→Early History
Talgron left Terra shortly after, commanding the 34th Company in the [[Shadow Crusade]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]. During the [[Percepton Campaign]] Talgron hunted down a team of [[Ultramarines]] that had retreated to an underground bunker but was too late to prevent them from triggering a bombardment of [[phosphex bombs]] that burned away all life on the planet. His flesh melting into his armour, Talgron was rescued from the surface and died on the [[Apothecary|apothecary's]] slab, but in near-death experienced a vision of [[Lorgar]] that opened his mind to the wonders of [[Chaos]] and allowed him to live. His body rebuilt with a mixture of [[augmetic]]s and [[Warp]]-mutations, Talgron became a [[Dark Apostle]].{{Fn|1}}
During the final battles for the [[Inner Palace]], the hulking Sor Talgron, now fully consumed by [[Chaos]], meets [[Imperial Fists]] [[Captain]] [[Fafnir Rann]] in battle. Talgron had known Rann during the [[Great Crusade]], and between his maddened chantings of the [[Horus|"Dark King]] " expressed disappointment that the Imperial Fist was rejecting the gifts of Chaos. Despite is formidable strength, he is cut apart by Rann after a difficult battle. Talgron's butchered corpse was carried away by the Word Bearers and he was subsequently reborn as a [[Dreadnought]], despite it being the one fate he always rejected.{{Fn|5}}
