Gal Vorbak

Gal Vorbak (“Blessed Sons”) — an elite formation of the Possessed of the Word Bearers, among the first Possessed Astartes. They came from the Chapter of the Serrated Sun, which went with Ingethel into the Eye of Terror to learn the “Primordial Truth” and was possessed by daemons. Their first notable action was the Drop Site Massacre on Isstvan V, where all the original members perished against the Custodes, except Argel Tal (possessed by the daemon Raum).
