From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

Lord Acherus was a Chaos Knight of House Lucaris, who piloted a Knight Tyrant[1] and was among its forces[2a] that took part in the War of Beasts on Vigilus.[2b]

He and the Knight Despoiler Zar Obedon[2a], later led their Knights to support a Black Legion strike force sent to claim the world's Stygian Spires from the Imperium[2b]. This led the strike force to fight against the Delverghouls of the Cult of the Four-Armed Emperor, as well as the Death Guard and Raven Guard[2c]. In the massive battle that followed, Acherus' mind was struck by the psychic powers of the Raven Guard Vanguard Librarian Moradus. This allowed the rest of the Raven Guard to destroy his Hive Tyrant[2d] and most of House Lucaris' Knights would soon die as well. Ultimately, though, the Delverghouls claimed the Spires.[2e]
