Kar-Gatharr is a Word Bearers Dark Apostle and a minion of Kor Phaeron. He was among the Word Bearers' forces, that took part in the Battle of Gathalamor.[1]

Dispatched by Kor Phaeron himself to Gathalamor, Kar-Gatharr nominally worked under the authority of Black Legion Sorcerer Lord Tenebrus. Once the powerful ring of Cardinal Bucharis was discovered, Gatharr and the Dark Mechanicum oversaw the construction of a cannon of bone which when combined with the ring emitted waves of angry spirits.[1a] Kar-Gatharr however sought the ring for his master Kor Phaeron, and instructed his Cultist leader Tharador Yheng to steal the ring from Tenebrus should he attempt to flee Gathalamor. During the climax of the battle on Gathalamor, Kar-Gatharr infused himself with the powers of the Warp to become a hulking monstrosity, slaying the Custodes Shield-Captain Achallor in combat. However his new form could not counter the power of faith, and the Dark Apostle was eventually struck down by Canoness Imelda Veritas and her Sisters of Battle.[1b] Despite Yheng's best efforts, Tenebrus was able to leave Gathalamor with the ring in hand.[1b][1c]
