![]() Fighting into the heart of Vashtorr’s operations, the Dark Angels found cultists had prepared for their arrival by sacrificing themselves to summon Khorne’s corrupted Primarch, the Demon lord Angron, who set about slaughtering those who tried to fight past him.Īs the tide of the battle on the ground and in space turned, the Dark Angels found themselves suddenly bolstered by reinforcements from another Space Marines chapter: the Blood Angels, lead by the ancient legendary warrior Commander Dante, one of the oldest Space Marines still in existence. Horrified by the fate of their homeworld, the Dark Angels and their allies invaded the ruins of Caliban-now renamed by Vashtorr as the Wyrmwood-in an attempt to break Vashtorr’s grip on his forces, only to find themselves also confronted by Abaddon’s fleet in orbit. Although the Dark Angels managed to rebuke the Chaos forces, they were so furious at the assault on their most sacred home that they promptly followed the retreating Vashtorr back to his base of operations, only to discover just where Vashtorr was keeping his gathered Key-fragments: the transformed shell of the Dark Angels’ destroyed homeworld, the planet Caliban thought eradicated 10,000 years prior in the wake of the Horus Heresy-the infamous civil war that tore the Space Marine legions apart into pro-Chaos and Emperor-loyalist chapters. Working with Abaddon to launch a raid on the infamously impenetrable warship, Vashtorr’s siege failed after a rival Chaos daemon, the demon-prince Be’lakor, disrupted his attack with one of his own. One such fragment was hidden in the Rock, the massive cathedral-flagship and base of operations for the Dark Angels chapter of the Space Marines. With his own forces to his command and legions of cultists, and seeking to fulfill a prophecy that would raise him to become the fifth major Chaos God, Vashtorr cut a deal with Abaddon to launch an assault on the worlds of the Imperium Nihilus, in search of fragments to a mysterious piece of ancient technology known only as the Key. “heroes”?Īrks of Omen has seen Games Workshop introduce a new threat to the world of Warhammer 40,000: Vashtorr the Arkifane, a new daemonic demigod aligned with the forces of Chaos, but not beholden to any of the four primary Chaos Gods that already existed: Khorne the Blood God, Nurgle the Lord of Decay, Tzeentch the Changer of Ways, and Slaanesh, the Prince of Excess. The answer, is of course, a little good, and a lot bad, for the future of Warhammer 40,000's. ![]() But the reason the Imperium and its Space Marine legions are blindsided by the re-emergence of the Tyrands of Hive Fleet Leviathan-to the point even Terra, humanity’s home world and the seat of power of the Imperium’s fascistic God-Emperor, is threatened by them-is that the current story of Warhammer 40,000, told across a series of source books collectively known as Arks of Omen, has been distracting them on pretty much the other side of the galaxy.Īhead of the release of the final book in the series this coming weekend, Arks of Omen: The Lion, Games Workshop detailed the broad strokes of how things come to a conclusion in the “Imperium Nihilus,” the section of humanity’s empire cut off from the main bulk by the aforementioned giant, evil wound in the fabric of spacetime. Like I said: things start bad, get worse.
