A veteran of the [[Long War]], Chengrel took part in the [[Battle of Terra|Siege of the Emperor's Palace]] in the [[Horus Heresy]]. Millennia of battling the [[Imperium]] has taken the toll on his body, which is heavily augmented by [[bionic]]s and mechanical replacements. By [[M41]], his remains were housed in a custom-built massive four-legged [[Chaos Dreadnought|Dreadnought]]. Chengrel is noted to having burned the Imperial [[Hive World]] of [[Heggoru]], which was under the protection of the [[Imperial Fist]]s, a [[Chapter]] Chengrel despises like most of the Iron Warriors.{{Fn|1}}
After acquiring a large number of [[Eldar]] [[Spirit Stone]]s, Chengrel held a great auction among the Chaos Space Marines to decide who would obtain them. Among those interested was [[Hodir]] of the [[Night Lords]], [[Emmesh-Aiye]] of the [[Emperor's Children]], [[Drachmus]] of the [[Word Bearers]], and [[Khrove]] of the [[Thousand Sons]]. The lord who spoke the greatest tale of destruction against the Imperium would win the prize, though to Chengrel's disgust it turned out that none of the Chaos Lords gathered were [[Horus Heresy]] veterans and original members of the [[Legio Astartes]]. Rather, they had all been forcibly recruited or conscripted into their Legions forces in the ten thousand years since the Heresy. Worse still, most of their tales involved fighting other traitor legions rather then waging the Long War against the Imperium. Not thinking any of them worthy of the Spirit Stones, Chengrel flew into a rage and attacked his fellow Chaos overlords after thinking they had respected him with their very presence. A great free-for-all erupted in Chengrel's fortress that saw the deaths of Drachmus, Hodir, and Emmesh-Aiye. After viciously battling against Khrove, the [[Sorcerer]] managed to escape with the Spirit Stones.{{Fn|1}} Since then, Chengrel has plotted revenge against the legions that is convinced have betrayed him.{{Fn|1}}
