Chaos Lord - M: NameOriginSummaryMadoxThousand SonsMadox was a notable Chaos Sorcerer of the Thousand Sons who led several plots to destroy his Legion's ancient foes, the Space Wolves Chapter. He reserved a special hatred for the Wolf Lord Ragnar Blackmane, who has foiled several plots when they confronted one another across several decades of the late 41st Millennium. It is presumed that he was finally killed on the world of Charys, where Madox hoped to enact a Chaotic ritual to fully corrupt the gene-seed of the Space Wolves and set them on the path of damnation. The ritual used to enact the Chaos Sorcerer's blasphemous ritual was interrupted by the timely intervention of Ragnar Blackmane and his fellow Space Wolves. Many decades later, while suppressing a Chaos rebellion on an unnamed world, Ragnar Blackmane heard rumours that the sorcerer Madox was still alive and leading the forces of Chaos. Though unsure if the rumours were true, it could be likely that Madox had indeed been resurrected through malefic means, as he has done so in the past by using the body of a Chaos Cultist. If this is indeed true, then Madox may truly never die, and eventually he could once again return to the material realm.Dynat MalAlpha LegionFollowing the tragic events of the Horus Heresy, during the unending bloodshed of the Great Scouring, the Traitor Chaos Warlord Dynat Mal, known as "Crowbane" for his ambush and slaughter of Raven Guard forces during the Battle of Lyx, flees to the Mandragoran Stars and gathers to him a coterie of Renegades, diabolists and Traitors thousands strong. Imperial forces sent in pursuit are repeatedly out-manoeuvred and cut apart piecemeal as Dynat's forces, now known as "The Shadowed Ones", employ guerrilla tactics and dark forces to extend their mastery over the region. After the vital Imperial outpost station at the world of Amarah in what is now the Orpheus Sector of the Segmentum Tempestus is attacked and destroyed, its entire population slaughtered and stockpiles plundered, any Imperial claim to the region is effectively severed. This sundered realm, caught beyond the light of the Imperium at the edges of the Veiled Region, becomes known as the Dark Marches and is benighted by ignorance and discord, and is shrouded from human sight. In 170.M32, the Raven Guard returned to the Dark Marches in force to exact their vengeance on Dynat Mal, but found his domain to be devoid of life and his Cruiser Occam's Razor in ruins on the Jungle World of Apollyon. The burnt hulk is stood over a valley filled with the shattered bones and armor of thousands of Alpha Legionaries. Just what befell the Shadowed Ones is unknown.Von MallasUnknownVon Mallax, also known as The False Saint and The Transgressor, was a Chaos Lord who led his own Black Crusade in 113.M38 across the Segmentum Pacificus and the Segmentum Tempestus.MalfeciusUnknownMalfecius was an obscenely powerful Chaos Lord whom the Officio Assassinorum had failed to destroy with operatives from the Eversor and Vindicare temples. So instead, in 290.M41, they sent the Culexus Assassin Vaedrex to accomplish the deed. The Culexus haunted the steps of Malfecius across the Eye of Terror. Only when Malfecius ascended to Daemon Princehood does Vaedrex finally strike. With Malfecius'’ latest incarnation rendering him vulnerable to Vaedrex' Psyk-Out Grenades, the Culexus finally manages to kill the reeling Daemon Prince with a punishing series of blasts from his Animus Speculum.MardukWord BearersMarduk is one of the more formidable Dark Apostles of the Word Bearers Traitor Legion. He is a former First Acolyte of the Dark Apostle Jarulek, becoming a Dark Apostle and the master of the 34th Host in his own right in the late 41st Millennium after his former master was slain by a newly awakened Necron Lord on the world of Tanakreg. Marduk helped to lead the Word Bearers' massive Dark Crusade to seize control of the strategic Boros Gate System from the Imperium of Man, which the Word Bearers' believed would herald the End Times and the final victory of Chaos in the galaxy.MordeghaiThousand SonsHigh Magister Mordeghai, a gifted Chaos Sorcerer, was a Tribune Senioris to Magnus the Red at the Siege of the Imperial Palace during the epic Battle of Terra. Sometime during the 41st Millennium, Mordeghai had foreseen that if his Death Guard arch-rival Festardius gained control of the world of Makenna VII, the Plague Lord would use his new influence to turn Mortarion's legions against Mordeghai's cabal. The best way to prevent this from happening was to wrest control from Festardius once the Warmaster Davroth had departed. Mordeghai believed he had more than enough Thousand Sons Rubric Marines at his disposal to accomplish this.MothacWord BearersMothac is a powerful Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers Traitor Legion and a member of the Dark Council, the ruling body of the Legion. He is described as being encased in cursed Daemon armor, a personal gift from his Primarch Lorgar.
