Fangs of D'rek

The Fangs of D'rek were priests and priestesses of the Temple of the Cult of D'rek in the Septarch District of Kartool CityDeadhouse Landing, Chapter 2, US TPB p.27 on Kartool Island. Robed in red, Fangs served as trial court custodians (i.e., a type of lethal bailiff), serving as guards, escorts, and sometimes even executioners of prisoners charged with serious crimes relating to the Cult of D'rek. Fangs would also usher witnesses - willing and unwilling - to and from the court. A Fang of D'rek "carried one small curved blade" which was covered in an extremely virulent scorpion venom. These envenomed blades were sheathed in wax to protect the carriers, but the venom was so toxic that Fangs often died from accidental poisonings - which made being a Fang of D'rek the "most deadly position" that a priest or priestess could hold in the Cult.Deadhouse Landing, Chapter 10, US TPB p.200-201
