Warhammer 40K: Every Faction Ranked From Least To Most Evil

1. The Drukhari

Finally we come to what is not only the most evil race in 40K, but one of the most evil races in all of fiction.

Unlike their Craftworld’s Aeldari cousins, those who would become the Drukhari saw no need to curb the debauchery and excess that dominated their society. Had it not been for the fact that they were partially separated from real space, the Drukhari would have been destroyed along with the other Eldar.

And the 40K universe wishes they had been.

Slaanesh has a tenuous hold on them, slowly consuming their souls by draining their life energy. The response was completely in character: rather than adopt the asceticism of their Craftwordls cousins, the Drukhari found that they could counteract the drain by constantly topping up their leaking vessels – by turning their hedonism up to eleven and feeding off of the psychic energy released by the agony of others.

The Drukhari have turned torture into a horrifically perfected art. They glory in the tiniest sliver of torment, and will extract every last drop until the victim is reduced to a moaning, senseless wreck, at which point the still-living sack of flesh is transformed into a ghastly trophy.

When you’re entire existence revolves around inflicting as much pain as possible, all while literally out-debauching the god of debauchery, then you know you are beyond redemption.
