"By this pen, I will grant Her message onto them." -Nemesis upon creating the sword

The swords daemonic traits being it can cut through any material along with it being indestructible as it is known to also put up defensive fields as the swords movements across the air sound like howls and screams as it moves fast and produces soporific musk that obstructs the senses of beings not deadicated to Slaanesh.

"This shield shall aid me in deflecting the ignorant strikes against my stride as I break their bleak souls." -Nemesis during the weapons creation

Ambition of Creed: Unlike the two weapons which were taken as trophies before being corrupted, this Chaos-infused armor is one of Nemesis's own creation. A blend of durable yet light materials, it's creation included both a copy of regal night and a heart of darkness blended together, a twilight of peaceful night and scornful nightmare. The armor having bonded with him fully.

Alicorn Amulet: A very potent artefact, the Alicorn Amulet blesses the wearer with great power at the expense of becoming corrupt the more the user activates it and can only be removed by it's bearer. Nemesis has taken this further by making the amulet attached to his very essence, meaning he and the artefact will be forever tied together, effectively making him immortal and it will obey only him for the rest of eternity.

History: Nemesis is a sorcerer lord of Chaos that has had quite an effect on numerous plains, what scattered information that can be found does show in addition to him being deadicated to both She Who Thirst and the Architect of Fate is that a few other titles and names are tied to him, which are Adam, Magnum, Anubis and Antonym.

Nemesis leads a great warband under the banner of both Chaos Gods, the Crucible of Dread, he has his own goals and ambitions like any other though has been seen fighting on either side to further his own ends.

Another thing known is that Nemesis has gone up against numerous and powerful foes, having fought against those with the titles 'Everchosen' and 'Despoiler' to a standstill.having clashed with other powerful groups of other plains under both order and disorder. What isn't really known is his plain of origin, the records of such a realm is basically lost.

"Take me to them to them... then I may render judgment."

Gifts of Chaos: Marks of Tzeentch and Slaanesh, Darksoul(the gift having qualities associated with both Chaos Gods), Dimensional Instability(gift having the qualities associated with both Chaos Gods), Warpsight, great Daemonic Speed and daemonic endurance.

"This is going to be my last transmission... entire force destroyed.... whoever this heretic is... if Nemesis was a man... I doubt he no longer even is... every telepath screamed.... every heart of pure faith was repeled upon seeing him... based on my efforts I believe he has already ascended to daemonhood... he tore through a force of Grey Knights without hesitation... I can hear him coming closer... launching this in a probe now... May the God-Emperor steel my soul..." last recording of an unknown Imperial Inquisitor of the Ordo Malleus

While it is unknown if Nemesis has become a Daemon Prince of Slaanesh and Tzeentch, he has been granted formidable powers seen with such beings.

Beguiling Aura(S), Master of Sorcery(T)

Gifts: Daemonic Aura, Daemonic Rune, Soul Shrive(S), Spectral Blade(T)

Flagship: Breath of Bliss(Slaanesh aligned vessel)
Class: Retribution-Class Battleship
Outfitted with daemonically possessed weapons, engines and shields, the vessel also harbors an eldar holo-field and a dark eldar shadowfield. All of these configurations make the Breath of Bliss a formidable foe to fight against, as it can move fast for a vessel of it's size, numerous protective counter measures and formidable armament is a huge leap from this once Rogue Trader vessel.

Other notable ships of the warband:
Tomentors Rapture(Overlord-Class, Slaanesh aligned)
Baleful Scry(Styx-Class, Tzeentch aligned)
Gaze of Oblivion(Acheron-Class, Tzeentch aligned)

Crucible of Dread bio

The Crucible of Dread is a powerful Chaos Warband under the leadership of Nemesis and dedicated to Slaanesh and Tzeentch, baring remnants of both the Emperor's Children and the Thousand Sons traitor legions in some measure. The exact formation isn't entirely known, but what is known is that the ranks hold many warriors, mortals and daemonic beings.

Combat Doctrine: The Crucible of Dread has a very flexible way of waging war, though the warband does prefer to employ rapid dominance tactics. The warbands sorcerers also greatly augment both the offense and defensive means alongside help in guiding the warbands movements and finding targets. Daemon engines are also heavily used by the Crucible of Dread, most notably the Defiler, Heldrake and Decimator, however most daemon engines are actually possessed tanks and aircraft with even some vessels of the void fleet full on daemonships.
