==Overview==

Though the first Oliberator was created from the [[Daemon]] [[Sa'ra'am]] possessing an [[Iron Warrior]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]{{Fn|7}}, today Obliterators are rare and mysterious fighters who owe their allegiance to no particular [[Chaos God]] or [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]]. Instead they form an insular cult obsessed with the pursuit of technological and alchemical knowledge and the fusion of flesh and steel. Its members, usually former [[Techmarine]]s, have been infected with a contagion known as the [[Obliterator Virus]], which sears their flesh to their armour and grows them into massive behemoths with devastating powers.{{Fn|4}} It is believed that the Obliterator Virus was a creation of the [[Dark Mechanicus]], the culmination of their quest to fuse technology and biology.{{Fn|6}}
