Within the Realm of Chaos there exist beings known as daemons, sentient creatures which are formed purely from raw chaotic energy. It is only when the winds of magic blow strongly and this energy leaks into the physical world that daemons can manifest outside of their usual habitat. Major Chaos incursions into The Old World usually occur as a result of the Realm of Chaos expanding far to the south, allowing the warbands of the mortal followers of the gods of Chaos to be accompanied by legions of capering daemons. When sorcerers and other magic users channel the winds of magic, daemons are drawn to them through the Aethyr like moths to a flame, and magic users run a constant risk of daemonic attack when casting spells, although in most cases this is very small.

As well as manifesting as independent beings, daemons can pass into the physical world by possessing the shell of a physical object. The most common vessel for possession is the body of a sentient being; humans are especially susceptible to possession. Daemons are capable of interacting with just about anything in the physical world - whatever can be affected by the Aethyr can be possessed - including weapons, animals, trees, buildings, even the land itself.

Daemon Weapons

Some daemons can be forced into servitude by being imprisoned inside a weapon; these mighty weapons are thus called daemon weapons. Daemon Weapons are extremely rare, but also very powerful, often able to tear apart reality, shoot powerful sorcerous bolts of energy, grant the wielder extraordinary physical attributes, or perform other such unnatural feats. A Chaos warrior must exercise great caution with these weapons, however, as the imprisoned daemon will often try to rebel against his master, and attempt to devour the wielder's soul. One such weapon is the Slayer of Kings, originally used by the former Everchosen Asavar Kul, although it was lost when he was defeated. It contains the Greater Daemon U'zuhl and has been recovered by the new Everchosen: Archaon, The Lord of the End Times - Although he does not appear in WAR.

Siege weapons can be possessed just as regular weapons. The most common daemonic war machine is the Hellcannon, although a few others are rumoured to exist.
