Warp
,→Warp Entities: citation
The Warp, though utterly hostile to creatures of the material realm, is home to its own form of life.{{Fn|3}} These are often voracious entities which are drawn to the psychic emanations of mortals of real space - these creatures include the [[Vampyre]], [[Psychneuein]], [[Astral Spectre]], [[Astral Hound]],{{Fn|3b}} [[Enslaver]]{{Fn|3a}} and most terrifying and numerous of all, the [[daemon|Daemons of Chaos]].{{cite this}}
Ships traveling in the Warp are shielded against attacks from these creatures. Without these [[Warp drive#Gellar Field|shields]], travelers through the Warp would be consumed by daemons.{{cite thisFn|13a}}
The Warp is also the realm of the four [[Gods of Chaos]]: [[Khorne]], [[Slaanesh]], [[Tzeentch]], and [[Nurgle]]. Though the Warp and the Chaos Gods are formed of the same energy and are practically synonymous, each god has a form that embodies their personalities and dwells at the heart of their realms.{{Fn|2b}}
