About Daemons
Daemons are the manifestations of humanities negative emotions. Nurgle is the manifestation of death, destruction, pestilence but nonetheless also shows the positive emotion of love, equality and genuine care for his followers(In a very twisted way.).Khorne is the manifestation of lood, rage and war. Tzeentch is the manifestation of Power, deceit, ambition and hope. Slaanesh, on the other-hand, manifested from the Eldar's hedonism and debauchery.
They reside in a chaotic and hellish dimension known as the Warp (Also known as the Immaterium. The Warp is also home to the Chaos Gods' realm's where they constantly battle a never-ending war with each other for supremacy. Daemons cannot enter real space at will due to them being made of energy. Daemons can only enter real space if they are either summoned or can use real-space entrances that could allow them to remain in real space, such as warp rifts or possession of a host (usually psykers as they tap the warp to use their powers which reveals themselves to daemons and leave them vulnerable to it's influences, or powerful (and mostly unwilling) individuals that the daemon would have great use of, like Chaos Space Marines).
They generally cannot be killed but only banished back to the warp (Though, they sometimes can be banished for a long period of time like a millennium, which buys real space some relative peace until the daemon is free to wreak havoc again). Banishing daemons normally vary from their power, lesser daemons like Bloodletters can normally be banished back by either a few dozen shots from a lasgun or a simple chant of a certain scripture that daemons fear, while Greater Daemons like a Bloodthirster or Great Unclean One will normally either require extremely powerful dakka the size of Baneblades, or the intervention of the Daemonhunters or similar specialists.
It should be noted that despite the name "Daemon" is their widely accepted name by the mortal races, it is not necessarily their actual name. One Daemon even remarks that it is merely a name given to them due to its satanic origin. (even if it technically has a more neutral, Greek origin, but scratch that, current fluff writers aren't the authors of the RoC)
True Names
Daemons tend to hide their true names by giving themselves false ones. This is due to the fact that they can be banished if their true should ever be uttered. The downside about true names is that all true names are quite a mouthful. Daemons' true names are very hard to pronounce if you aren't well trained psyker like a Librarian or a full-fledged Inquisitor, and can actually make your throat sore. Their was even one instance that uttering their true names can actually make your mouth literally burn.
Chaos Gods
- Papa Nurgle, the benevolent father and the plague master. Fattest of all the Gods and also the first God to manifest but second to be actually born. He was most likely born during the times of the Black Plague.
- Slaanesh, the chronic masturbater, his/her mission is to get Tzeentch to become perverted, just to see what it would look like. He/She/it/Hermaphrodite is the youngest to be born (And therefore, the weakest amongst the Gods).
- Khorne, is incredibly large and angry all the time for absolutely no reason, other than the fact that he likes beating up the other Gods. Listens to Death Metal and tortures all of the other gods' daemons when they fail, as he is too stupid to tell them to do their own work. He is second to have manifested but the first one to be born, most likely during the congregation of bloodshed known as the Mongol Invasion.
- Tzeentch, the tricksy nerdy smart one, has no time for simple pleasures; once mindfucked himself from the past, present, future, current and the 9th dimension all at once. Invented the phrase, 'JUST AS PLANNED". Tzeentch is the third born.
This is, of course, not counting the independant Daemons like Furies(not to be confused with furries), who are less awesome.
