"While reports have them centered on or around Mars, the true might of the Cabal is still wrapped in speculation."

— Cabal description.^[1]

The Cabal are a race with a heavy-set, rhinoceros like appearance. They are one of many species with the intent to destroy humanity. They are in control of the Dust Palace (also known as the Exclusion Zone) on Mars. Members of the Cabal are known to carry slug throwers or rifle-like weaponry.^[2]

Biology

The Cabal are a bipedal, hulking, and vaguely humanoid species. According to concept art, the Cabal appear to be carnivorous as they have sharp, irregular teeth. They have wrinkled, gray, leathery skin, a tall skull, dark wide-set eyes, and a very high, inverted-V-shaped upper lip that exposes the Cabal's upper gums and fangs. ^[3]

The Hive appear to be able to hold a form of influence over members of the Cabal, as with the Fallen, through unknown means.^[4]
