Chaos Space Marine Apothecary
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Chaos Space Marine Apothecaries are medically trained Chaos Space Marines who aid the forces of Chaos.[1a]
However unlike their Loyalist counter-parts, Chaos Apothecaries are rare and not likely to serve one master. Instead they act as free agents who work with those who can afford their prices, though, they could also withhold their services from those they dislike. Warbands notably rely heavily upon Chaos Apothecaries to remain functioning as a fighting force, as they have the skills to patch up or create new Chaos Space Marines[1a]. In the Age of the Dark Imperium, however, there are now few Chaos Apothecaries left and even fewer old enough to know how to set up a proper Apothecarium.[1b]
