Chaos Daemons - Chaos Spawn and Daemon Princes: As a mortal worshipper of Chaos grows more powerful with each of their victories in the name of the Ruinous Powers, his patron god or gods will sometimes reward them with mutational "gifts"; by the same token, with each failure, the god could also curse them with the same changes.However, the Chaos Gods are notoriously fickle and often bestow their gifts of change without rhyme or reason. These gifts can include mutations such as extra arms, tougher skin, wings or the ability to shoot fire from one's hands, equipment such as exotic weapons or powerful armour, or even Daemonic followers such as the Daemonic Steeds.With each gift, the warrior becomes partly Daemonic themself, being tied more and more to the will of their god and becoming more and more a slave to that entity's will. As a servant of Chaos continues to distinguish themself, and successfully carry out their god's desires, this individual will continue to receive Chaos gifts.These gifts can grant the receiver untold arcane powers that will make them potentially as powerful as a Greater Daemon. As the Chaos warrior attains more and more gifts, they will ultimately face only one of two possible fates for a mortal in the service of the Ruinous Powers:If the warrior receives too many gifts and is unable to endure any more, they can be transformed into a Chaos Spawn. Some particularly powerful Chaos sorcerers have the ability to grant this dubious "gift" to a foe, instantly mutating them into a Chaos Spawn. Any servant of Chaos who has spent too much time in contact with the warping power of Chaos or the Immaterium -- perhaps through dwelling in the Eye of Terror -- may become a Chaos Spawn, even without the intervention of the Chaos Gods. Chaos Spawn are wildly mutated beasts of varied physical form, no two exactly alike, and are generally insane or non-sentient. A Chaos Spawn lives out the remainder of its pitiable existence at the whim of its God, serving as both gibbering cannon fodder for the armies of the Ruinous Powers and as a warning of the consequences of failure to all the servants of Chaos.A particularly successful Champion of Chaos who is able to withstand the "gifts" of their god and successfully champion the goals of the Ruinous Powers on multiple occasions can eventually become an exalted Daemon Prince. A Daemon Prince is among the most powerful beings that can be found on the battlefields of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. They are frequently massive in size -- much larger than a Human and at least 10 feet in height -- and are very skilled warriors with the experience of hundreds of campaigns behind them. Like all Daemons, Daemon Princes possess many potent psychic abilities. There are two types of Daemon Prince: those who have fully and willingly abandoned their mortal, physical form and have become a Daemon in their own right and those who have not yet lost their mortal form. The first type can display many of the powers of a Greater Daemon, but specialised anti-Daemonic weapons and psychic powers can be used to banish them to the Warp; the latter, while powerful and infused with the psychic powers of the Immaterium, are immune to such weapons, but can still be slain by purely physical means.
