Chaos Contemptor Dreadnought
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Chaos Contemptor Dreadnought is the rarest and most powerful Chaos Dreadnought.[1]
It is the only variant to still be held in reverence by Chaos Space Marines and occupancy is usually reserved for powerful Chaos Lords.[1]
Due to efforts to keep these war machines functional, those interred do not risk falling into madness like the occupants of lesser patterns. However, only few well-versed machine-adepts and Warpsmiths understand the complex technology behind the Contemptor.[1]
Known Chaos Contemptor Dreadnoughts
- Dharkallon of the World Eaters[1b]
- Ramsehk the Ever-Living, War-Adept of the Thousand Sons[2]
- Salaghast of the Black Legion[1a]
