Description

A Daemonhost is a grotesque fusion of a powerful Daemon of Chaos and a mortal host, created through dark rituals that bind the Daemon to the host's body. This unholy abomination serves its creator while constantly plotting its escape, embodying the malevolence of the Warp and the torment of its captive soul.
