Chosen of Erebus, Word Bearers Chaos Space Marines Oldhammer

The Chosen of Erebus in Warhammer 40,000 are a dark and sinister cabal of Word Bearers Chaos Space Marines, handpicked by Erebus himself, the arch-traitor and First Chaplain of the Word Bearers Legion. These warriors are among the most fanatical and loyal to the cause of Chaos Undivided, chosen for their devotion to the Dark Gods and their willingness to carry out the most heretical of tasks. Clad in ancient, corrupted power armor, they carry the weight of their legion’s betrayal during the Horus Heresy with pride, serving as Erebus’ personal agents of chaos and terror across the galaxy.

In battle, the Chosen of Erebus are often at the forefront of dark rituals, summoning daemons or spreading the taint of Chaos wherever they go. They are deeply entrenched in the arcane, utilizing warp-born powers and unholy relics to further their nefarious goals. As masters of manipulation and corruption, they work behind the scenes to unravel the fabric of the Imperium, sowing discord and preparing worlds for invasion by Chaos forces. Their allegiance to Erebus is absolute, making them some of the most feared and reviled figures in the galaxy, as they spread the foul doctrine of the Ruinous Powers with cold, methodical precision.
