The Daemons of Khorne embody the oldest and simplest of appetites: the desire to destroy. Khorne cares nothing for the cause of a killing, only that blood is shed and skulls are claimed, and so his daemons are drawn to every battlefield across the galaxy like sharks to a wound. Chief among them stand the bloodletters, ranked swordsmen of the legions, supported by the baying packs of flesh hounds and the thunderous charge of blood-forged war engines. Above them tower the bloodthirsters, winged giants of pure martial fury.
What distinguishes Khorne's daemons from the other Powers is their grim discipline. Where lesser minds imagine wrath as chaos, the Blood God's legions advance with the terrible order of a headsman's stroke, each daemon marching to the beat of a rage older than time. They scorn ranged weapons and sorcerous arts as the tools of cowards, seeking always to close the distance and settle matters blade to blade. To die facing a worthy foe is the only honour they recognise, and to be dragged back into the warp is merely a pause before the next slaughter.
Chaos Daemons
Order of battle
The Daemons of Khorne field the units of the Chaos Daemons — a detachment from the roster:
Kindred formations
Other Chaos Daemons formations
Daemons of NurgleThe Daemons of Nurgle are the joyful children of decay, shambling hosts who spread pestilence with something close to affection. They embody the endurance of life through suffering, the resilience that outlasts despair, and the grim comfort of accepting the inevitable. Slow, patient, and all but impossible to destroy through attrition, they advance in cheerful multitudes, their bloated forms wreathed in flies, laughing as they gift the living with rot beyond counting.
Daemons of SlaaneshThe Daemons of Slaanesh are perfection turned to poison, exquisite and lethal servants of the Dark Prince of pleasure and excess. They embody obsession, sensation, and the pursuit of experience past every limit. Faster than mortal thought and beautiful in a way that wounds the mind, they dance through battle lines in a lethal ballet, drowning their victims in overwhelming sensation and claiming souls that have known both agony and rapture as one.
Daemons of TzeentchThe Daemons of Tzeentch are living sorcery, capricious horrors of flame and prophecy who serve the Architect of Fate. They embody ambition, change, and the endless scheming of a god who plots ten thousand moves ahead. Their formations shift and split unpredictably, wreathed in coruscating warp-fire, and they wield magic as easily as breathing. To face them is to be ensnared in a plan whose purpose was decided long before the first shot was fired.
