[ ] My People:
Conditions: Create a Slannesh aligned Warband.
We need to create a guardian, so something that protects.
Code:
5: My kin are in constant danger, due to the influx of xenophobic lunatics from the ashes of the Horus Heresy…. I beg you, my comrades, to create guardians to defend them. Do this, and I will throw all of my power and resources into our efforts.We need to create a guardian, so something that protects.
Formally, guerrilla warfare is also a defense...
However, the Death Guard seems more appropriate.
Iron Warriors were masters of Siege Warfare. Just because they know best for offensive kind and sieging others, doesn't change the fact, they perfectly servicable defenders.
Also, I already explained in another comment, why Night Lords would be good for this, they would terrorize and raid everyone who tries to harm the Chaos Aliens, and Night Lords twisted sense of justice and giving punishments for crimes, would fit perfectly.
I want them more to be friendly with the aliens rather than being terror troops.
Those aren't mutually exclusive. Beside, we are talking here about Chaos Marines protecting civilization of Chaos Worshippers. Being "nice" is very relative here and personally, I see Night Lords to be both more fitting and interesting than World Eaters for this request, If we aren't going for Iron Warriors.
How bad is the point!

"The best defense is a good offense"
Best argument why we should go for World Eaters

Imagine Slaaneshi Death Guard bombarding an enemy with "concentrated aphrosidiacs" that cause enemies to die from "overpleasure"
Do we get any traits for this warband or no, @undead frog ? Just for the first part of this warband creation?

Votes over. The plan you voted for won though.
More or less what I was thinking, an ironic punishment for the xenos haters.
I hadn't even considered the night lords but this is quite a convincing argument. Bonus points if they launch rescue missions for chaos xenos as well.

4th Warband Part 1

Current Traits
-Sessetium Auxiliaries: A humanoid lizardlike species known as the Sessetium have provided auxiliaries to this Warband's forces. Armed with their Venom Guns, Power Blades, and the occasional Vortex Rocket Launcher, these alien warriors can prove a powerful ally.
-Sessetium Fleet Support: The Warband's fleet can call upon the support of the fleet of the Xeno species known as the Sessetium. These ships are able to dive deep into the warp without much issue, and possess powerful long ranged energy weapons.
Of course, as thanks for the aid in… well, staying alive, the Sessetium have decided to throw one other means of support behind this Warband - one integrated more directly into their new defenders.
Choose 1
[ ] Expert Medics: The Sessetium have deployed their skilled medical personnel to aid the Warband, effectively giving them the same benefits that loyalist Apothecaries would normally grant.
[ ] Psychic Support: The Sessetium have deployed some of their own psykers to aid the Warband in its efforts.
Expendables

Choose 1
[ ] World Eaters (Choose whether or not to include Butcher's Nails): Children of Khorne's Red Angel, when implanted with the Butcher's Nails the World Eaters are a Legion unparalleled in melee battle, but so blood crazed that they tend to be, for a lack of a better descriptor, rather idiotic. Without those cybernetic implants, the World Eaters are noticeably weaker, but they remain potent in melee and seem to form strong bonds with each other. It is they who have been claimed as the foremost servants of the Blood God, though Khorne may be willing to allow the genetic basis of His soldiers to be used elsewhere.
[ ] Death Guard: The Sons of Mortarion, the Death Guard is a Legion renowned for its durability and resistance to toxins. Once the hazardous environment specialists of the hated Imperium, they now have been adopted by Grandfather Nurgle, their durability raised to unimaginable extremes by His blessings - but Nurgle is a generous God, and will not hold using them for other purposes against you.
[ ] Iron Warriors: The Sons of Perturabo, the Iron Warriors are greatly intelligent, unimaginably spiteful, and excel at recovering from significant casualties in a short amount of time. They are masters of siege warfare, and though they do not serve any of the Gods in particular, seeing the Ruinous Powers merely as a source of unholy might, they refine the art of combining technology and the dark arts to a level few can hope to rival.
[ ] Thousand Sons: A Legion descended from Magnus the Red, and like him, are especially gifted in the ways of sorcery. It is also here that one of your… 'parents', as it were, was spawned from. Sadly, in exchange for their sorcerous gifts this Legion appears to be cursed with mutation rates that even your Dark Age cloning devices can't be guaranteed to stabilize - all the better in the eyes of Tzeentch, their master, though the Architect of Fate's infinite plans and schemes may well be served by allowing you to use his pawns separate from Him.
[ ] Emperor's Children: The Sons of Fulgrim's amusingly named Legion is noted for great competence in many fields, with no outstanding mutations. The biggest issue with this Legion is its tendency towards excessive pride and perfectionism, though this is merely natural for Slaanesh's chosen providers of ecstasy. Using the Dark Prince's vassals elsewhere is of no consequence, so long as the Lord of Pleasure can amuse itself with your works.
[ ] Black Legion: The apex of the Chaos Marines, the Sons of Horus the Warmaster, and the de-facto leaders of all traitor forces on those rare occasions the God's will is that they cooperate with one another. Any warband created from the Black Legion Gene-Seed is bound to possess great power… but also to attract a great many eyes. The Black Legion serves all the Ruinous Powers, disdaining devoting themselves to only one of the Dark Pantheon, but you doubt the Despoiler will care what you do either way.
[ ] Alpha Legion: A shockingly stable Gene-Seed, the Alpha Legion, offspring of the twin Primarchs Alpharius and Omegon, are known to be masters in the art of treachery. They do not serve any of the Gods, though the Changer of Ways adores their predilection for schemes and plots.
[ ] Night Lords: The drudges of the traitor Legions, the Gene-Seed of the Night Lords, Sons of Curze, mainly grants those with the 'privilege' to bear it an increased skill in terror tactics. And a noted tendency for psychotic conditions, but why would you care about that? The Night Lords do not devote themselves to any of the Great Four, only serving them in exchange for fresh victims to torture and terrorise, but some among them have founded the cult of the Raptor God, a minor God just as sadistic and murderous as His adherents.
[ ] Word Bearers: The true faithful of the Dark Gods, the Word Bearers are masters at gathering large amounts of followers to fight for them. Founders of the worship of Chaos Undivided as a unified faith, they will ever glorify the Ruinous Powers, and will gladly serve any of the Four.

Code:
5: Finally, my people have a chance at safety... My thanks, dear compatriots.
2: Ah...About that Sessenam, I have noticed something... odd, about you.
3: You seem strangely capable of doing something other than being a sensation driven lunatic, for a Slaanesh Worshipper. Frankly, the fact that you're actually capable of caring for your own species is a surprise in and of itself, for someone so steeped in the Dark Prince's power.
2: ... Not how I would've chosen to put it.
5: But you share the sentiment.
2 :.... Yes.
5: ...Fine. My species happen to have souls and body structures that make us effectively immune to the mental and physical detriments of Chaos. Moreover, while we can feed Daemons, our souls are deeply unpleasant for them to try and devour. We serve the Lord of Pleasure because our ancestors made a mistake out of desperation and sold Them our eternal service, not because we want to.
2: Why… would Slaanesh even want the service of beings they cannot devour?
5: A combination of raw sadism and the fact that our desire for freedom is a delicacy that Slaanesh gets to feed on only very rarely. Most under Their sway are too far gone to even want to be free of the Dark Prince by the time they provide meaningful amounts of emotion, let alone give Them any.
6: Oh… oh, such a tragedy! I can hardly stand to know my companion is suffering so deeply! If only Grandfather Nurgle had known such terrible things were happening to such kind and generous people at the time!
1: Yes……. Certainly….. Real tragedy, that.Current Traits
