The chaos God of fear as we call it do have one aspect simply fear or being afraid of something and that "something" is enough to put a God of chaos to being.

Fear is a subconscious feeling to a stimuli, being afraid of it, yes there are a mybrid of phobias to work around but the most prevelant cause of fear currently running rampant in the WH40k specifically in the imperium is the fear of the unknown. This fear of the alien and the unexplainable is in every human in the Galaxy, many citizens are living ignorance and the technological and scientifically arena of the imperium is backwarded replicating the dark age in human history.

Everyone is afraid of something and what we all fear the most even in the beggining of human history is the fear of what we do not know, what lies in the darkness, this forbidden knowledge of what's out there, superstition, paranoia, anxiety, horrific aliens we do not understand, the chaos gods many the imperial citizens don't know, and even what will tommorow bring in a Galaxy of perpetual war and misery. It's very fitting since the space marines are not just meant to be humanities finest army there the weapon to defeat the Galaxy of horrors and strife.

"They shall be the bulwark against the terror" and "They shall know no fear" it is fear that keeping humanity from reaching its full potential the potential to be a "space marine"

And with the servants of this particular aspect of chaos (It is what they bring and what they are)
