Editing Sorcerer (Warhammer 40,000)

{{NeedsImages}}

Start with a [[Space Marine]] [[Librarian]], add some [[heresy]], and you get a '''[[Chaos]] Sorcerer'''.  They are the heavy-duty psykers of the [[Chaos Space Marines]].  They feel the [[Warp]] overtaking them, and to them, it is a good pain.

For the most part, Sorcerers see themselves as great discoverers of arcane knowledge, studying the Warp from a perspective that the foolish worshipers of the [[God-Emperor of Mankind|Corpse God]] deny themselves.  They often lead warbands of other Chaos Space Marines, either because they want to learn, too, or to do the fighting while the Sorcerer does the learning.

While they certainly can be scholars or warlords (or both), the dirty secret of the Sorcerers is that they are just as much pawns of the [[Chaos Gods]] as everyone else.  [[Magnus the Red]] (and all of the [[Thousand Sons]]) learned this the hard way during the [[Horus Heresy]], when the Rubric of [[Ahriman]] turned all non-[[psyker]] Thousand Sons into [[Rubric Marines]].

[[Khorne]] usually hates them (in fact, they cannot take the Mark of Khorne in-game), but he may make an exception for particularly bloodthirsty psykers, like [[Azariah Kyras]].
