The '''Zombie Plague''' was is a deadly infection that was spawned by the [[Forces Chaos|forces of Chaos]].

==Overview==It was The Zombie Plague is a combination of a [[Chaos]] infection and a physical malaise that spread rapidly before [[Abaddon]]'s [[13th Black Crusade]] and was heralded by the [[Plague Fleets]] of the [[Chaos Champion]] [[Typhus]]. This led to the rise of numerous [[Plague Zombie]]s on [[Imperial]] worlds and also resulted in the formation of a new branch within the [[Inquisition]] known as the [[Ordo Sepulturum]]. The plague degenerated those it infected which can be done so through a number of ways including physically. A portion of the victim's life essence is retained by the body even after physical death has occurred.

There have been numerous noted similarities between the plague and the operation of the [[Golden Throne]]. Increased study of the plague by [[Thorian]] [[Inquisitors]] have led them to believe that it's its study can help them understand the [[Emperor of Mankind]]'s life after undeath. However, every attempt at creating a stable ''"faith virus"'' has led to mutation in the sample. The victims of the plague are noted to have a psychic connection and it's been noted that [[Psyker]]s have the capacity of manipulating the creatures spawned.

A common theory among the Thorian Inquisitor's Inquisitors is that the plague is an offshoot of the technology used to create the Golden Throne and may have been created by the [[Dark Mechanicus]] that reside within the [[Eye of Terror]].
