Basilisk Lord Chaplain: The Fan-Made Dark Shepherd of the Basilisk Chapter
Basilisk Lord Chaplain: The Dark Shepherd of the Basilisk Chapter
In this grim and magnificent artwork, the Basilisk Lord Chaplain stands draped in ominous robes and crowned with a spiked halo of flickering candles, casting a haunting glow over his skull-faced helmet. His armor is a fearsome patchwork of spiked plates, sacred seals, and relic chains that rattle with each step—a terrifying symbol of unwavering devotion and brutal discipline. Clutching a crozius arcanum like an executioner’s axe, he embodies the iron will that keeps the Basilisk Chapter united under the Emperor’s shadow. Fan lore paints this Chaplain as the spiritual hammer of the Chapter, known for purging heresy with sermons forged in fire and steel, delivering litanies of hate on battlefields soaked in blood. His presence alone steels the hearts of battle-brothers and strikes paralyzing dread into the souls of the unfaithful. Though not an official Warhammer character, the Basilisk Lord Chaplain perfectly channels everything we love about grimdark faith and pitiless retribution in the 41st Millennium.
