* '''WebOriginal/{{Brighthammer 40000}}''': In this setting, [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} the traitor Primarchs]], led by Horus Lupercal, all committed ritual suicide during the Great Crusade during an event called the "Horus Ascendancy", which allowed them to become Princes of Order and counter the Lords of Order's influence, after the four gods got bloated from the souls who died and were corrupted into becoming tyrants. As a result, they're fondly remembered by the Imperium of Mankind and worshiped as the Emperor's Demigods.
