The Patriarch was originally one of a group of [[Purestrain Genestealer]]s sent to Vigilus by the Pauper Princes Cult that infected the world [[Chancer’s Vale]], but only it survived the journey. Soon afterwards, the Grandsire Wurm made its home under the surface of the continent '''Megaborealis''' and began spreading its infection among Vigilus' population.{{Fn|1}}
Grandsire Wurm was later killed by a trio of [[Callidus Assassins]] who had disguised themselves as latter-generation [[Genestealer Hybrids]]. None of the assassins survived the action behind enemy lines.
Despite their sacrifice, there was more than one Patriarch upon Vigilus and another incarnation of Grandsire Wurm rose soon afterwards.{{Fn|2}}
