The Priest-King of Maulland Sen was a Warlord of Terra during the Unification Wars in thrall to the Chaos Gods.[1]

Biography

The Priest-King began as a holy man in the northern wastes of Nordyc, offering food and water to those in need. During this time he first met the Emperor of Mankind, who warned him against what he was doing. The Priest-King claimed his god had called him to live in kindness, and ignored the Emperor. The Chaos Gods, attracted to his prayers, began to answer them, fuelling an increase in his following until it numbered many thousands. Each miracle performed by the Priest-King became more costly, each ritual more occult.[1]

By the time the Emperor brought the Maulland Sen Confederacy to battle at Maulland Sen, little trace remained of the Priest-King's humble origins. Although he did not realise he was serving warp-entities, everything he did was fuelling them regardless of what he believed. Dabbling in cloning and witchcraft, he was followed by a horde of thousands of gene-abominations and witch-marked men. In the aftermath of the battle, the Priest-King decried the Emperor as an apostate and heretic before he was executed by the Emperor Himself.[1]
