He is the most powerful Psyker/Space Mage just below a god in the known galaxy, immortal nemesis to the Chaos Gods, leader of humanity at his prime. Could become the Dark King, the 5th Chaos God, if he so chose.

Mod: He is the fusion of many human souls merging into one being, the Emperor was born a human but through the souls and experience he grew to most powerful material entities besides the Star Gods, additionally, he shows many divine traits like wearing a ton of gold, looking like an angelic figure, and radiating light Wiki provided by submitters.

It's time I baptize my Order on the internet.

With great honor and pride, I present to you... THE ORDER OF THE EPIPHANY

This one is a smaller Order, daughter of the Order of the Sacred Rose, based in the precepts of compassion and calm righteousness of Saint Arabella.

This Order is baptized after the Epiphany of Sister Firelia, who was long ago a Space Marine, but sworn her life to the Sororitas creed, being reborn again as a Sister of Battle.

The higher ranks of the Space Marines were against her, accusing her of being a mutant of heretic by her "unholy demeanor", but she remained faithful, and after miraculously surviving as a Sister Repentia, she was accepted and embraced by the Sisters. The Emperor of Makind saw her, and Firelia understood that Him, with many faces and personas through history, was the only one capable of understanding her ordeal. (The whole novel is available in this same blog, if anyone want the full backstory).

Following her miracle, the Order of the Epiphany defends those who were discovered as Sisters later in life. Her numbers are not only of those who were "baptized" as women by birth (Even if they are the larger number, defending her Sisters), but also the "deviants" who became Sisters through their actions.

This Order glorifies the Epiphany, the moment of truth, the joy of being illuminated by it.

God-Emperor of Mankind (wiki)

Domains: Humans

Propaganda:

I am mostly putting him in because he spent literally millennia building up humanity as a cult of personality centered around worship of him while making a big deal about how he totally wasn't a god so i'm submitting him because it would annoy him

Tzeentch (wiki)

Domains: change, magic, ambition, creation, scheming, organization, trickery, plotting, destiny, hope, mutation and infinity.

Propaganda:

Tzeentch, the Great Conspirator, the Lord of Change, the Architect of Fate, the Changer of ways, the Master of Mutation, the Great Deciever, the Raven God, the Great Game's Greatest Player, is undisputably the most powerful of all four Chaos Gods and the one that will win the Universe. Its nature as a god of change makes it so so interesting to play around with narratively, and it's so all-encompassing in its volumes of work that it's impossible to avoid.

Imagine if the gw revealed the emperor actually caused the DAoT to end by accident in another hairbrained scheme to make humanity accend.

You'd still get all the sludge-brained people (the ones who get angry at The Master of Makind) claiming that E-money was still doing it out of the goodness of his heart and it all feeds into a master plan cos he's so big and godly but also he's just a well-intended normal guy so don't be mean to him :(
