Materium, with Humans seemingly being a particular favorite of theirs. Their goal, if one could even be identified, is seemingly to achieve massive territorial expansion and hedonistic pleasure and a grand scale. Since the early days of the 40th Millennium, the Kabal of the Bleeding Heart seems to be honing in on the Celtic Sector which now appears to be the target of most of the Kabal's raids
The Kabal of the Broken Glass is a Drukhari Kabal that have long been enemies of the Athirlyn since the Fall of the Eldar. Archon Kaedros is in charge of the Kabal and is the youngest sibling of an Athirlyn Farseer that has risen to command the Craftworld, Elowel Fithann. The Kabal targets them and their allies when possible and the craftworlders often attack their raids when they find out their targets and also assault them within the webway itself when they can.
The Kabal of the Crystal Daggers are a Kabal of the vile and murderous xenos race, the Drukhari. Although a minor Kabal, the Crystal Daggers formed from remains of the old Commorite nobility . Although having always carved a small place with a minimal influence on the intrigues of the Dark City, the upheavals of the last millennia shoots more and more towards difficulties to maintain themselves, pushing them inexorably towards their ends. They go raiding in the realspace with impeccable planning and perfectly synchronized assaults. The Archons bringing back slaves and booties with their Kabalites warriors adorned with showy armor and outfits, and endowed with quality weapons pay for a golden price at the Obsidian Rose
The Kabal of the Dark Star is a Kabal of the vile and hedonistic Drukhari. This major Kabal has a massive influence within the Drukhari society, mostly for its contradiction to Commorragh. Unlike the rest of their kin, they do have some puritanical light left within them, ones that they boast about. Known for their great weapons, sleek war machines, and flawless armor, their gear rivals that of even the Kabal of the Obsidian Rose. They are also held in awe by their kin for their mastery of the blitz, able to move with a swiftness astounding even for a Drukhari Kabal. Rather, they live within their own city, Zav'gor, one that is nearly as large as the Dark City itself and just as prominent. Those who wish to remain free from the oppressing chains of the Supreme Overlord will often flee to this city, known as the City of Tainted Light, pledging their allegiance to these Drukhari. And the enemies of Vect are so many, and the power of Zav'gor now so much, that this has led to the city's expansion to become a superpower capable of withstanding the might of Commorragh.
Merciless tyrants of the Old City, the Kabal of Endless Desecration are known to be heavily involved in the gun running business. Operating under extortion and protection pacts with factories in their domain, the Kabal produces weapons of extremely high quality before smuggling them to Hellion and Reaver gangs inhabiting the districts of enemy Kabals, leading to violent instability in these regions to weaken their rivals. This business also extends outside of Commorite slums, with Corsairs, Human rebels and even Orks utilising weapons created by the Drukhari. Besides gun running, the Kabal of Endless Desecration is heavily involved in drug production and trafficking, usually capturing Exodites or other interesting creatures to sate the endless curiosity of Haemonculi Covens or more rarely sneaking psykers into the Dark City
The Kabal of the Perfection's Agony is a recently founded, relatively small but deadly Kabal. It spawned from a small pirate fleet of the same name, led by the Impure, which managed to bring enough captives to Commorragh for Saerendril to bring around him pirates, Hellions and mercenaries searching for glory and power. Particular prone to help Imperial forces only to turn on them as soon as their common foe had been defeated, those Drukhari are considered particularly vile by most Imperial officers who know of their existence.
The Kabal of the Screaming Heart is a young and lesser-known Kabal on a meteoric rise to power in the latter half of M41. Founded in late M40 by the Archon Jizai Hellsun as he broke away from the massive Kabal of the Obsidian Rose, it has somehow acquired a large fleet within a short period of time and has begun tormenting both Imperial sub-sectors and Tau Septs with alarming frequency.
The Kabal of the Screaming Skull is one of the many Kabals that call the Dark City home. Young and ambitious the Kabal specialises in terror tactics and lightning raids, sowing fear throughout their targets before striking with a speed that puts others to shame. The Kabal is dominated by female members. Recently, they have entered into a mutually beneficial alliance with the vicious Cult of the Flayed and their are rumours that the cults succubus and the Archon of the Kabal are sisters but no one has had the courage to ask
The Kabal of the Shattered Will is a large yet reclusive Kabal in the Dark City of Commorragh. Its claim to power rests mostly in its extensive use of arms manufacturing, so much so as to be the source of a sizable portion of the Dark City's supply of Splinter and Darklight weaponry.
The Kabal of the Shining Star is one of the oldest Drukhari kabals ever created, created during the time of Vect's rise. This Kabal is what remains of Commoragh's ancient nobility. This Kabal is known to be extremely efficient at bringing back slaves and treasures after a raid.
The Kabal of the Twisting Bone is one of the few Dark Eldar Kabals that can inhabit the strange and twisted worlds just beyond the Realm Ikrell. This particular Kabal was fashioned from the remnants of an alliance between two of Commorragh's old Noble Houses that were exiled from the city by Asdrubael Vect and later forced to the edge of the Galaxy by the Rampart Boars Chapter. The alliance is held together by an outsider turned mighty Archon, Jhazran Medograi.
The Kabal of the Viper's Bloom is a Drukhari Kabal primarily based out of High Commorragh. They were founded in the aftermath of a coup led against the Archon of the Kabal of the Keening Dawn.
Their Archon, Nasadra Sin'felle is a former Lhamaean and is the one who instigated the coup.
They have since come to specialise in the production and distribution of bespoke toxins to those who can afford their prices.
The Kabal of the Wicked Moon is a semi-large Kabal. It was formed when its leader, Jarek Shadowhand, killed his former Archon and the Archon of a rival Kabal. He then merged the two Kabal together to form the Wicked Moon.
