“

The ancient knights’ quest for the grail, the alchemist’s search for the Stone of the Philosophers, all were part of the Great Work and are therefore endless. Success only opens up new avenues of brilliant possibility. Such a task is eternal and its joys without bounds; for the whole universe, and all its wonders… what is it but the infinite playground of the Crowned and Conquering Child, of the insatiable, the innocent, the ever-rejoicing heirs of the galaxy and eternity, whose name is Mankind?

„

“	The greatest tragedies and triumphs of Man are reflected in the Great Ocean, forming raging storms. Yet, unlike our own realm, these reflections are not bound by our limited appreciation of causality, for often times the unwary aethereal traveller may be caught in storms formed by malign events that they have yet to experience, and in their struggling they find themselves in exorably drawn to fate.	„
	~ Exerpt from the Book of Magnus

“	Do you remember what you said to me, brother? Do you remember what you said to me as we fought before the Pyramid of Photep? Do you remember the words you used? I do. As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now.	„
	~ Magnus to a statue of his brother Leman Russ.

Summary

Magnus the Red, the Primarch of the Thousand Sons Traitor Legion, is one of the few surviving Primarchs and is currently an extremely powerful Daemon Prince of the Chaos God Tzeentch. He was also known during the early years of the Imperium as the Crimson King and the Red Cyclops.

A giant in both physical and mental terms whilst still an inhabitant of the Materium, the copper-skinned Magnus possessed tremendous innate psychic ability, and constantly sought to understand the nature of the Warp, becoming a Sorcerer of formidable power. Magnus thought he would be able to control the Great Ocean of psychic energy that was the Warp; however, his prodigious and careless application of his psychic gifts eventually caused him to fall out of favour with his father, the Emperor of Mankind, as well as with the majority of his brother Primarchs. His psychic immaturity, recklessness, and arrogance also caused his own undoing, as it eventually brought about his own damnation and servitude to the Dark God of Change Tzeentch.

In the end, Magnus lead his XVth Legion to the banner of Horus and fought on the Arch-Heretic's side during the Great Betrayal of the Horus Heresy. He survived those events and ascended to the position of a Daemon Prince of Tzeentch as a reward for his service to the Changer of Ways. He has spent the majority of the ten millennia since the end of the Horus Heresy ensconced atop his tower upon the Planet of the Sorcerers within the Eye of Terror, planning the ultimate destruction of the Imperium he believes betrayed him and his Legion. Magnus' greatest grudge, however, is with the Space Marines of the Space Wolves, who he holds accountable for the destruction of his homeworld of Prospero and the corruption of his Legion during the early days of the Horus Heresy.

Magnus especially is incredibly gifted in this regard, being among the most powerful psychic individuals to ever exist, thus he should scale far above the Cacodominus who enslaved the minds of thirteen hundred systems and basic psykers who can tear souls from bodies), Aura (Primarchs are said to contain an overwhelming aura that completely baffles regular humans, as well as sometimes Astartes. Their presence in the Warp is so powerful and influencing that Magnus reduced several Remembrancers to tears over his seeming divinity, while Russ could make Ahzek Ahriman himself kneel before him with his sheer presence), Avatar Creation (Created an avatar of himself to commune with Lorgar), Invisibility (Can become invisible if he wants to), Size Manipulation (His size is constantly shifting, and he can grow to the size of a Titan if he wants to), Perception Manipulation and Illusion Creation (Magnus' presence is constantly shifting, and no one knows his true form.

Through sheer anger alone, Magnus melted obsidian in his hands), Plasma Manipulation (Via his Plasma Gun), Madness Manipulation (Type 3; Upon descending to battle during the Burning of Prospero, Magnus sheer power tore open holes in reality, weakening the barriers between the Materium and the Immaterium, and exposing all present to horrifying vistas that made all go mad), Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1; Likely comparable to the Emperor, though to a lesser degree. Through his movement in the Warp alone, Magnus created entire concepts and philosophies)

Resistance to Psychic Powers, Sealing, Matter Manipulation, Void Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, and Dimensional Manipulation (Due to being an immensely powerful and skilled psyker, among the top three of the entire human race and potentially the whole galaxy, Magnus should be resistant to the abilities of nearly every lesser psyker than himself, along with the abilities of his brother Primarchs and likely those of the Emperor, as even basic psykers can resist the abilities of other psykers. Should also naturally have the same resistances as the Adeptus Astartes and can even resist the abilities of blanks as he was still capable of casting spells and utilizing his psychic abilities despite the presence of the Sisters of Silence, though they were still nullified when they got too close to them), Radiation Manipulation (Should almost be entirely immune to the effects of radiation exposure, thanks both to his Power Armor and enhanced physiology), Poison Manipulation (Astartes are practically immune to all diseases and poisons, and their Primarchs should logically be even tougher)

Whether or not they come back is entirely dependent on if their God allows them to), Self-Sustenance (Type 1, 2 and 3; Being a daemon, Magnus has no mortal requirements), Resurrection, Regeneration (Low-Godly overtime; Upon physical death or banishment, Daemons will simply regenerate in the Warp as long as the ideas and metaphors that they rely on have not been affected), Flight, Law Manipulation (Daemon Princes in the Eye of Terror can manipulate their worlds and the laws within however they see fit), Possession and Dream Manipulation (Even Lesser Daemons can reach beyond the veil and possess mortals, even entering their dreams to do so), Dimensional Travel (Capable of travelling from the Warp into the Materium), Corruption and Transmutation (Capable of performing spells that can corrupt and mutate individuals into mindless beasts or just alter their flesh in horrific ways), Damage Reduction (Ranged weaponry is incredibly ineffective when used against a daemon, requiring more traditional weapons to fully banish them), Madness Manipulation (Type 3) and Corruption (Types 1 and 2; Looking upon a daemon can cause insanity and corrupt the mind, body, and soul of an individual), Enhanced Soul Manipulation (Daemons can feed upon the souls of mortals)

For one to effect the Warp, it must be dealt with in terms of absolute actions), Beyond-Dimensional Existence (Type 2; The Warp has no true Geography and is fundamentally structureless), Nonexistent Physiology (Type 2 Nature, All Aspects; Daemons, like their gods, are 'Aethyric entities', the Aethyr at its core. has no definite existing physical reality of its own, Aethyr is the substance of the Void which transcends existence 'The Is' and non existence 'The Un'), Abstract Existence (Type 1; The Abstract state of Chaos exists as a vortex of energy that represents their related concepts)

Standard Equipment:

• Loyalist
• Daemon Prince

• Horned Raiment: A suit of armor that was worn by the Thousand Sons Primarch Magnus and was believed to be as much a thing of tangible psychic force and Empyreal energy as it was a physical construction. The armor could shift its form and appearance as Magnus willed it and, despite it's often primitive appearance, the Horned Raiment protected the Primarch against the most savage of weapons
• Blade of Ahn-Nunurta: A Khopesh-shaped force sword, which was created in the same distinctive shape as the weapon the Prosperine war god of ancient myth carried. Ancient lore combined with Imperium weapons technology made the Blade of Ahn-Nunurta equally lethal to living creatures and battle engines alike
