==[[Daemons of chaos]] Unit Entry==
<sup>1</sup>Bloodthirsters are the most deadly of all Khorne's Daemons. A single Bloodthirster is a harbinger of bellowing death to an entire army of mortals, for it is destructive beyond telling, and lives only for the call to slaughter, maim and rend. It is the fury of war given form, the unfettered primal rage of the world made manifest. Bloodthirsters are hate-filled creatures whose mere presence drives mortal and daemon alike into an unquenchable frenzy. Their master is the Chaos god of bloodletting, and Bloodthirsters are ranked supreme as the most skilled and ferocious fighters ever to rampage across the field of battle.
Those few who have confronted a bloodthister and survived commonly recall an overwhelming impression of vast size and unchecked barbarity, of roaring and snarling death riding upon stygian wings immense enough to eclipse the sun. A Bloodthirster's ruddy skin is covered with coarse fur and brass armor, slick and gleaming with the blood of innumerable victims. This armor is forged upon the daemon's flesh by Khrone himself and thereafter becomes a living part of the daemon. As such, even the Bloodthirster's armor is sustained by the unholy and immortal energies that drive the daemon's murderous rampage.<sup>1</sup>
