There are very few things in terms of 40k that I've seen more people confused about than the Warp. It seems like many people either pretend to be "experts" on it without actually knowing what they're talking about as they proceed to spread false information that isn't actually sourced from anywhere, while others believe the whole thing is too confusing to properly analyze. My hope for this blog is that with its creation, it will help at least a few others better understand the nature of the Immaterium, showing that while it is complicated, it's far from impossible to analyze and is in many cases shockingly consistent in its portrayal. I will cover the nature of the Warp itself, as well as some of the most important beings who inhabit its infinite expanse. Everything will be supported by quotes from the lore, and said quotes will come from an omniscient narrator or a character who is extremely reliable. This will help eliminate nonsense that is spread in-universe by characters who have literally no idea how the Warp works, such as foolish Imperials who think Chaos can be "killed" by cutting it off from the galaxy, or biased cultists who treat the Chaos Gods as a truly omnipotent force.
Expect more to be added to this blog, as I wish to make everything as clear as possible.
Without further ado, let's begin.

The Immaterium and the Nature of Unreality
Before understanding its inhabitants, one must first understand what exactly the Warp is. This can be difficult for some people, as the Warp is nothing like our universe, or any universe we would normally think of.
●The Immaterium lies beyond the restrictions of physical space, time, and causality. Such concepts have no meaning there:

●This is because the Warp is nothing like any sort of physical reality. It is impossible abstract ideas made real only through metaphor. It is essentially "unreality", its very nature the anathema to what we'd think of as the real world.
