About Emperor's Children
Slaanesh's perfectionists: noise, excess, and lethal elegance.
Emperor's Children pursue perfection until it becomes obsession. Noise Marines, Tormentors, and daemon-touched elites define the modern range. The faction's secondary market is still settling after recent releases.
Combat Patrol and character kits move first. Watch edition matching carefully; new box art changes comps overnight.
Themes: Slaanesh · Noise Marines · Fulgrim
