Fabius is proud of his New Men, but he also believes they must eventually kill him to realise their destiny, a fate he is willing to accept. Bile engineered all urges for religion out of his New Men, but they still revere him.{{Fn|5a}} They are also engineered to not be nervous or feel fear, however, some might feel fear for their maker if his life is threatened.{{Fn|5b}} Some mistakenly believe that the hordes of [[Beastmen]] and other mutants that Fabius often uses as cannon-fodder are, in fact, his "New Men". Fabius finds this thought amusing.{{Fn|5c}} The fervent worship the New Men have given of Fabius, despite his best efforts to discourage such behavior, has nonetheless stirred a minor [[Chaos God]] within the [[Warp]] dubbed the [[Pater Mutatis]].{{Fn|2b}}
Shortly before the [[Battle of Belial IV]], Fabius realized his "children" would come under retaliation from the [[Dark Eldar]] enemies he had made. In desperation, he journeyed to the [[Daemon World]] of [[Callax]] and met with [[Fulgrim]]. Fabius requested Fulgrim protect the New Men from the Drukhari. he brought with him to Callax from the Drukhari. The [[Daemon Primarch]] agreed, but only if Fabius pledged his soul and his creations to [[Slaanesh]]. Though willing to sacrifice himself, Fabius refused to offer the New Men to the forces of Chaos. A compromise was reached: Fabius would submit to Slaanesh, but his creations would be free to decide their own fate.{{Fn|2c}}
