'''Xurunt Frost Fathers''' are [[Khorne]]-worshipping nomadic warriors from the planet [[Xurunt]]. ==Overview==Continually migrating across the planet's vast prairies, they seek only to enslave and conquer other tribes they conquer. It is a brutal existence, beginning when each is taught to ride a [[Xurunsh ]] from the earliest possible age. This planetwide struggle for dominance continues until winter, when the Xur focus instead on surviving the harsh conditions or ritually honouring their bloody god [[Baphtar ]] at one of his towering idols. Sometimes, a leader of truly remarkable prowess will arise and garner support amongst the tribes for a campaign during this normally peaceful time. These individuals are known as “Sacanta"Sacanta,” " or “Frost "Frost Fathers,” " among the Xur and are revered and respected leaders. They are driven anddangerous opponents, and many warlords seek to recruit such warriors with promises of skulls and glory.{{Fn|1}}
A Frost Father who leaves Xurunt quickly feels at home among the denizens of [[Chaos]], frequently settling in the [[Screaming Vortex]].{{Fn|1}}
