In the fictional universes of Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy, Khorne is one of the four major Chaos gods. Khorne is the Chaos god of hate, war, rage, and killing; for this reason he bears sobriquets such as Blood God and Lord of Skulls. Khorne is a spartan god of war who acts outwardly by seeking the death of others, preferring close combat over ranged weaponry; as such, he is completely opposed to the hedonistic Slaanesh, an inwardly acting god who seeks pleasure in every act and experience. He has a strong distrust of wizards and sorcerers, whom he sees as cowards; this means he is also suspicious of Tzeentch, although they are not archenemies. In both game settings, these relationships affect the makeup of an army which is dedicated to Khorne. There is no particular antipathy, other than general rivalry, noted against the fourth god, Nurgle. He is described as an extremely well-muscled, beast-headed monster sitting on a throne atop a mountain of skulls in the middle of a sea of blood. The skulls are described as belonging to both his victims and his worshipers alike, as Khorne only desires death, regardless of who it is who dies. The colours associated with him are red, brass and black, and these colours feature prominently in his demonic hordes and are usually adopted by his followers. |
