Hellas Sycar battles Constantin Valdor aboard the Vengeful Spirit in the climax of the Siege of Terra[3a]

Hellas Sycar was a Captain of the Sons of Horus active during the Siege of Terra.[1]

Replacing Falkus Kibre as commander of the Justaerin after Kibre's apparent death, by the final stages of the Siege Sycar was one of the more rational Sons of Horus commanders and was still sceptical of the powers of Chaos. Thus when Abaddon gathered the remaining Sons of Horus to make for the Vengeful Spirit after its Void Shields were lowered, Sycar deferred to the First Captain's authority, unlike many.[1]

After arriving on the Vengeful Spirit alongside Abaddon, Sycar explored the reality-warped interior of the vessel alongside the First Captain. Eventually discovering the broken Kinor Argonis,[2a] Sycar and his compatriots eventually became embattled against maddened Word Bearer legionaries and Solar Auxilia. Though they performed well, it took the intervention of Erebus to stop them being overwhelmed.[2b] Led by Abaddon, Sycar took part in a Justaerin assault on the Custodes aboard the Vengeful Spirit under Constantin Valdor. Aided by the powers of the Warp via Erebus and six other Justaerin Terminators, Sycar was able to badly wound Valdor with his sword.[3a]

Sycar later accompanied Abaddon and other surviving Sons of Horus officers when they finally reached Lupercal's Court and found Garviel Loken alongside the body of Horus. Sycar moved to attack Loken but was ordered to stand down by Abaddon, and later left the Sol System aboard the Vengeful Spirit.[3b]
