| - A Daemon Weapon is, as the name suggests, a weapon into which a daemon has been bound by dark and forbidden rituals. Rules for daemon weapons are given in Disciples of the Dark Gods; this page is currently undergoing revision so as to supplement (rather than conflict with) those rules.
- Followers and Daemons of Chaos can use two types of magical weaponry: Chaos Weapons and Daemon Weapons. Chaos Weapons have relatively limited magical powers which are part of the blade of the weapon. These are determined randomly for each blade. While a weapon generated using the system presented here can be quite powerful, for the most part it modifies the abilities and skills of its bearer. A Daemon Weapon, on the other hand, has abilities and powers of its own, based on the Daemon that is bound within the blade.

| - Followers and Daemons of Chaos can use two types of magical weaponry: Chaos Weapons and Daemon Weapons. Chaos Weapons have relatively limited magical powers which are part of the blade of the weapon. These are determined randomly for each blade. While a weapon generated using the system presented here can be quite powerful, for the most part it modifies the abilities and skills of its bearer. A Daemon Weapon, on the other hand, has abilities and powers of its own, based on the Daemon that is bound within the blade. Daemon Weapons are the most terrible of all the arcane devices used by the followers and Daemons of Chaos. Each rune-carved blade is a servant of the Dark Powers in its own right. Bound within the metal of the blade, and imprisoned there for an eternity, is the spirit of a Daemon. Each blade, driven on by its Daemonic occupant, serves only the interest of its Chaos god. A Daemon Weapon reaps souls for the glory of its master. Daemon Weapons are forged at the very heart of the Chaos Wastes, where the Chaos Void and the Wastes (which are still part of the 'real' world) wash against each other. Here, in the heatless fire of the Void, the blades are smelted, forged on the soul-anvil of a still living servant of Chaos, tempered in the screams of the doomed, and quenched in innocence. Once the blade has been inscribed with dread runes, the (sometimes willing) spirit of a Daemon is bound within the blade, giving it a life of its own. The weapon is then carried forth into the Chaos Wastes and presented to its wielder, a symbol of immortal approval and power. Such weapons are granted to only the most powerful of a Chaos god's servants: Greater Daemons, Daemon Princes (Champions who have achieved Daemonhood), and still-mortal Champions Of Chaos. Possession of a Daemon Weapon is, of course, enough to grant any creature wielding it considerable power. Throughout this section, the terms blade and weapon are used to designate Daemon Weapons. Daemon Weapons have special properties regardless of their physical shape.
