They eat ammunition and drink Promethium, it is said, for whatever energies an Obliterator consumes, he can replicate within himself.Įach of their number is an inhuman arcano-cyborg whose blood can become roiling plasma, whose internal organs generate electricity, and whose brain is as much cognitive targeting engine as living tissue. Their flesh is stretched and distorted across an exoskeleton of metal and plasteel, and pistons writhe and churn under their sallow skin. Obliterators tower over their Chaos Space Marine brethren, and they are usually at least as broad as they are tall, dwarfing even the Terminator-armoured escorts of their lords.
Because of their Chaos-born powers, Obliterators are capable of not only absorbing weaponry into themselves, but also of manifesting munitions from their titanium-laced flesh.
It is only the changeling power of the Warp that allows this process to take place, melding the inert and the animate together on a spiritual level in order to form something far greater than mere cybernetics. The technomagi of Mars dream of achieving such a symbiosis, but in truth, only their Heretek brothers in the Dark Mechanicum have mastered the complete fusion of metal and flesh. Their forms are so altered, so thoroughly conjoined with the tools of war, that every cell in their bodies thrills with a spark of mechanical life. The monstrous warriors of the Obliterator Cults amongst the Heretic Astartes are a blasphemy against nature and Machine God alike. Obliterators are rarely part of an existing Traitor Legion or Renegade Space Marine warband they prefer to sell their services to the highest bidder amongst the forces of Chaos in return for access to the archeotech that they crave. This insanity is also possibly caused by the Machine Spirits of his weapons and armour fusing into a destructive daemonic entity after infection by the virus. This insanity could be caused by the constant mental and physical trauma of absorbing weapons into the Obliterator's body or being biologically welded by his own body to his armour.
Chaos Obliterators are biologically fused to their suits of Power Armour.Īs a result of their mutation, Obliterators are no longer even remotely sane. These unfortunates can spawn these weapons from their very flesh, and also grow ammunition for them. An Obliterator is able to absorb any weapon into its body that is held for too long. They are monstrous hybrids of Human, Daemon and machine. Heretical Teachings of Arch-Magos Erzahd BogeĪ Chaos Obliterator leading the charge in battle.Īn Obliterator is a Chaos Space Marine, often a former Techmarine, who is believed to have been affected by a so-called "technovirus," a daemonic, Warp-powered virus that transformed these once-loyal servants of the Imperium into bloodthirsty mutant weapons of Chaos. Flesh and bone are weak, yet through technology and the pacts we have with these so-called Infernal Forces, we can remake ourselves." " Through the application and harnessing of the Immaterium, the very force of creation itself, we can remake ourselves.
