Rank 1: Chaos Gods
The oldest beings of the Warhammer world are the four Chaos Gods, even if they cheat a little. The Chaos Gods exist outside of time and space.
The four great Chaos Gods are:
- Khorne, the Blood God on his Skull Throne – he and his followers stand for war, brutality, and wrath.
- Tzeentch, the Changer of Ways – he is the God of Change, Sorcery, and Manipulation.
- Father Nurgle – the God of Plague breeds all kinds of diseases and plagues in his “garden.” His “gifts” bring death and decay.
- Slaanesh, the youngest of the Chaos Gods – he loves excess and tempts his followers with all kinds of indulgences.
Their home is the Realm of Chaos – a parallel dimension of the Warhammer world. In that realm, each of the gods has its own domain, which grows or shrinks depending on the number of followers. It is also the Chaos Gods who, with Archaon, the most powerful of all Chaos Champions, brought about the downfall of the Old World.
You will be able to experience the downfall of the Old World in Total War: Warhammer 3 starting summer 2026. The “Lords of the End Times” DLC is set to be released, bringing the arch-villain Nagash into the game.
