'''Ka'Bandha''' is a [[Bloodthirster]] of [[Khorne]] and is described as the mightiest of Khorne's servants.{{Fn|2b}}
== History ==
Ka'Bandha first appeared leading Daemonic forces against the [[Blood Angels]] at the [[Battle of Signus Prime]] alongside the [[Keeper of Secrets]] [[Kyriss the Perverse]], being summoned to the [[Materium]] by sacrificing the [[Word Bearer]] [[Astropath]] [[Corocoro Sahzë]].{{Fn|5}} During the battle Ka'Bandha engaged in an airborne battle with [[Sanguinius]] and broke the Primarch's legs before unleashing the [[Ragefire]] upon the Legion and activating the dormant [[Red Thirst]] within the Legion. After Sanguinius was recovered thanks to the efforts of his Blood Angels, he engaged in a second round of fighting with Ka'Bandha and banished him back to the Warp.{{Fn|5}} Ka'Bandha may also have been responsible for the [[Black Rage]] afflicting the [[Blood Angels]] and their [[Successor Chapter]]s to this day.{{Fn|1a}}
The Daemon would return to plague the Blood Angels again during the [[Battle of Terra]], where it yet again challenged the Angel to battle. Attacking the Primarch when his back was turned, the daemon quickly cast Sanguinius to the ground. But, unlike Signus Prime, this time Sanguinius rose to his feet once again, and calling upon the last of his strength, hefted the Daemon by the neck, raised it above his head, and with a last display of might, broke Ka'Bandha's back over his knee, before hurling the [[Greater Daemon]] back into the heretic army and finally retreating back to the safety beyond the walls of the [[Eternity Gate]].{{Fn|1b}}
In 944.[[M41]] the [[Grey Knight]]'s prognosticars predicted that Ka’Bandha would shortly
return to the mortal world. Knowing Ka'Bandha to be a dangerous foe, and moreover one
who had earned the bitter enmity of the Blood Angels, the Grey Knights brought this news to
the attention of [[Commander Dante]] and proposed a joint strike. A combined strike force of Blood Angels and Grey Knights assailed Ka'Bandha's fortress on the [[Daemon world]] of [[Kalagazaar]]. Ka'Bandha was banished, the Daemon armies were destroyed and Kalagazaar itself subjected to [[Exterminatus]]. At the campaign's end, the surviving Blood Angels had their memories wiped - a price Dante agreed with the Grey
Knights at the mission's start.{{Fn|3}}
