A [[Magister]] under [[Archon (Chaos)|Archon]] [[Nadzybar]], Sek quickly became notorious to the [[Imperial]] forces of the Crusade as possibly the most brilliant tactician and strategist among Nadzybar's lieutenantlieutenants, with the possible exception of [[Heritor Asphodel]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3a}}{{Fn|3b}}
When Archon [[Nadzybar]] fell on [[Balhaut]] in 765.[[M41]], bloody fights for overall command of the remaining Chaos forces began. Eventually, [[Urlock Gaur]] would win the upper hand, despite being neither a genius nor a charismatic leader. Gaur had what all other contenders did not: the [[Blood Pact]], a disciplined and experienced land army. Other contenders commanded nothing but bands of fanatical cultists.{{cite this}}
