Books of Blood

The Books of Blood, forbidden grimoires of Khaine, describe the Vampires as godlike beings who stride the centuries, letting blood flow like rivers of wine. However, The Books of Blood are almost impossible for an honest scholar to obtain copies of, and the fragments of them that do exist are often copied from remnants of the victims of Khaine’s cultists. It is a common trial for initiates of the Murder Lord’s cult to kidnap innocents and cut a passage of the books into their victims’ flesh before letting them escape. The victims spend the rest of their lives with heresy scarred into their skin, an act which is said to greatly please the God of Murder.
