Mandari
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Mandari were a Chaos Cult that fought for the Word Bearers during the Battle of Calth. Known as the 'gene-kin', they were bound by some combination of technology and genetics to the service of the Warp in such a way that they believed utterly they would be re-born immediately after their deaths into a new and glorious form. The Word Bearers promised the Mandari Gene-kin that they were in essence immortal. After apparent death, their corpses were observed gaining mutations and becoming monsters with little resemblance to their human forms.[1]
