Description

The Possessed:

This is the first of four pictures showing how a vicious daemon incarnates in the physical world. I wanted to tell you a little of a background story to these pictures to illustrate it a bit more.

I was inspired by some texts about daemons in the Warhammer 40000 and Warhammer Fantasy universe and by the amazing model of the Lord of Change. So all who know about these will certainly recognize some aspects although I didn't cling to every tiny detail. All the others don't have to worry, I'll tell you everything you need to know in the corresponding comments.

A big thanks to my good friend :iconk4rnan: who scanned the pic for me.

So here is the first part:

"When humans are desperate they turn to their gods, to their ethereal guardians or holy spirits. They beg for salvation, for being cured from an illness or simply for their survival. But there are souls among them that don't limit their demands to those honourable pleas but rather want to gain personal advantages. They request infinite wisdom, paramount skills or eternal beauty. But more than anything else they wish for power; the ability to rule over their people. Those calls are not heard by the noble spirits but they shall not fade away either.
The vicious creatures living in the chaotic dimensions of the warp are always waiting for the dark thoughts and requests of the humans. Subsisting on emotions of the mortals these entities search for ways to get into the physical world willing to devastate and kill everything they encounter.
Once the daemon found a suitable suer it will offer him to fulfill all of his dreams, to grant him every wish. Greedy and blinded as the human is he accepts this diabolic pact without asking about the trade-off. That is the moment when the daemon embeds its essence in the suer's body..."
