Editing Daemon Prince (section)

==Famous Daemon Princes==

===Daemon Primarchs===
* [[Lorgar]], [[Primarch]] of the [[Word Bearers]], really, ''really'' dedicated to Chaos Undivided. Doesn't do shit these days, but recently got off of the couch to teach [[Abaddon|Abby]] new techniques for summoning daemons. After the Great Rift opened, Lorgar finally decided to get a real job and has started to personally lead his legion again. He has recently been seen in the material realm leading a large host of Word Bearers for reasons yet to be known.
* [[Perturabo]], Primarch of the [[Iron Warriors]], technically dedicated to Chaos Undivided, [[Malal|but mostly to himself]]. Doesn't do much these days, but manages to royally fuck shit up when he does. Taking advantage of the Great Rift by launching a massive invasion of his own like Lorgar.
* [[Mortarion]], Primarch of the [[Death Guard]], dedicated to Nurgle. Gets into some antics with [[Grey Knights]] once in a while. Has now appeared to have gotten off his ass and is now bringing <s> death and decay</s> [[Nurgle|Granddaddy's]] cuddles to the wider Imperium.
* [[Angron]], Primarch of the [[World Eaters]], dedicated to Khorne. It's hard to be certain of course, but it'd probably be safe to say that he's the strongest of Khorne's Daemon Princes, at least in terms of raw combat prowess. Somewhat gained the favour of the fanbase since before GW decided to [[Advance the Storyline]] with the end of 7th Edition and the beginning of 8th, Angron was the only Daemon Primarch who reliably, actually did shit. Also notable for being the first Daemon Primarch with rules since [[Epic]]. ''Before'' his physical, 30K version got rules. Post-Great Rift he's continued business as usual, and given a new model on the way as well as a serious marketing push, it seems he has something big in the works. Starting with painting an entire world red due to a psionic device on it giving him a migraine.
* [[Magnus the Red]], Primarch of the [[Thousand Sons]], "dedicated" to Tzeentch. Spent most of the last ten millennia hanging out at the top of his wizard's tower, derping out and shouting "JUST AS PLANNED" when something happens and it can be interpreted as beneficial. Occasionally has an actual fight with the [[Space Wolves|Space Puppies]]. Recently avenged Prospero by wrecking the Fenris system. He got banished by Logan Grimnar, which was JUST AS PLANNED, because the Space Wolves went to Cadia, leaving Fenris undefended, at which point, he brought his daemon planet into the Materium and has been fucking the Imperium up ever since. Just. As. Planned. Also participated in the Invasion of the Stygius Sector.
* [[Fulgrim]], Primarch of the [[Emperor's Children]], except it's actually just his body possessed by a Daemon. [[Retcon|Or maybe not.]] Shit's weird at this point. Dedicated to Slaanesh. Spends his days on his Pleasure Planet getting bored with mass-daemonette-orgies. TOTALLY has nothing to do with the giant, serpent bodied monster currently fucking 11 different kinds of shit up with Lucius. Speaking of which, he and Lucius are also launching their own invasion of the Imperium. The Word Bearers lamenting on how numerous and powerful the Emperor's Children are see Fulgrim as a potential challenge.
* [[Horus Lupercal]] of the [[Sons of Horus]] died at the end of the [[Horus Heresy]] in the [[Siege of Terra]], and his soul was wiped from existence, meaning he never ascended as a Daemon Prince.
* [[Konrad Curze]] of the [[Night Lords]] allowed himself to be assassinated by the [[Officio Assassinorum]] and never became a Daemon Prince.
* [[Alpharius]] [[Omegon]] of the [[Alpha Legion]] isn't/aren't (weren't?) a Daemon Prince, and that is all that is known for sure about him/them.

