*'''Sanguinius''' was slain by ''Horus'' after refusing to join him.
*'''Lion El'Jonson''' returned to his homeworld of ''Caliban'' only to discover that his friend and second-in command ''[[Luther]]'' and the [[Fallen|Dark Angel garrison]] had turned against him<sup>2</sup>. He led a strike force of his own loyal Dark Angels against the traitors. He disapeared amongst the inferno as the world was blasted apart by a [[Warp Storm]] and a bombardment from his ships in orbit. He sleeps deep within ''the Rock'', the biggest piece of Caliban and current homebase of the Dark Angels<sup>1,2</sup>. Only the Emperor and the ''Watchers of the Dark'' know of this secret.
*'''Jaghatai Khan''' disappeared as he was pursuing [[Dark Eldar]] into a webway portal after they had managed to raid Mundus Planus. Rumours abound that he fights there still, lost in the twisting paths of the [[Eldar webway]]. After nine thousand years it seems highly unlikely, but not impossible. It is also possible that he has been taken prisoner and is held in the Commoragh to this day.
*'''Leman Russ''' disappeared in the ''Eye of Terror''. The Space Wolves hold a legend that says Russ went on a quest to find a means to cure the Emperor. His last message reported that he was near-death, but that he would return for the ''Wolftime''.
*'''Rogal Dorn''' died fighting on a traitor cruiser alongside a company of his sons. He was one of the last Primarchs to die. Today, all that remains of him are the bones of his hands that is housed in the holiest shrine of the Imperial Fists chapter. Another theory states that he now commands the [[Adeptus Custodes]].
*'''Roboute Guilliman''' was struck down with an envenomed blade by his former brother ''Fulgrim''. His body is perfectly preserved in a [[Stasis field]] at the heart of the ''Temple of Correction''<sup>3</sup>. He is the only loyal primarch whose body has been found and the temple is the object of pilgrimages. There is a rumour that he is in fact still alive and that that his wounds are slowly healing, although this would be normally impossiblein a stasis field.
*'''Vulkan''' disappeared. The position of Chapter Master, filled by the Captain of the First Company, is considered to be a regency as the Salamanders believe that Vulkan will one day return and lead them on a great crusade against Chaos.
*'''Corax''' was wracked by guilt and shame. In order to rebuild quickly the strength of his legion from the destruction of ''Isstvan V'', Corax accelerated the growth of the gene-seed organs, producing more Space Marines but this process also deteriorated the Gene-seed, causing many to become hulking monsters. Riddled with guilt over what he had done, Corax administered euthanasia to all of them and then locked himself away within his sanctum, the ''Raven's Tower''. Exactly one year later he left his tower, haggard and gaunt, and took a small shuttle craftwith the words "Never more". It was last monitored setting a course for the Eye of Terror.
