'''Cherubael''' was once a Daemon Prince, worshipped as a god on the feral world of Clanar II. When Inquisitor [[Quixos]] freed the Clanars from Cherubael's domination, he managed to enslave the creature into the body of one of the warriors. One of Cherubaels cults sprung up on [[Cadia]] called "Sons of Bael" which was basically a front for the study of the [[Pylon]]s on the planet, which Quixos intended to reproduce in a perverted effort to fight [[Chaos]]. Cherubael served Quixos for many decades, until finally he was banished back to the warp by the intervention of other, more puritanical Inquisitors. Quixos himself being slain by Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn in combat.Encountered by Inquisitor Eisenhorn while assisting a radical inquisitor to secure the necroteuch. He engineered his freedom through the manipulation of events surrounding inquisitor [[Eisenhorn]] by making sure that Eisenhorn was in the right place at the right time, with the right weapon to banish Cherubael back to the warp, thus releasing him from the bonds Quixos had used to enslave him. However, Eisenhorn ensnared the daemon into a [[Daemonhost]] of his own. Cherubael being called upon by a desperate Eisenhorn to stop a rampaging Chaos titan, destroying it. The Daemon was then bound within the body a fellow inquisitor whom had been the only outsider to survive witnessing the battle. While Eisenhorn was reluctant to walk the path of the [[Inquisition|Radical]], he used a more controlled form of the daemon, bound by the arcane literature of the [[Malus Codicium]] to defeat [[Pontius Glaw]].
==Sons of Bael==
The Sons of Bael were a group operating on Cadia, whose sole interest was in measuring the [[Cadian Pylons]]. It was believed by [[Inquisitor]] [[Eisenhorn]] that they were subservient to Cherubael. This was never confirmed formally, due to their deaths at the hands of the [[Kasrkin]] bodyguard of Inquisitor General [[Neve]]