===Dedicated to [[Khorne]]===
* [[Doombreed]], the first Daemon Prince of [[Khorne]], and some sources say the first Daemon Prince ever. (The rest say it was [[Be'lakor]], a possible way to reconcile is that Doombreed's the first Human Daemon Prince, while Be'lakor was some ancient alien.) Likely Genghis Khan.
* Kraxnar, his bro in the original counter-based game "Warmaster" who was later replaced with some asshole called [[N'kari]].
* [[Azariah Kyras]], heretical [[Chapter Master]] and Chief [[Librarian]] of the [[Blood Ravens]] and, apparently, [[C.S.Goto|Khornate Sorcerer]]. He still gets killed in [[Dawn of War II|DoW II: Retribution]]. Since his ascension was only partly finished, he may still have been mortal, meaning he might be back eventually, though odds are that he was permakilled. Although it was Ulkair who turned him to the dark ones, it was the very daemon freed from the first game of Dawn of War that made it's home in his body
* [[Samus]], a weird warp entity with no relation to the vidya character (he'd probably bite the gravel if he tried to fight her for the right to be called the one true Samus), who is basically just summoned by arbitrary death when the plot of the Horus Heresy calls for it. According to Forge World, he's basically a daemon prince of the Ruinstorm and fucked with the Smurfs a lot, and was also one of the first daemons encountered by Horus before he fell to Chaos (though at the time, it was assumed to be "only an unusual xenos"). Might still be active in M41, though less powerful without his Ruinstorm bonuses.
*[[Sindri Myr]], though it wasn't long before [[Gabriel Angelos]] banished him. Sindri was probably expecting to just come back, since the whole reason you become a Prince is to be immortal, but instead found himself in the belly of a Greater Daemon (he's only technically one of the K-man's princes since he ascended using a Khornate daemon's power, but he himself undivided).
*[[Valkia the Bloody]], a daemonic equivalent of a Valkyrie, she was originally a badass viking shield maiden, killed a lot (and we mean '''a lot''') of people for her patron God, had two children, killed her husband and a bit later defeated a Slaanesh daemon prince in close combat. She then mounted the head of said prince on her shield and went to the Chaos Wastes to present her trophy to Khorne, but tripped at the goal line. Khorne was mad as fuck and brought her back to life, turning her into the entity she is today, coated in armour that constantly bleeds and being quite literally dead sexy.
*Uraka Az'baramael, also known as the Warfiend. He and his armies had shed so much blood in life that upon his death he was summoned to Khorne's realm. There Khorne issued a challenge. He must defeat a Bloodthirster in single combat. If he won, he would be elevated to daemon prince, if he lost, he would become something [[Chaos Spawn|less nice]]. He accepted, and chose a Great Executioner's axe as his weapon. He battled and decapitated the bloodthirster and was elevated to daemon princehood. He leads the daemonic warband known as Uraka's Head-Hunters. He was last sighted during the Vraks Campaign where he battled and was defeated by the Grey Knights.

===Dedicated to [[Slaanesh]]===
[[File:Ax'Senaea.jpg|400px|right|thumb|Worship Slaanesh and be a hot Daemon Princess instead!]]
* Some Slaaneshi asshole called [[N%27kari|N'Kari]]... maybe. Nowadays they're apparently a [[Greater Daemon]].
* Ax'Senaea the Thrice Possessed, a power-mad lady who completely subjugated the planet of Laodomida, but wanted to control her mind (note that she is so solipsistic that these are the same to her). She was bonkers, so a sorcerer convinced her to be possessed by a Slaaneshi [[Keeper of Secrets]], hinting that it would give her the power to do so, but in reality, the sorcerer was expecting the daemon to kill her. After all, no one but the most potent of psykers can hope to bind a greater daemon to their will without being completely possessed by the daemon instead. It backfired on him, getting himself killed in the process, as Ax'Senaea managed to subjugate the daemon ''through sheer arrogance and self-obsession''. Yes, she managed to make a greater daemon heel by being a bitch. She eventually used her new-found psychic powers to exert even more control over Laodomida and more nearby planets, in the process, drinking up two more Keepers of Secrets after draining each of them of their power before banishing them back to the warp. When she got to the fourth one, [[Slaanesh]] had noticed her talent and turned her into a daemon princess, which was also a jab to his/her servants for being too weak to defend themselves from a human. In true Slaaneshi fashion, however, despite attaining the highest daemonic honor her god(dess), she still desires more power and control over everything, and now seeks to subjugate daemons now instead of just humans. That's right, this egotistical psycho [[Awesome|ate at least three Greater Daemons and has almost certainly continued post ascension]]. Lowkey one of the most terrifyingly powerful if her quest for soul food continues.
*[[Doomrider]], bike riding Slaanesh prince on fire. Back in the old days he'd show up, wreck face and disappear back into the warp before the game's end. Now he's apparently a severed head in the White Scars' Fortress-Monastery.
* The Mistress of Spite, a horrifically fat daemon princess who ascended after singlehandedly eating the populations of entire worlds. Used to be one of N'Kari's girlfriends before he dumped her; she started taking over the Daemon World of Contrition to try and woo him back, but now she simply makes life there hell for the resident daemons for the sheer sake of feeding on their despair. Notable features include 6 horns, three arms (the third has a huge pincer for a hand) and horrifically vagina-like orifices on each forearm that are sheathes for razor-sharp extendable bone spurs. (are we sure that this is Slaanesh's work, or is this some Tzeentchian monstrosity................. probably both)
* [[Azazel]], the Prince of Damnation, literally the first Daemon Prince character to ever be playable (way back in ''Champions of Chaos''). Said to have been the leader of the Gerreon Tribe in Warhammer Fantasy, but he betrayed Sigmar and fled to the Northern Wastes to serve Slaanesh. Looks like an incredibly beautiful angel, until one spots the horns that curl from his brow, the chitinous claw of his left hand, and the two-headed scorpion-like tail that sprouts behind him. So beautiful he can hypnotise anyone who looks at him and turn them into his slave. In the [[End Times]], he attacked [[Karl Franz]] and tried to taunt and shit talk him but since Karl had merged with Sigmar, he got destroyed.
* The Sapphire King, a metaphysical manifestation of the [[Iron Hands]] being really really cross at Fulgrim. He can turn Iron Hands into [[Chaos Spawn|Chaos You-know-whats]] just by standing next to them. He got his shit pushed in by [[Chapter Master Smashfucker|Ironfather Kardan Stronos]].
* [[Syll'Esske|Esske]]. A former gladiator in the pits of pleasure who fell in love with a Slaaneshi Hearald and almost died before being raised to Princehood and joining his lover in becoming a super-powerful murder-couple.
* [[Dechala]] the (no longer) Denied One also got to ascend after the End Times, to the point of being worshipped by mortals as "She Who Was Denied".

