'''Daemon Princes''' are former mortal [[Champion of Chaos|Champions of Chaos]] who have been elevated to [[daemon]]hood by the [[Gods of Chaos]]. They have bartered their [[human]]ity for unearthly power and immortality.{{Fn|4}}{{Fn|5c}}

==Overview==

In order to attract the attention of their patrons, [[Chaos]] Champions have to perform great and terrible deeds. They sacrifice enemies and allies alike for their ambitions and risk their demise at the hands of both their foes and gods. The few that manage to avoid death and [[Chaos Spawn|spawndom]] are changed beyond recognition.{{Fn|4}}{{Fn|5c}}

Daemon Princes rule supreme over mortal Chaos followers and are usually granted reign over a [[Daemon World]] of their own.{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3}} Despite this, it is not uncommon for them to leave the material plane completely and join a [[daemon|daemonic legion]] in order to serve as right hand of a mighty [[Daemon#Greater_Daemon|Greater Daemon]]. For all their rank and power however, real Daemons commonly regard them as inferior due to their human origin.{{Fn|5a}}{{Fn|6}}

===Daemon Primarchs===

The most infamous of the Daemon Princes come from the traitor [[Primarch]]s that turned against the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]] during the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|7}} These powerful beings are still revered by the very [[Space Marine Legion|Legions]] they corrupted millennia ago, even though it is uncommon for them to personally lead them forth from their Daemon Worlds. Instead they prefer to fight against their enemies within the [[Eye of Terror]], leaving the direction of their Legions to their loyal minions and Champions.{{Fn|5c}}
