Nemeroth

Will you be joining us soon...Brother ?

Nemeroth is a Chaos Terminator Sorcerer Lord of the Chaos Warband known as the Chosen of Nemeroth. He is the main villain of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine.

Overview

When Inquisitor Drogan started experimenting on Warp based weaponry, Nemeroth took a great interest in his work. For Drogan's experiments would have helped in further combating the Imperium and his ambition into ascending into Daemonhood. Nemeroth's plan was to send a Daemon to possess Drogan, and then use the mysterious power source that he had to power Drogan's weapon known as the "Psychic Scourge" (which would allow the creation of a Warp Gate that could allow Nemeroth's Chaos Fleet to enter real space). All went Just as planned when Captain Titus unknowingly helped the Daemon possessed Drogan in enacting his plan.

As Nemeroth entered real space and incapacitated Titus, Nemeroth fought against Warboss Grimskull and both fell off a balcony during the struggle. After Grimskull got his face blown up by Titus, the Imperial Forces focused on the Chaos Forces. Nemeroth, wanting the power source, sent his minions to seize it from Titus whilst he waited in the Orbital spire (which the Warp gate opened and was starting to enlarge). Titus however, used the power source to boost the Titan Invictus to destroy the Orbital spire, closing the gate. However, Nemeroth was still determined, and so killed Sidonus, who had the power source, and took said power source back with him to the ruined spire.

Nemeroth again faced Titus on top of the spire. Whilst Titus killed off Nemeroth's minions, Nemeroth was already ascending to Daemonhood. However, Titus plunged the partially Daemonized Nemeroth and himself off the spire and commenced in an incredibly anti-climatic and incredibly easy struggle during free fall where Titus crushed Nemeroth's head.

Trivia

• He has likely taken Eliphas' fad of calling Space Marines "Brothers", as Nemeroth refers to Titus as "Brother".
• His name, when taking out the 'me', reads as Neroth. This shows Relics endless creativity in making names.
