In the warhammer 40K universe, a Chaplain is a basically a space marine version of the Ecclesiastical priest, but with guns and power armor. A Chaplain's role in a chapter is to inspire the other marines by chanting a litany of verses and basically making the marines around him righteously angry. Unlike other Imperial officers, he isn't keen on executing his own men for simple cowardice, mainly because Space Marines RARELY retreat and the fact that a Marine is more expensive to create than an expendable guardsman but he does still torture/kill xenos, mutants and heretics for tactical/religious/personal purposes. Chaplains are an HQ unit and uses a Crozius Arcanum, their badge of office/fuckhueg mace capable of ignoring armor and utterly shattering your head right of your shoulders in a single swipe, while looking totally sweet in his black power armour and skull visage helmet to scare the living shit out of the enemy. Higher ranked chaplains may instead take artificer or terminator armor.
For all intents and purposes, just imagine a Space Marine, but even more fanatical and badass. He also has great oratorical skills to make his brothers stop biching and to pick up his knife then charge that Bloodthirster and stab him right in the balls because godsdamnit that's how you make the Emprah proud.
