De' El' Metojoques (Day El Mehtoe Jock) is a daemon prince of unspeakable power and design. In his former life as a captain in the Death Guard legion he was renown for strategy and deployment tactics that saw the legion win countless battles on world after world as the Great Crusade commenced. He, of course, was ultimately tempted, and seduced by the Grand Father Nurgle to fight under the banner of Chaos. Through his unbending strategy and now bolstered by the dark powers of Chaos itself, Meto' (as he is often called by the followers that love him) cut swaths through system after system spreading plague and dissolution in his wake.
Since then, he's achieved Daemon Princedom and has found little to no resistance to his dominance in the Hothus system (where his daemon planet brazenly lies). He welcomes all comers, even those that would be his destroyer. Recently a dissolving Space Marine chapter took it upon themselves to attempt a daring resupply assault on the daemon world. Though risky and taking on crippling casualties the dying chapter actually succeeded in escaping the planet.
Impressed by the chapters success, however fleeting it might have actually been, Meto and what remained of the death guard legion he commanded pursued them into the void of space. Through tactical assaults meant to prolong a fight and increase pressure upon the chapter, Meto finally wore them down and returned back to the home world. No record remains of who the dying chapter was. Recently however, it seems that ranks of Meto's forces have begun to swell again. These new warriors, not yet blessed w/ the gift of plague, have been sighted in many of the most recent engagements the Daemon Lord has unleashed upon the Imperium. Clad in sickeningly pale power armor, warped by the continued exposure to Chaos itself, these new Marines have formed the vanguard of Meto's forces.
None can say the ultimate plan of De' El' Metojoques. But he, like many leaders of the legions of Chaos Marines spread throughout the universe, has been oddly silent in their most recent engagements as if waiting for something. Only time will tell. In the meantime Meto's hands of influence now begin to stretch far and wide. Those systems who unfortunately find themselves engulfed by his grip can only hope for a swift end.
