Khorne, the Blood God, stands as one of the most primal and terrifying deities in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. He embodies war, violence, and rage, feeding on the bloodshed and carnage that span across the galaxy. Unlike the other Chaos Gods, Khorne despises sorcery and trickery, instead valuing direct combat and raw martial prowess. His followers, known as the Berzerkers and the servants of Chaos, fight with a singular mantra: “Blood for the Blood God, Skulls for the Skull Throne!” Each battle, every death in war, strengthens Khorne’s power, his realm in the Warp growing with every drop of blood spilled in his name.
Khorne’s influence is pervasive, touching everything from the savage warriors of the World Eaters Legion to the most brutal-minded Orks who unconsciously give him homage in their love for battle. His kingdom in the Warp is a vast, hellish plane filled with mountains of skulls and rivers of blood, a fitting tribute to his insatiable hunger for war. The followers of Khorne lose themselves to his violent ethos, forsaking mercy and honor in favor of absolute slaughter. In Khorne’s eyes, strength and victory on the battlefield are paramount, and all other considerations—such as morality or loyalty—are irrelevant. His presence in the galaxy represents the eternal and unrelenting tide of war, where peace is a mere illusion and bloodshed is the only true reality.
