Vheren Ashurhaddon, wielding the Axe Serpentis[1]

The Axe Serpentis was a Carsoran Power Axe, that was wielded by the Sons of Horus Captain Vheren Ashurhaddon, during the Horus Heresy.[1]

The axe was believed to have been crafted by Horus Lupercal for his personal armoury from the melted down weapons of Cthonia’s vanquished gang leaders. It was presented to Vheren Ashurhaddon by the Warmaster himself in recognition of the First Reaver’s valiant effort to hold the gates of the great Tower of Ullanor while Horus and the Justaerin fought their way up to the pinnacle of that great edifice.[2]