===Dedicated to [[Tzeentch]]===
* Phokulozortis, a Daemon Prince residing in [[Black Crusade (RPG)|the Screaming Vortex]]. A shapeshifter who loves to answer botched summonings and bungled invocations whilst pretending to be the intended daemon, in which guise he feigns being the sorcerer's loyal minion, but secretly screws them over. In his true form, he has the many-mouthed tentacled mass of a lower body like a giant Flamer of Tzeentch, four arms, and three heads like those of a Lord of Change. Artwork vs. descriptive text contradicts each other if he has wings like a Lord of Change as well, though.
* Ghargatuloth, one of the most powerful Daemon Princes in existence, requiring over 300 Grey Knights invading a planet to kill it ([[Exterminatus|there's obviously not better alternatives]] though considering his power and trickery it could have backfired). His body is, in essence, a thousand-mile high erect penis with mouths and eyes all over it. Despite massive amounts of [[Just As Planned]] with a scheme taking a thousand years to fulfill, and allegedly being one of the most intelligent daemons that Tzeentch has ever created, he fails again and again because of the Grey Knights - armed with plot twists so contrived and plot armor so thick that not even the Shaper Of Ways' right hand had a chance.
* Thunderfist, originally a Tzeentch-worshipping alchemist whose cult fled after his mutation (psychedelic skin and dimensional instability) became discovered, but somehow survived long enough to lead an army of misfits and monsters. Tzeentch elevated him to daemonhood after he singlehandedly slew the Nurgle champion Festus with only his spells. One of two Chaos Champions created by Games Workshop back when they first wrote ''Realms of Chaos'', used to highlight how the [[Path to Glory]] rules worked.

===Dedicated to [[Nurgle]]===
* Bubonicus, originally the sole member of his village to survive a plague thanks to his prayers to Nurgle, who led a horde of [[beastmen]] and cultists out of the forests of the Old World and into the Chaos Wastes, where after many years of hardship and struggle they reached the Glades of Nurgle, where Nurgle rewarded Lothar's faith with daemonic ascension. One of two Chaos Champions created by Games Workshop back when they first wrote ''Realms of Chaos'', used to highlight how the [[Path to Glory]] rules worked.
* Mamon, or the "Arch-Corruptor of Vraks," a deacon who fell to Chaos and brought down most of Vraks and Cardinal Xaphan with him.
* Cor’bax Utterblight, a Daemon Prince of the Ruinstorm brought into the Horus Heresy by the [[Word Bearers]]. More or less a mountain of filth, Nurglings and plague.
* Ignatius Grulgor, a former Captain of the Pre-Heresy Death Guard 2nd Great Company. Famous for getting killed by Nathaniel Garro, only to be raised a Plague Marine, killed again, and eventually raised a Daemon Prince. Like a lot of Nurgle Daemon Princes, Grulgor doesn't do a lot lately, and his current whereabouts are unknown.
* [[Foulspawn]] - The only Chaos Spa... '''THING''' ever raised to Princedom.

