Mr Cule has IMO the answer to this argument. Brutal Uroxi are behaving
in accordance with the desires of their god. As such they gain the benefit
of some of his attention. If they were to offend their god sufficiently they
could then be claimed by chaos. My feeling is that becoming Gargathi is an
ever present threat for Uroxi, as premier Chaos foes they are frequently
listed as prized converts or victims. Torture is not a religious crime, rape
,however, is a reinactment of an esential part of the creation of the devil.
IMO
this is likely to attract a greater degree of divine attention from both the
rapist's
god/s from Thed for whom rape is an act of worship. (I think I can recall a
reference but again can't find it. Am I hallucinating?)
