I think that worst fates to be are:tortured for eternity by chaos gods,captured by DE or be "upgraded" by the Men of Iron(this last is from Warhammer Monthly number 36).
Getting captured by Dark Eldar.
Dark Eldar: "Congratulations, human, you get to be the power source for Mr. Talos! After we violate you with a stick made of bees, of course"
Me: "BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
This is the upgrade by the Iron Men and we all finally know how one model of them looks.
Automatically Appended Next Post: I will add one more picture later where the arbiter is the only human left with the Iron Man after other humans escape and he looks much more worse than in this picture.

WHAT IS THAT, WHAT IS THAT? OH NO, NOT THE BEES! BEEEEEEEEEEES!!!! AAAAH! AAAAAH!
I still think anything involving bees would be the worst. Think about it, the 41st Millenium sucks enough already, and then, out of nowhere, MILLIONS OF ANGRY BEES. About the only thing you could do is run around crying and crapping yourself screaming "OH GOD IM COVERED IN BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!"
1. Having a Snotling teleported into your body by a Shokk Attack Gun, where it frantically skreels and claws its way through your inner organs trying to reach the world again.
2. Being the mightiest of warriors (Abaddon, Ghazghkull, Logan, anyone at all) and being instantly turned into a squig. And then being eaten by a hungry Ork.
That too. Or (if you're in 40k) having to be turned into a bad conversion.
SM Box: Well, it's only a matter of time. We're so popular, soon we'll be bought and put together and made into a badass army! It must suck to be those Dark Eldar in the corner shelf over there. No one ever buys them.
Dark Eldar Box: *laughs* Oh yeah? Well at least I get a good view of the counter from here. Guess who just bought you?
...Have you visited our FLGS or something recently? That's exactly what kids here try to pull. (Some are decent enough, but they all have Space Marines and they're ALL painted Ultramarines.)
What impresses me is that the 8-year-olds have more talent when painting IG and Eldar than any of the 10/12-year-olds with Space Marines.
Captured by Dark Eldar or Slaaneshi followers. Others would hurt you physically, they would violate you. Violate you in every orifice of your body. Your arse, your mouth, your ears, your nostrils, and more than likely, your bellybutton (If you have an outie, they will make it an innie).
Youre fate is to anger just everyone you met.
Now this may not look bad, but since some of them really want to hurt you and there is no chance for forgiveness,
the amount of enemies will eternally rise.
The second curse kicks in and you realize you can't get killed. Yes you suffer, but in the end a mysterious 3rd party
"likes" you somehow and teleports you out of danger and heals you.
Sounds nice?
Maybe at first, but if anything you do ends in pain and you get nearly killed.....
No matter where you turn or whom you oppose, you live on.
You don't achieve anything. Soon your first curse kicks in, turning everyone against you.
Just run and suffer eternally.....

Wouldn't be enough.
EVERYTHING is against you.
Every single beeing.
Even kittens.
*mumbles* Damn kittens and their non-forgiveness
How about, falling in battle and as you lay dying in the ditch you hear a voice "Uumm, dis umie looks nice an strong for a good time" The guardsman looks up to see an ork in full drag, pokadot dress, army boots and red rosie cheeks. Emperor forbid....
.... Well someone was always going to lower the tone, may as well get it over and done with
Living on an imperial world that is falling to chaos and resisting months and months until finally as a very last resort, joining the traitors to save your sorry skin. Just as you finish your initiation (branding your forehead with a chaos symbol), a Black Templars drop pod lands 30 feet away.
Worst way to Die in 40k: Being the Best, most loyal, honorable, staunchest defender of the Emperor and Humanity Guardsman.... who is the first one a Commisar sees after waking up with a bad hangover.

A Commissar with a bad hangover would probably result in the Commissar blamming himself.
1) Not drinking responsibly on the eve of battle is HERESY.
2) A hangover feels like a thousand exploding boltshells anyway...

Ooooh! That reminds me!
Worst fate: Being a member of the Mechanicum. Think about it. At some point in your career, you are going to discover Necrons. And then you are going to try to worship them and get flayed/chopped/dismembered.

OR COVERED IN SCARABS (WHICH ARE VERY SIMILAR TO BEEEEEES)
You are force fed 1000 of your people's souls a day to keep you alive.
All you want to do is finally die so your spirit can be released into the void and be reincarnated allowing you to lead your people once more. Instead, a group of power-hungry humans are keeping you alive so they can navigate the stars and they are commiting atrocities in your name.
According to the Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer, worst punishment is to be flogged then shot, and then all trace of your body immolated so that no taint remains...
being a guardsmen caught in a sweeping advance by a greater unclean one... you're not killed, just trapped in a fold of fat as it rolls over your squad!
Sorry, shas'o vera, I think you posted in the wrong thread. This is the "Worst Fates You Can Suffer in 40k" thread, not the "Awesome Stuff to Do in 40k" thread.
As it is, I think it would be fighting Nurgle. Then getting Space Aids.
Imagine the worst torture this thread can think of, and just before the victim finally expires, he's tossed into a stasis box.
Instead of a few seconds of agony you get an eternity of it.
I think living in the 41st Millenium covers "worst fate in 40k." I mean, everyone has it pretty bad. Even if you're a warmonger your 86-Bedroom Moon-Base/Mansion will probably get blown apart by a passing Chaos Fleet with nothing better to do than disrupt the tidal patterns of the peaceful fishing planet you orbited throwing their civilization into chaos. The fishermen will then be forcefully recruited into the guard regiment that comes to handle the "relief effort" resulting from the natural disasters.
I have just read the whole thred.....and my mind has been viloated in every way possible...

You think THIS is hideous? how 'bout if you were also vegetarian?
Going through the full Inquisition actions seems pretty unpleasant, and far more likely to happen than most of the things listed. Or not. I think most would cave by about the fifth.
Progressive Inquisitorial Actions wrote:First Action - Verbal interrogation of a suspect. No physical harm done.
Second Action - Threatening of further Actions. No physical harm.
Third Action - Light physical torture, followed by verbal interrogation.
Fourth Action - Light physical torture and psychological manipulation.
Fifth Action - Psychic interrogation with possible light torture and verbal interrogation.
Sixth Action - Sensory and/or physical deprivation.
Seventh Action - Intensive psychic interrogation.
Eighth Action - Use of psycho-chemical drugs.
Ninth Action - Unrelenting torture. Tremendous amounts of pain, both physical and mental. Verbal interrogation followed only if suspect survives long enough.
