	A Chosen is a term coined up by [[Chaos Space Marines\|Chaos Space Marine]] Legions/Warbands that describes a particularly powerful member of a Legion/Warband and may have roots in a title attributed to Warmaster Horus Lupercal. A Chosen comes in many forms. They may be very experienced warriors that were chosen by their [[Chaos Lord\|Chaos Lords]] to lead squads of Chaos Marines into combat, some are literally Chosen by the Chaos Gods (or a single patron) and given "gifts", others may be powerful Champions that are lesser Chaos Lords serving a more powerful individual...or simply all of those things put together. Whenever the case, all Chosen are characterised by having unholy bling, millennia of hard won experience (stretching back from the days of the Horus Heresy to present days 40K), mutations that are actually useful (this is still up to debate in most situations due to the gods having [[Fun\|different moods]]) and sweet wargear.

Due to their varied backstories and access to a wide variety of equipment, Chosens are basically [[Your Dudes]] for Chaos players, more of which can be read below.

			===Overview===
	Chaos Chosen usually start as normal Chaos Marines that slowly and steadily advance the hierarchical ladder of their Warband. At first the Chosen either lead the less experienced Chaos Marines like their Loyalist kin do, band together under a more experienced Chosen, or even become at one point members of a Chaos Lord's (or any other distinguished Chaos Commander's) retinue, eventually becoming Chaos Lords themselves if they keep up with the villainous heroism/[[Just as Planned]] ploys and piousness/satisfying the [[Chaos Gods]]/patron god (even going so far as becoming [[Daemon Prince\|Daemon Princes]] or [[Chaos Spawn\|those-whose-names-we-will-not-utter]] if they screw it royally up). Hell, it's actually possible for any Chaos Marine (even a [[Possessed\|Possessed Marine]], a [[Obliterator]]/[[Mutilator]], a [[Chaos Dreadnought\|Hellbrute]], you name it) to become one as long as they become better at what they do and show more interest in other forms of warfare.

Among Chaos Marines, Terminator Armours are limited (unless they have ties with the [[Dark Mechanicus]], and even then these guys are no different from the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] in term of hoarding stuff, so they rarely give the [[Chaos Space Marines\|Spiky]] [[Ork\|Boyz]] any newly made bling unless they get something valuable, though the Chosen can just directly threaten them too), thus in order for a Chosen to obtain one, they need to take it away from another Chosen either via heavily ritualised combat ([[Khorne\|aka: the manly duel to the death]]), or less warrior-like means ([[Tzeentch\|good old backstabbing or "a series of unfortunate accidents"]]). Krumping a loyalist Terminator and managing to salvage his armor is also one of the available options open to them.

	Additionally, Chosen, as mentioned before, have either the favour of all the Chaos Gods, or a single Patron. Thus there are Chosen that are either Undivided, or serve a single Chaos God. Mixes of single god worshipers among Undivided Warbands are as common as those who worship Chaos as a pantheon, and each god gives unique Chaos Gifts to its Chosen. Additionally, Chosen also gain wargear that befits someone that either serves Chaos Undivided or a single patron god.
