The Poisoned Chalice are a Death Guard Warband.[1]
Contents
Overview
Led by deranged groups of Chaos Space Marines, the Poisoned Chalice zealously rampages across the galaxy in their quest to brew the perfect plague. This has led them to obsessively seek vile ingredients and hapless test subjects in order to complete their goal.[1]
History
The Poisoned Chalice took part in the Charadon Campaign and were among the Chaos forces that invaded the Metalica System. There, they attacked Ohmex Magnifica and secretly infiltrated a Corpse-Starch processing centre. The Warband was eager to corrupt it with Nurgle's gifts, but they were attacked by a Corpse Grinder Cult that worked there. These blood crazed Cultists worshiped the Lord of Bone and Tendon and viciously fought to destroy the Poisoned Chalice. Their battle, however, drew the attention of the Imperium's forces defending Ohmex Magnifica, which attacked them. As they were already weakened from fighting each other, the Poisoned Chalice and the Corpse Grinder Cult were soon destroyed by the Imperium.[2]
