{{ChaosPortal}}[[Image:Cherubael.jpg|thumb|right|A [[Cherubael]], a bound daemonhost.]]A '''Daemonhost''' is a living mortal body used as a receptacle to bind a [[daemon]], differing from a [[Possession|possessee ]] in that the daemon does not possess or control the mortal, but is bound into it. The Daemonhost is used by another mortal, often in order to use Chaos to fight Chaos.
Being an entity of the warp, a daemon cannot manifest itself in real space under normal circumstances. A daemon may instead enter the mind of a vulnerable [[psyker]] and turn the individual to its will and, through its host, affect reality. Outside of natural circumstances, and outside the [[Eye of Terror]], daemons can exist temporarily in real space by being summoned through complex rituals.
