During the [[13th Black Crusade]], Xorphas led a coalition of the Black Legion, [[Crimson Slaughter]], [[Butcherhorde]], and [[Word Bearers]] against the [[Diamor System]]. In the subsequent [[Diamor Campaign]], After his allies fulfilled their task he descented on the [[Amethal]] planet with his own army — '''Hand of Xorphas''' (that besides his own warriors also included Chaos Space Marines from the [[Hounds of Abaddon]], [[Children of Torment]], [[Black Talons (Chaos Space Marines)|Black Talons]], [[Sons of Oblivion]] and others warbands) to complete his plan. Xorphas sought to use the Chaos artifact — [[Banshee Stone]] to break the '''Daemon cage''' on Amethal, open the new [[Warp Rift]] and unleash a [[Daemonic]] tide across the system to spread Abaddon's [[Crimson Path]]. Although he did not have managed to fully destroy the cage, the damage to its wards was so great, that in time it will break and release the Daemons in reality. So Lord Xorphas retreated with remaining of his army from Amethal.{{Fn|1}}
Xorphas next appeared during the [[Arks of Omen Campaign]], advising Abaddon.{{Fn|2}}
