===Age of Strife===
[[File:KhorneForces.jpg|thumb|right|250px|The forces of Khorne.{{Fn|}}]]
Throughout humanity's [[Age of Strife]], Khorne's [[Bloodthirster]] generals lead [[Blood Legions]] in wars across the galaxy. Many worlds, both human and xenos, fell to Chaos or were destroyed in the [[Warp Storm]]s appearing across the galaxy. Towards the end of this era, when the being known as the [[Emperor]] neared his completion of the [[Primarch Project]], [[Tzeentch]] sensed potential chain of events that could someday cause the downfall of the Chaos Gods. Thus Tzeentch manipulated the dark powers that flung the nascent [[Primarch]]s from their sanctum.{{Fn|7b}}

{{main|The Lost and the Damned}}
The lives of mortals go mostly unnoticed by the Chaos Gods, being little more than a brief flicker to their cosmic consciousnesses. They care nothing for mortals, only that they are continually fed their souls and emotions. Some of the most devoted followers' deeds might gain the momentary fraction of a god's attention, sometimes bestowing [[Marks of Chaos|Marks]] and [[Gifts of Chaos]], alongside other 'boons' to their apparent followers.{{Fn|4}}
