'''Angron ''' is the [[Primarch]] of the [[World Eaters]]. He fell to [[Chaos]] during the [[Horus Heresy]], afterwards becoming a [[Daemon Prince]] of [[Khorne]].
==Pre-Heresy==
During the Scattering, '''Angron''' was thrown to a "civilized" human world called Desh’ea<sup>2</sup>, far from [[Terra]]. He plummeted into the icy mountains of that planet with an echoing crash, and not long after a slaver found him, and a scene of carnage.
Surrounding the wounded young [[Primarch]] were the corpses of numerous [[Xenos]]. Imperial scholars would later theorise that they were [[Eldar]] who had foreseen the great bloodshed that Angron would cause and had tried unsuccessfully to stop him.
The slaver clasped After being enslaved and nursed back, Angron in chains and was brought him to one of the great cities of the planet's capital<sup>1</sup> called Desh’ea. <sup>2</sup> There, he was forced into the techno-gladiatorial arenas, where he proved to be undefeatable and a fan-favorite. Several times he tried to lead his fellow gladiators in revolt, and each time failed.
Yet once, he succeeded and after butchering his way through the crowd he led his rag-tag army into the mountains of the planet, where he lived for several years. The civilized cities sent armies to destroy Angron, but they were all obliterated. Nonetheless, the issue was never in doubt. His forces had little to eat in the barren mountains, and were exhausted from the constant battling.
