The dark behind the eyes.

The current Dark Eldar book pays a very brief mention to the Kabal of the Thirteenth Whisper, but with almost no information.

They seem interesting but with so little to go on I'm struggling with how best to represent them. So far, I haven't seen any crests or symbols for them, nor any clues as to their usual colours.

Does anyone know anything more about this Kabal?

If you look them up on Lexicanum there is a very short description of them essentially having shrouded faces and having a lot of Mandrakes in the army. If you want to represent this I suggest the Dark Riders heads from the WHFB dark elves range.
Spoiler:


It looks to be a Kabal made up for the sake of the story and not very fleshed out, which in my experience is some of the most fun you can have with a project because you have a lot of creative freedom to do the color scheme/symbols you want.

Do you think those are better/more appropriate than the masked Wych/Reaver heads:

(I ask because I already have plenty of those. )

Okay, I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks for your help.
