So hey guys I'd like your idea on this idea I've had for a small csm force
Basically they would be a group of marines who have turned from the emporer said go away to the chaos gods and turned to ol lucifer himself. Now in game terms anythung with a invun would get the mark of tzeench everything else gets slaanesh. So do you think this would be a cool theme or do you think it'd offend anyone

Well, considering it doesn't exist, I'd only be offended by how dull and out of fluff it is.
Not particularly creative.

So you're saying they left the Emperor, refused to follow the Dark Gods, and then began to follow one of Slaneesh's greatest champions? Makes no sense to be honest.

Yeah lucifer isn't real in the 40k universe so it doesn't really make sense.

Lucifer, "Satan"? Who, btw, isn't cannon in Christianity. Or Lucius the Eternal, of Slaanesh?
Or something else?
There are a number of things you could do with a warband that agrees with neither Big E nor the Chaos Gods, but this is one of the least inventive and most outside-the-fluff options.

I hope it's Lucius, because then you can have a story of corruption and intrigue that delves into the politics between mortals and daemons.

I think they meant Lucifer, as in the Devil. Which I've always found the concept pretty interesting in 40K. "Lucifer" may not be real, but some dark entity posing as the cloven fellow we've come to know... I think it'd be cool to have a dark band of Chaos Space Marines ensnared by some other dark entity in the Warp.
I don't fully understand warp lore but if I remember correctly, aren't there entities in the warp that serve none of the higher powers?

Eh, sort of not really...
You got the 4 Gods of Chaos: Khorne, Slaanesh, Tzeentch and Nurgle. They have the vast majority of the warp under their control. You then have some minor deities like Malal, who represent other aspects of chaos. Malal's sctick being that he represents the chaotic nature of chaos, and thus fights chaos.
Then you get these god's daemons and daemon princes, many of which have god-like powers. The best example being Be'lakor, the first DP of chaos, who was created by all four major gods. He thinks himself free of control from the gods, but is just a super-slave.
The idea of Lucifer does not really fit the warp, imo, as he has no specific representation other than "I am the evil". Which is too simplistic for the warp. The warp itself being amoral - it understands there is no difinitive good or evil, just manifestations of metaphorical stuff.

If you think its a good idea, go for it!
If you want to tie it in with existing 40k fluff, perhaps 'Lucifer' is really Malice, Belakor, a Catan, the Emperor's Evil Twin... who knows!

Well if we reallly want to get technical the 4 gods are aspects of him :p
My idea for it is basically they find this world with a ruined temple after they have turned renegade and within they find a book of prophecy which states that when the end of days come lucifer and his legions will return. As such this warband would be running around trying to gather the energy to revive him. Obviouslt the Big 4 wouldnt exactly be happy with him returning either
