Esca

Chaos Portal World Eaters

Esca was a Codicier of the World Eaters during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.^[1]

Like the few Librarians remaining within the Legion, Esca was not implanted with the Butcher's Nails due to their hindering of psychic ability, and thus kept much of his sanity. Shunned by his own Legion and badly scarred after the Battle of Isstvan III, Esca served in the command squad of Captain Kharn during the Heresy. During the Shadow Crusade Esca attempted to save his Primarch Angron as he was ascending to a Daemon Prince thanks to the sorcerer of Lorgar. However Angron instead murdered Esca, using him as a final sacrifice for his transformation.^[1]
