When the Soul Drinkers mounted an attack on the Mechanicus's [[Geryon Ordinatus]] platform, Tellos was seriously wounded after both hands were wrenched off at the wrist by an [[Electro-priest]]. His life was saved by [[Apothecary]] [[Pallas (Soul Drinkers)|Pallas]], who dragged him to safety.{{Fn|1c}} The damage to Tellos's arms was so extensive that it proved impossible to craft [[Imperial bionics|augmetic]] replacements for him, effectively ending his career and causing Tellos to go insane. Whilst recovering on the Soul Drinkers [[Strike Cruiser]] ''[[Gundog]]'', Tellos escaped from the ship's [[Apothecarion]] on multiple occasions, attempting to prove that he could still fight by jamming metal blades into the ends of his amputated stubs and using them to destroy [[Combat Servitor]]s that he unleashed and hunted throughout the vessel.{{Fn|1d}}
Tellos would end up following Sarpedon after he went [[Renegade Chapter|renegade]] and seized [[Chapter Master|control]] of the [[Soul Drinkers]]. In the process, Tellos was "blessed" with some of the most obvious [[Mutant|mutations]] in the chapter, second only to the likes of Sarpedon. Refusing to accept any other fate, he wanted to fight on; he had [[Chainsword|chainblades]] grafted into the end of each of his arms whilst his accelerated healing mutation held them in place. His second mutation was He also possessed secondary mutations, including a gross amount of muscularity and semi-translucent skin.{{Fn|1}} As a result of his altered biology, his life-signs were difficult to detect on an [[auspex]].{{Fn|1d}}
During the time Sarpedon was looking for a cure to halt their mutations, Tellos disobeyed Sarpedon on numerous occasions. When the cure was finally located, the Soul Drinkers were forced to abandon Tellos and forty assault marines behind on [[Stratix Luminae]]. They were last seen taking on tens of thousands of mutants and undead creatures from [[Teturact|Teturact's]] heretical army.{{Fn|2}}
