The powers of Chaos are malevolent entities that reside in a hellish dimension known as the Warp. They are enemies of all life in the material universe. They are a manipulative force, capable of swaying the hearts, minds and souls of mortals to do their bidding.
There are four Chaos Gods (also known as the Dark Gods or the Ruinous Powers), powerful entities who control the Warp, created and sustained by the emotions and collective desires of every sentient being of the material universe.
- Khorne, the Blood God
- Nurgle, the Plague Lord
- Tzeentch, the Changer of the Ways
- Slaanesh, the Prince of Pleasure
