Nigh Vash Delerax was a Lieutenant-Commander in the World Eaters Legion, during the Horus Heresy and took part in the Dropsite Massacre. However much to his displeasure, he was prevented by the Warmaster Horus from taking part in the battle on Isstvan V and instead commanded the Battle Barge Dedicated Wrath, during the void battle against the Loyalist's ships. After the Massacre was completed, Delerax was assigned to track down and destroy any Loyalist ships in the Isstvan System, that had survived the battle. Though he took delight in destroying any surviving loyalists' ships he encountered, Delerax was angered at having an Alpha Legion member aboard the Dedicated Wrath, who served as Horus' ambassador to ensure the Warmaster's orders were being followed. The only thing that kept Delerax's anger in check, was that his second-in-command, Captain Althix Kordassis, acted as a go between and minder for the Alpha Legion member, who claimed he was the Primarch Alpharius. His mood brighten greatly however, after he received a message that his Primarch Angron was hunting down Corax and the remnants of the Raven Guard on Isstvan V. After destroying a stricken Salamanders Strike Cruiser, Delerax immediately gave the order to race towards Isstvan V; as he was intent to take part in the direct combat that was earlier denied to him. Once they neared the world though, Delerax received a message stating the Warmaster wanted the Dedicated Wrath to join with the Traitor Legion ships in the area and destroy a Loyalist fleet that was discovered near Isstvan IV. Delerax refused the order at first, but when Horus' ambassador Alpharius contacted him and demanded the Lieutenant-Commander do as he was ordered, Delerax relented. However when the Dedicated Wrath suddenly detected another fleet above Isstvan V, Delerax realized they were intent on evacuating the surviving Raven Guard and ordered an immediate attack on this new Loyalist fleet.[1]

When Alpharius discovered that Delerax had disobeyed his orders once again, the Alpha Legion member contacted Delerax in order to enforce the Warmaster's rule. The Lieutenant-Commander would not be dissuaded this time though, as his Battle Barge was the only ship in the area that could stop the Loyalists from achieving their goal. This led Alpharius to confront Delerax on the Dedicated Wrath's bridge, just as it was preparing to fire upon the Loyalists. In the heated discussion that followed, Alpharius claimed that it was decided that Corax and the remnants of his Legion would be allowed to escape, as they still had a part to play in the Imperium's civil war. Delerax refused to believe Alpharius and ordered the Alpha Legion member to remove himself from the bridge or be killed. It was at that moment though, that Captain Kordassis placed a bolt pistol to Delerax's head. Incensed at this betrayal, the Lieutenant-Commander asked what Kordassis was doing and it was revealed that a member of the Alpha Legion, was wearing his now dead second-in-command's face. An enraged Delerax then attempted to grab the bolt pistol, but Kordassis' doppelganger pulled the trigger and killed the Lieutenant-Commander[1]. However after his death, another member of the Alpha Legion took Delerax's face and masqueraded as the Lieutenant-Commander for a number of years, until the Battle of Yarant. It was during that battle with the Raven Guard and Space Wolves, that Delerax's doppelganger met his end in an assassination strike by a Dark Fury squadron, led by Sergeant Ghelt.[2]
