Traitor Titan Legions - Daemon Titans: All Chaos Titans are towering effigies of blasphemy and terror, walking altars to the Ruinous Powers before which the bloodiest of sacrifices are made. Yet still there exists in the galaxy things even worse than this, a class of Titan so steeped in the corruption of the Warp that it has mutated into a "Daemon Titan."These are the ultimate expressions of the corruption of the machine. Like all Titans, each was once a mechanism of steel and ceramite, controlled by a mortal princeps and their moderati, and driven by a plasma reactor harnessing the power of a star.At some point, however, the touch of Chaos has so tainted the machine that it has been transformed into something else entirely. The savants and daemonologists of the Ordo Malleus know little of the true nature of the Daemon Titans, for to contemplate such things is to court damnation and madness, but all appear to agree on one thing -- Daemon Titans are driven not by the will of a mortal princeps, but by that of a Daemon called forth from the Sea of Souls, and a powerful one at that.Invested with an infernal malignance as potent as a Greater Daemon, Daemon Titans are relentless engines of destruction. Though clad in metal, they have no need of fuel or ammunition. The maintenance rituals required to keep other Chaos Titans operational are meaningless to such an engine of war, though they make other demands upon those who would call upon them to make war against the Imperium. It is said that in between battles, a Daemon Titan must be constantly supplicated with blood and blasphemy, its unholy thirst slaked by offerings of suffering and murder.In battle, Daemon Titans are Chaos incarnate. Their eyes rage with the ravening madness of the Warp, the air about them distorting as reality itself is tortured by their presence in the mortal realm.Daemon Titans rarely heed the strategies of those who call upon them, fighting according to their own unknowable drives and desires. In truth, the Daemon bound within the Titan's metal form appears concerned only that it reaps the highest possible toll of souls to the glory of those few powers higher than itself in the pantheon of the Warp.Of all the foes a Daemon Titan might encounter upon the field of battle, of all the deaths it might claim in the name of the Ruinous Powers, enemy Titans in the service of the God-Emperor of Humanity are sought above all others.Having sighted an Imperial Titan, there is little in the galaxy that can stop a Daemon Titan from engaging it, and woe betide any who stand in its path as it charges its foe, cannon blazing, chainblade screaming, Power Fists crackling and a daemonic howl of savage rage stunning or even slaughtering all in the vicinity.In appearance, a Daemon Titan might be taken for a gargantuan manifestation of a Greater Daemon of the same patron Ruinous Power and indeed, Ordo Malleus savants have debated the difference to, and sometimes beyond, the point of sanity in a vain effort to quantify the unfathomable permutations of Chaos.Those Daemon Titans dedicated to Khorne are beasts of burning brass and steaming blood, their heads wrought into snarling beast faces.The Daemon Titans of Nurgle are lumbering masses of decay and corruption, metal tarnished and surrounded by a black storm cloud of plague flies so thick they foul enemy guns and vehicles, and force themselves down the throats of enemy troops.Daemon Titans dedicated to Tzeentch are clad in impossible colours and reality itself is bent out of kilter by the sorcerous power radiating from their form.Those dedicated to Slaanesh are lithe and incongruously fast, their forms surmounted by wicked blades and surrounded by a haze of psychoactive mist.These and a thousand other blasphemous manifestations of the infernal are a relentless curse upon the Imperium of Man, a curse that only intensifies as the Era Indomitus grows bloodier with each passing year.
