Xaphen

Chaos Portal Word Bearers

Xaphen was a Chaplain of the Word Bearers Serrated Sun 7th Company during the Great Crusade.^[1]

A close friend to Argel Tal, when Lorgar undertook his pilgrimage into the Eye of Terror, Xaphen became one of the original Possessed Chaos Space Marines of the Gal Vorbak. Xaphen worked for Lorgar's agenda thereafter, covertly engineering the rebellion on Olympia which caused Perturabo to pledge himself to Horus.^[1a] However when Lorgar ordered the Custodes force attached to his fleet massacred on Isstvan V, Xaphen was killed by Sythran during the fighting.^[1]
