Led by only a few remaining captains, the Legion struggled with its loyalty to their fallen Primarch and the cold reality of their defeat at the hands of the Emperor and His lackeys. Father and son faced each other, breathing spite into each other's snarling features. The First Primarch, mockingly called the Sacrificed King by the Neverborn (Daemons), had died in shame and failure. Drach'nyen faced the Emperor, having taken the form of the very man that had given it birth, a fur-wearing savage bearing jewelry made of bones and wielding a primitive spear. Ashur-Kai, the "White Seer," sorcerer and sage of the Thousand Sons. "Enough." Physically, Abaddon was a towering and truly imposing Space Marine, taller even than the vast majority of his fellow Astartes, with a crested top-knot atop his shaven head and the straight nose and wide-spaced eyes reminiscent of Horus' own visage as was common among the Sons of Horus Astartes, though not enough for Abaddon to truly be a doppelganger of the Primarch. My son. As the Vengeful Spirit rose higher into orbit, the first ships rose from the battered surface of Harmony. Few of the other Legion were permitted anywhere near the Sons' last bastion. "Ezekyle. For all he knew, his warband were the last survivors. ", "Horus was weak. £10.00... more info Sold Out [CM]AB14. This single act of evil was the original seed that would grow to become one of the most powerful entities of the Warp, for every life taken by human hand, every word of hatred spoken in the ears of the dying, every thought of killing another to willingly further one's own goals made the Daemon stronger. The Legionaries struck the enemy ship's hull. During the 12th Black Crusade early in the 41st Millennium, a conflict better known in Imperial records as the Gothic War, Abaddon unleashed upon the Imperium of the "Corpse Emperor" his newest superweapon, the Planet Killer. 1 Summary 2 Powers and Stats 3 Gallery 4 Others "I am the Arch-fiend, the Despoiler of Worlds, and by my hands shall the false Emperor fall." As the loyal First Captain of the Luna Wolves' 1st Company, Abaddon was proud, irascible and someone who could inspire men to "cry out for Abaddon's return" if he were to die, though Abaddon became inexplicably darker and quicker to anger as the Great Crusade reached its final stage in the early 31st Millennium.

After many hours, they finally were approached by a massive Legionary who wore weathered and colour-faded armour scavenged and cannibilised from warriors of all Nine Traitor Legions, with a long fall of ratty, snarled black hair stringing across his features, half hiding his face. He knew that many amongst the Nine Traitor Legions cried out to be part of a true Legion once more. When the warbands of the Black Legion gathered anew under the wrathful banner of Abaddon the Despoiler, the words of Horus were heard once more upon their lips — "let the galaxy burn!". Horus was mortally wounded after slaying the Nurgle-corrupted Temba upon the bridge of his downed starship on Davin's moon, which had been transformed by Nurgle's corruption into a reeking swamp infested with undead Plague Zombies, Temba's own former Imperial Army garrison. There was a savage honesty in the Nine Traitor Legions' warbands now. Bound together by loyalty and ambition, not nostalgia and desperation. There was only a cloned father and a prodigal son, surrounded by the dead and the wounded, so similar that only by their weapons and wounds could you tell them apart.

Abaddon narrowed his eyes and asked, "He?" Their kind no longer waged war, they raided and pillaged. https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Drach%27nyen?oldid=369304. While other Chaos Space Marine warlords were content to make pacts with individual Chaos Gods and daemons, eagerly giving up control for a sliver of power, Abaddon was different. With several hundred thousand Chaos Space Marines falling upon Cadia in his name, Abaddon spilt enough blood that the walls of reality thinned to the point of total collapse, giving birth to the Great Rift that cut the Imperium in half. Even the hardened skin of Daemons or armour sealed with the power of the Warp is little proof against its assault, as it drinks in the energy of the Immaterium like water, consuming all in its path utterly. For Abaddon's ambitions to bear any weight, he would have to give them victory. Through alliance, threats and promises, Abaddon was able to muster the largest force of Traitor Legions seen since the Horus Heresy and took the Imperium by surprise. Warriors of the newly renamed Black Legion. The assault party fought for an indeterminate amount of time before reaching a chamber large enough for the next stage of Abaddon's plan.
