Karazantor the Vile, the Traitor of Xian .[1]

Do not ask which creature screams in the night. Do not question who waits for you in the shadow. It is my cry that wakes you in the night, and my body that crouches in the shadow. I am Tzeentch and you are the puppet that dances to my tune."[1]

Karazantor the Vile, also known as The Traitor of Xian, is a follower of Tzeentch.[1]

Trivia

The image in Codex Imperialis (Background Book) may or may not actually be Karazantor the Vile. It may actually be a generic Tzeentch Chaos Champion on a Disc of Tzeentch.

A miniature resembling the image associated with the quote from Karazantor in Codex Imperialis (Background Book) was released by Citadel in 1991 and appears in the 1991 Citadel Miniatures Catalog. It is shown under the heading Chaos Renegades with the sub-heading Tzeentch on page 107 and is named 3 Arms. The miniature also appears on page 261 under the Flying Discs section, alongside the photo from Codex Imperialis (Background Book).

Karazantor may possibly be associated with Chicano but this is speculation of course. Karazantor is known as The Traitor of Xian which may or may not be a reference to Lord Xian Torus who was the ruler of Chicano before followers of Tzeentch left it a ruined world.[2]
