Jehgenesh
A Jehgenesh (literally a "drinker of seas") is a Chaos beast that acts as a Warp Gate for transportation of liquids (such as water, oil, promethium, and certain gas reserves). The liquid swallowed by these daemonic creatures is sent through the Warp to be ejected onto another planet, sometimes across entire star systems. When dormant and infolded, a Jehgenesh is small enough to be stored within a glass canister. But when released into an abundant source of water (or any liquids), it will grow exponentially and be ready to function within days.
Chaos forces use these daemons to transport billions of cubic metres of water (and other liquids) to the planets that need them. The Sons of Sek have been known to utilize a number of Jehgeneshes on Gereon to supply water to at least nine of Magister Anakwanar Sek's conquered worlds.
