Gahaki Khan was a fearsome Khan of the White Scars' Burgediin Sarhvu, who took part in the Horus Heresy's Siege of Terra.[1a]

History

Near the end of the Siege, Gahaki and the White Scar Ainbataar Khan, were chosen to be the bodyguards of the Legion's honoured ally Ilya Ravallion. The two would then escort her to the Imperial Palace's Sanctum Imperialis alongside their Primarch Jaghatai Khan, who was rushed there after being mortally wounded as the White Scars reclaimed the Lion's Gate Spaceport. Once there, the Primarch was taken to a secretive location in an effort to save his life and afterwards, Ravallion asked to be taken to the Sanctum's Tower of Hegemon. This was the last war room for the Imperium's forces on Terra and Ravallion wished to join it so she could help in any way she could. But after arriving there, Ravallion told Gahaki and Ainbataar, that they no longer needed to safeguard her and she relieved them of their duties. They both protested this, but Ravallion stated the Hegemon was heavily defended and the two Khans would be better suited in helping the Imperial forces defending the Sanctum. The two reluctantly agreed and then did as Ravallion asked of them.[1b]
