[[Image:Vorx.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Vorx]]'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[Chaos Lord]] and '''Siegemaster''' of the [[Lords of Silence]] Warband. He ==History==Vorx was among the first [[Aspirants]] taken from [[Barbarus]] to join the [[Death Guard]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]] after his [[Primarch]] [[Mortarion]] was discovered by the [[Emperor]] and took part in the battles of the [[Great Crusade]]. {{PAGENAME}} eventually rose to become a fleet commander, known as a Siegemaster within the Legion, and when the [[Horus Heresy]] began, he joined his Legion in turning upon the [[Imperium]]. After [[Warmaster]] [[Horus]]' forces were defeated in the [[Battle of Terra]] however, {{PAGENAME}} fled with the other traitors into the [[Eye of Terror]] in order to escape the Imperium's wrath. He later formed the [[Lords of Silence]], which has become one of the Death Guard's most powerful Warbands.{{Fn|1a}}
After opening the [[Great Rift]] Vorx and his Lords of Silence allied with the [[Weeping Veil]] warband of the [[Word Bearers]] and attacked [[Sabatine]] - [[Adeptus Astartes Homeworld]] of the [[White Consuls]] [[Space Marines Chapter]].{{Fn|1b}} Vorx managed not only to defeat the White Consuls personally killing its [[Chapter Master]] [[Cymar Xydias]]{{Fn|1c}} but also to disrupt the great sacrifice mastering by the Weeping Veil.{{Fn|1d}} As a result Word Bearers warband were forced to leave the planet and the Sabatine itself became the fertile ground for new diseases and maladies, remastering by the Lords of Silence to a copy of the [[Plague Planet]] itself. Vorx remained uncertain though - whether to stay on the planet or respond to the call of [[Mortarion]] and joined the assault on [[Ultramar]].{{Fn|1e}}
