==The Road to Power==
The '''road to power''' begins by offering body and spirit to Chaos: either to an individual Chaos Power or to Chaos as a whole. Not all who choose to dedicated themselves are accepted. Often it takes a spectacular deed of courage to attract the attention of the Chaos Powers. If the candidate is accepted he receives a '''[[Marks of Chaos|Mark of Chaos]]''' from his Chaos Patron. This is the Patron's own mark, and each mark confers some ability or characteristic.<sup>1</sup>
Once a Champion receives the mark he begins to attract followers from the lesser servants of Chaos. The Chaos Powers use their Champions to further their aims in the material universe. The Champion's life becomes an endless series of battles, raids and quests. As the Champion serves Chaos he becomes increasingly changed through mutations granted by the Patron. The road to power ends eventually either in the Champion being reduced to a mindless and formless [[Chaos Spawn]] or raised to Daemonhood as an immortal and powerful [[Daemon Prince]].<sup>1</sup>
