There's a lot to take in with these Chaos Gods, but I think I got a basic grasp on them. They are of Lovecraftian nature, underlying every emotion and desire of the real world, and these thoughts actually grew into physical beings that continue to feed on their own singular emotions. There are four major Gods: Khorne, the God of War and Battle; Tzeentch, God of Change; Nurgle, God of Death; and Slaanesh, God of Pleasure. These four Gods are extremists in their wants, and only seeking to maximize and stretch their emotional realms to their natural conclusions. For example, Tzeentch is constantly changing, plotting, planning, and to comprehend his goals is impossible and will only lead to madness. Ultimately, the Chaos Gods represent the problems humanity have been battling with since our inception, and like any good mythology, it's our way of putting a face to these grand concepts, as a reminder that these feelings will only grow and grow until the end of the universe.
