The traditional
sacrifice of a peeled victim to the Lord Hobb has
its origins in that, at certain times, the most feared
of the Raith Sidhe would appear to his "children",
and walk amongst them stripped of all flesh.
Thus have
his high priests always arrayed themselves in costumes
which emulate the flayed state. A rat born at this
time may devote himself to the veneration and worship
of those filthy gods and aspire to attaining the powerful
position of high priest.
The other,
main purpose of the bloodybones costume is disguise,
for the identity of the high priest has ever been
cloaked in secrecy.