===Dedicated to [[Chaos Undivided]]===
* [[Nemeroth]], who got it even worse than Sindri: he was killed DURING his ascension rather than immediately afterward, which means he might not be back.
* [[M'kar]], some loser from the [[Word Bearers]] whose only purpose for appearing in any fluff is get to his ass handed to him by the [[Space Marines]]. Ironically, he's taken more seriously in Grey Knights. (Mostly because he managed to troll Kaldor "He makes it happen" Draigo. And then it sort of backfired....*)
* [[Eliphas the Inheritor]] as of the [[Dawn of War]] series, but not really. In ''Dawn of War: Dark Crusade'', he can take it as his ultimate upgrade; since the [[Blood Ravens]] were the canon victors in that story, he instead gets mulched by an unnamed daemon prince for [[Abaddon|failure]]. In ''Dawn of War II: Retribution'', the outro for the Chaos campaign gives a glimpse of a newly-daemoned-up Eliphas. Of course, with Dawn of War 3 out to verify what we already know, the Blood Ravens are the canonical winners again. That leaves Eliphas either dead again or serving penance as [[/d/|the bottom]] for [[Abaddon]]'s pet [[Chaos Spawn|Chaos SpaAARRGH]]. It's largely moot in the end of course, since Eliphas is so badass that becoming a Daemon Prince is a ''demotion'' for him.
** By which we mean the playable Daemon Prince upgrade from Dark Crusade sucks ([[Derp|trading campaign exclusive upgrades for a daemon prince unit designed for multiplayer balance, and not a separate unit for the campaign upgrade]]), so you should never take it.
* [[Be'lakor]], the very first Daemon Prince who was such a badass in life that Princehood was a ''demot''-- wait, we just made that joke, didn't we? Shit. Well, anyway, in [[WFB]] he led the hordes of [[Chaos]] at the dawn of time, but then he became an arrogant bitch, so [[Tzeentch]] cursed him to Princehood and made him the Harbinger, who would crown the Everchosen of Chaos. In 40k, he was also the first Daemon Prince, as well as (according to [[Aaron Dembski-Bowden| some]]) the first, last, and only Daemon Prince elevated by the joint action of all four Chaos Gods. He was greatly involved in [[Abaddon]]'s rise to power (according to him), although it's likely he plans to betray the Warmaster at some point in time (something Abaddon is fully prepared for). Quite notably, Be'lakor has shown a strong tendency to undermine the plans and ambitions of other Chaos Champions; although he himself believes this to be a product of his own free will and the desire to prove his own superiority over his potential rivals, it is in fact the result of all four Chaos Gods using him as a pawn to strike at one another. Apparently unknown to them is the fact that Be'lakor's ultimate goal is to find a way to become a Chaos God himself. Also has a pretty sick metal band named after him so maybe it not all that bad.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Be%27lakor] Some people suspect he was the Dark Knight's Joker, because seriously that guy didn't even need an army to turn up Gotham City into a bloody mess and before you say he is prehuman, well, the Warp is atemporal, so yeah, traitorous Agent of Chaos anyone? (Except that it can't be right, because the Joker is on one long streak of [[Just As Planned]] for the entire goddamn movie, barely spills a drop of blood and doesn't inflict plague or despair. So he's Tzeentch through and through, with maybe a little Slaanesh in the mix.)
* Cherubael, a daemon who is unfortunate enough to wound up bound in the mortal realm as a daemon host and controlled against his will, [[FAIL|multiple times]]. Whether or not he is actually a daemon prince is up for debate as that's just what [[Gregor Eisenhorn]] called him and he never bothered to correct him. He seems to be old school as he reveres a long dead daemon king that died millennia ago when he lost a war against the Four as they came to power. Whether daemon prince or greater daemon, Cherubael is unbelievably powerful, being able to obliterate other more loosely controlled daemon hosts who have greater access to their powers as a result. Currently serving as Eisenhorn's attack dog.
* Kor Megron, like any Word Bearer legionary, began seething at the Imperium after the raising of Monarchia. He eventually achieved apotheosis ten millennia later, and was then nicknamed "Reaper of Rhodax", after the sacrificed cathedral world. Along with his Forsworn warband, he went through several rampaging campaigns, until he was put down and righteously defeated by [[Cato Sicarius]].
* Barban Falk the Warsmith, an Iron Warrior Horus Heresy veteran and Honsou's former boss.
* Torvann Lokk, another Iron Warrior. Ascended to Daemon Prince after the Great Rift. Apparently Chaos Undivided likes the Iron Warriors for their pragmatism, as unlike Word Bearer Undivided ascendees, they get shit done.
