Quiz – Which of These New Slaaneshi Daemons Are You?

BRKragnos HeaderWhen the Hag Queen ascended to godhood in Broken Realms: Morathi, the resulting surge of power gave rise to an altogether separate entity made from Slaanesh’s pure essence. Dubbed the Newborn, this being fled the cave between realms and hid, growing and shifting until two massive daemons strode forth, each a dark reflection of the other.

Now, we know what you’re thinking, “That’s all very interesting, Warhammer Community, but how would I know which one I resemble without taking a simplified personality test full of leading questions?”, and we couldn’t agree more. That’s why we’ve concocted a few perfectly normal questions that will tell you, without a doubt, which aspect of the Dark Prince you’re most like.


Question 1: How Do You Like Your Sceptres?

A: Long, for striking down the works of mortals in melee combat

B: Short, for weaving chaotic magics that corrupt and coerce

No self-respecting daemon would be seen dead* without a glorious weapon bedecked in their master’s iconography, and the twin children of Slaanesh are no different. While the brutish and clumsy oafs of Khorne might prefer an axe or sword, the refinement and elegance of a staff or sceptre is a far better fit for daemons that appreciate the finer things in life.

Question 2: What is the Appropriate Number of Adornments for Your Back?

A: One, unfurled, to command respect from all who cower before me

B: Two, appearing as graceful wings to lift me above the world of lesser beings

Something of a trick question, as no amount of ornamentation is too much for a devotee of Slaanesh. But if you’re going to have a huge… wing? Fin? The jury’s out on that one… then you’ll want to make sure there’s plenty of space for your god’s iconography. 

Question 3: How Do You Wear Your Horns?

A: Raw and primal, like my desire to conquer the Mortal Realms

B: Refined and elegant, the better to sway new believers into the fold

Nothing says regal power like a good set of horns, especially when they’re framed atop a head as unsettlingly beautiful as any the Dark Prince can provide. Whether you’re bellowing commands to a Hedonite host or whispering arcane words of power across a battlefield, it pays to have the rest of the Sybarites know who’s boss.


So who are you? Find out using our handy results below.

 

Answered Mostly A: Dexcessa, the Talon of Slaanesh

Embodying the lethal, ferocious aspect of Slaanesh’s lust for battle, Dexcessa is a combatant of power and grace rarely seen even among the ranks of greater daemons. With wicked-sharp claws and the Scourge of Slaanesh in their grasp, the Talon of Slaanesh soars to ever-greater heights of blissful butchery from the moment the first drop of blood hits the floor.

Answered Mostly B: Synessa, the Voice of Slaanesh

The softly spoken word to their sibling’s keening war cry, Synessa derives far more pleasure from the manipulation of the mind than brute physical excess. While commanding eldritch magics is as easy as a snap of their fingers, the Voice of Slaanesh’s true power lies in the mesmerising strength of their words, which are heard across a raucous battlefield by all of the Dark Prince’s devotees.

Whichever of the twins you find yourself most drawn to, you’ll be glad to know that either can be built from the same kit, giving you the choice of a powerful melee fighter or consummate wizard. As you might expect from their heritage, both also make excellent generals for the varied Hedonites of Slaanesh forces you can create.

Just what plans do these powerful scions of Slaanesh have in store for the Mortal Realms? You’ll need to read Broken Realms: Kragnos to find out where they interweave with the Seraphon’s venerable Lord Kroak and a certain family of witch hunters.
