Overview
Morality, Slavery, and Corruption
- Slavery: Practically irrelevant; Khorne’s followers prioritize battle and bloodshed over structured societies. Captives may be killed or forced to fight, but not enslaved formally.
- Non-consent sexual relationships: Considered weakness; lust is despised and suppressed in favor of rage and honor in combat.
- Vulnerability to Chaos corruption: Very high. Already devoted to Khorne, further corruption manifests as greater bloodlust and mutations, enhancing martial ferocity.
Strengths & Weaknesses
- Strengths: Unmatched martial ferocity, courage, and resilience; thrives in chaos and combat; fearsome presence.
- Weaknesses: Single-minded rage limits subtlety, strategy, and social interactions; blind bloodlust can be exploited.
Combat
While these classes are available to all characters, Chaos Warriors devoted to this god can only choose from this specific subset of classes.
| Compatible Classes | |

| Vanguard | |
| Bastion | Berserker |
| None | |
Gender Roles & Sexuality
Gender Roles
- Khorne’s followers are almost entirely male-coded in behavior; emphasis is on martial prowess, rage, and dominance.
- Combat ability and strength determine status; no formal gender hierarchy exists among daemonic warriors.
- Female-coded daemons exist (Bloodletters, Daemonettes of other lore) but are rare and rarely mentioned; functionally, all are lethal warriors.
Sexuality
- Khorne despises indulgence, including sexual pleasure. Sexuality is irrelevant or suppressed; followers are motivated entirely by battle, blood, and honor in combat.
- Erotic acts are considered weakness; lust is taboo and punishable.
- Any sexualized depiction of Khorne’s warriors in lore is extremely rare or symbolic, often reflecting domination and aggression rather than desire.
Attitudes toward Other Races (Sexualized)
- Sexualization of other races is **nonexistent**; Khorne’s followers view all beings as enemies or prey for slaughter.
- Focus is entirely on combat, rage, and bloodshed rather than erotic fascination.
