I have made a new chaos section thing with a new god and daemon prince and colour scheme but have no idea for a name. Any suggestions?

**Lord of battles**

Well what are the characteristics? We kinda need info first.

Also WELCOME TO DAKKA!!!!

**alphapercy**

it is the lord of fire

it is like a snake with wings

and is a smaller less important god than the rest.

**Corpsesarefun**

Chaos gods embody emotion not physical things, what emotion is your god?

**alphapercy**

is anger already taken?

**Joetaco**

name him GREG! the god of social akwardness

**Corpsesarefun**

Anger is khorne

**alphapercy**

is jealousy taken?

Jealousy and paranoia are Tzeentch i think (hence the eyes).

i thought tzeench was change, slaanesh wisdom, nurgle disease and decay and khorne blood and war?

but how about... depresion?

**Platuan4th**

Khorne is the Chaos god of anger, violence, and hate.

Nurgle represents morbidity, disease and physical corruption.

Slaanesh is the Chaos God of lust, excess, pleasure, perfection and hedonism.

Tzeentch is a God of Chaos who represents the vitality and volatility of change. Tzeentch is closely associated with sorcery and magic, as well as dynamic mutation, and grand, convoluted scheming.

Tzeentch is often visualized as the serpent which writhes and twists to represent constant change and this is mirrored in its symbol with curves and points to represent change and conclusion.

In his mind Tzeentch listens to the hopes and plans of every mortal and every nation; and through his own complex plots and manipulation he alters the course of history to achieve some great plan beyond mortal knowledge.

Ok... so depresion is free!

**Platuan4th**

Yes, but they're not just emotion, but also abstract ideals, such as Malal/Malice, Chaos God of Anachy and Chaos turned upon itself.

**Fafnir**

Nurgle is depression.

Why not make a god about self destruction... perhaps name him Malal... and make his colours white and bla-- *is shot by GW executives*

You could make a god based around the further excesses of general depression, to a complete focus on sorrow, sadness, and loss, but that seems to fit the Imperium more than anything when you think about it.

**Corpsesarefun**

I think depression is free.

Tzeentch is change, paranoia, knowledge, rebirth, jealousy, cunning, plotting, discovery and confusion.

Slaanesh is lust, desire, secrets, pain, pleasure, hunger, gluttony, bloodlust, decadance, excess and general depravity.

Khorne is rage, blood, war, honour, glory, ambition, strength, brutality and betrayal.

Nurgle is happiness, consistancy, rot, decay, disease, stagnation, long life, families, protection, infection, defensiveness and solace.

Malal is self loathing, delusion and insecurity.

Only fear and depression arnt represented.

Fafnir wrote:Nurgle is depression.

No nurgle is happiness.

Fafnir wrote:Nurgle is depression.

How so? Papa Nurgle is generally depicted as jolly.

**alphapercy**

soz about this but im a noob,

**Fafnir**

If you view depression as the degredation of hapiness, you could reason that depression could be an aspect of Nurgle.

And Malal is the god of self loathing, and GW doesn't want you to know about him.

**CadianXV**

Fear and depression seem free to me. Maybe incorporate bat wings to some extent (Night Lords).

ok
my daemon prince has wings anyway!!!

**Corpsesarefun**

alphapercy wrote:soz about this but im a noob,

ahh so I will make it the lesser god of self loathing and insecurity

Thats malal, he already exists.

Fafnir wrote:If you view depression as the degredation of hapiness, you could reason that depression could be an aspect of Nurgle.

depression is the extreme opposite of happiness expressed through self loathing mostly, perhaps malal is depression?

Oh and tzeentch and khorne share fire, tzeentch for its rebirthing and unpredictability and khorne for its destruction.

How about a god of Death, the the age of 40K business has got to be good for him.
Plus it will give you a chance to make a Grim Reper minie, have him mounted on a white horse called Binky

**alphapercy**

so is there any aspect of anything that I can use?

That's Nurgle.

And Morr for Fantasy.

But Nurgle an't got a white horse

Just saying that there isn't a true Repersentive for the oldist of all things in 40K, even the Gods have to bow down before him.

that might work, making death himself

**Corpsesarefun**

Death in 40k is the nightbringer, a necron god.

Although as chaos gods tzeench would be death itself due to its change factor, nurgle would be dying and dead.

What does that have to do with anything? Most depictions of Death in art have nothing to do with a horse. The ONLY mention of a horse is in Revelations.

As well, Nurgle is based off the Babylonian god Nergal, god of War and Pestilence, who presides over the underworld.

**alphapercy**

if it were to be the god of technology would that work or would that be tzeench or slaanesh?
