{{GalaxyPortalPlanetsPortal}}'''Gereon''' is a planet in the [[Sabbat Worlds]] Cluster. It was invaded and occupied by the forces of [[Chaos]], against who was waged a guerrilla war by the '''Gereon Resistance''', a mixture of ex-[[PDF]], ex-[[Imperial Guard]], ex-[[Adeptus Arbites]] and civilians.

The world was used by the [[Magister]] [[Anakwanar Sek]] to train his private army, the [[Sons of Sek]]. The Sons were his answer to the [[Blood Pact]], in order to further his goal of gaining the title of [[Archon (Chaos)|Archon]], taken by [[Urlock Gaur]] after the death of [[Nadzybar]] at [[Balhaut]].
The traitor [[Imperial Guard]] [[General]] [[Noches Sturm]] was taken to Gereon after his capture by Sek's forces, in order for the Imperial mindlock to be removed. He met his end when elements of the [[Tanith First and Only]] came to Gereon to kill him. After his death, the Tanith integrated themselves with the resistance until such a point that they could leave. Crusade forces later retook the world in order to investigate a "cure to Chaos."{{Fn|1}}
