Kellenkir was a member of the Night Lords during the Horus Heresy. Kellenkir was born in a dangerous slum of Nostramo where for years under near-starvation he survived and protected his younger brother Kellendvar. Kellenkir and Kellendvar were inducted into the Night Lords and after the Thramas Crusade became part of a splinter fleet under Gendor Skraivok. Kellenkir was a skilled torturer in his legion, bringing even Ultramarines Captain Adallus to an agonizing death. Unlike his more disciplined and loyal brother, Kellenkir was reckless and sadistic, frequently acting insubordinate to Skraivok.[1a]

During the Battle of Sotha, Kellenkir was given a sword by Gendor Skraivok that unknown to him possessed the soul of a Daemon. Kellenkir was subsequently possessed and as he transformed into an abomination, Kellendvar killed his brother out of mercy. Kellenkir proved ungrateful, scolding Kellendvar as he lay dying that he had been robbed of great power.[1b]
