So I was reading the Dark Eldar codex, and it mentioned that Fabius Bile is currently trapped in the Tower of Flesh, being tortured. I was intrigued by this, and looked around for more information, and I couldn't find any. In fact, I found evidence to the contrary. Is this just a clone of Bile, or is he actually there being tortured?

The dark eldar is the newest piece of 40k fluff out there I dont think you'll be able to find an answer in older fluff. Maybe in the new chaos codex ?.

interesting I hadn't even heard of this, though I'd place my money on it being one of his many clones, seeing as he has no real need to leave his laboratories in the eye of terror.

"THE TOWER OF FLESH 796.M37: The Haemonculi stronghold known as the Tower of Flesh is created - a living, breathing fortress, made from the bodies of those who defied the Coven of the Thirteen Scars. The renegade Space Marine Fabius Bile is tutored in the dark arts within its blood-slicked halls." "Tutored", not "tortured." It means he was taught there in 796.M37, not that he's being tortured there.

Haven't seen the DE 'dex yet, actually. Only flipped through it briefly. It would make sense that at one point Bile was somehow invloved with DE stuff.

Blarg. Yeah, it is tutored, not tortured. I blame sleep deprivation.
