This article is about the Chaos warband; for the Short story by John French, see Son of Sek. |
The Sons of Sek were a Chaos warband, modeled on the Blood Pact, but loyal to Magister Anakwanar Sek. Like the Blood Pact, the Sons of Sek were organized and disciplined in a manner similar to the Imperial Guard, with additional refinements devised by Sek - for instance, the Sons of Sek incorporated an analogue to the Imperial Guard's commissariat, which the Blood Pact did not.[1] The Sons also made use of Rogue Psykers, known as the Lekt.[4]
Apart from being a highly effective fighting force, Sek created the Sons of Sek with the intent of eventually mounting a coup against the forces of Archon Urlock Gaur, giving Sek command of the Chaos forces in the Sabbat Worlds.[1] The Sons of Sek were primarily formed and trained on the Chaos-held world of Gereon, until the reconquest of that world by Imperial forces.[2]
Each member of the Sons of Sek bore a badge of Magister Anakwanar Sek's hands over their mouths. While the warbands' serfs wore a cloth version of the badge, the Sons themselves wore one made out of Human flesh. The Lekt meanwhile, had the image of Sek's hands burned directly onto their skin.[4]
