The Cult of the Gorgon was a sect of Iron Fathers of the Iron Hands during the Horus Heresy. Driven insane by their experiences on Isstvan V and the continuing guerrilla war against the forces of Horus, several Iron Fathers formed the cult with the intent to bring Ferrus Manus back from the dead and usurp the power of Shadrak Meduson. However their reborn "Primarch" was in truth just a mechanical puppet with one of Ferrus' metallic arms attached. Upon this discovery Vulkan, accompanying Meduson's fleet at this time, shattered the false Primarch and the Cult of the Gorgon fell apart. Its members were spared execution by Meduson, but several later abandoned him during the Battle of the Aragna Chain.[1]
