Lord of Thorns
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Lord of Thorns is the name given to a Harlequin Shadowseer who attacked both the Imperial and Chaos forces in the Invasion of the Stygius Sector. Seemingly striking at random, the Lord of Thorns and his retinue of silent killers would suddenly appear and slay Imperial and Chaos warlords before they then disappeared. No place was safe from their reach and each victim's throat was wrapped in lashthorn, which became the Lord of Thorn's calling card.[1]
