Saqqara Ur-Damak Thresh is a Diabolist of the Word Bearers.[1a]
Saqqara was originally a member of the Black Comet Chapter during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. He fought in the Battle of Calth and Underground War, being one of the Word Bearers who actually managed to retreat from these battles. Saqqara considered the near-suicidal deployment of Word Bearers on Calth as a "test" by his Primarch Lorgar.[2]
After the Horus Heresy, Saqqara was sent by the Dark Council to claim the head of Fabius Bile after a dispute between his Consortium and the Word Bearers. However, Saqqara's expedition was defeated and the Diabolist was captured by Bile. Bile forced Saqqara to work for him by planting a bomb in his chest, and he became essentially a slave to the Apothecary's will.[1a] He accompanied Bile and Oleander Koh during The Shattering in M34 and again to Solemnace during the attempt to rescue the lost Gene-Seed tithe of the Emperor's Children.[1b]
