Zhorisch is a Warsmith of the Iron Warriors. An ancient warrior of the Legion and native of Olympia, Zhorisch initially proved himself a capable leader during the Great Crusade while serving the Emperor. Fanatically loyal to Perturabo, he gleefully followed his Legion into bitterness and treachery in the Horus Heresy. He went on to serve with distinction in the Drop Site Massacre, the sieges of Yarant and Vanaheim, and the Iron Cage.[1]

Over the millennia since the Heresy, he rose to the rank of Warsmith and command over a powerful warband through guile and cunning. As Warsmith, he developed a well-known lust for hidden knowledge, leading many campaigns of terror against unsuspecting Imperial worlds in pursuit of both academic and technological secrets.[1]

He went on to assault the Obsidian Forge on the Forge World of Imbru, looking to loot its technological treasures. In the aftermath of the invasion, he found all that he was looking for and more, including an ancient xenos artifact known as the Javar Gate. Now, after centuries of experimentation, the Javar Gate has finally been activated, much to the delight of the Warsmith.[1]
