Horeth'na'xrik

Chaos Portal

Horeth'na'xrik the Accursed is a Daemon, who is considered a noble amongst his kind.^[1]

History

He is bound within a Daemon Sword, that is currently possessed by the Daemon Prince Zharka'noreth. Prior to that, the weapon was wielded by the Chaos Space Marine Norestor, who Zharka'noreth had considered to be a brother. However he sought Daemonhood and obtaining the Sword that contained Horeth'na'xrik, would greatly aid him in that quest. This led Zharka'noreth to betray and sacrifice Norestor, on Kholash, in order to claim the bound noble Daemon for himself.^[1]
