The Gal Vorbak (meaning The Blessed Sons in Colchison, also called The Unburdened[3]) were an elite formation of Possessed Chaos Space Marine warriors during the Horus Heresy. Originating from the Serrated Sun Chapter of the Word Bearers Legion, they were originally members which had journeyed with Ingethel the Ascended to newly settled Cadia and the Eye of Terror to discover the Primordial Truth, bringing the revelation back to their Primarch Lorgar. During their experiences in the Warp-tainted Eye, the members of the Serrated Sons became possessed by Daemons and most would eventually willingly submit to them in exchange for enhancing their already superhuman Astartes powers. The Gal Vorbak's first notable actions was fighting against loyalist forces in the Drop Site Massacre.[1a]
