'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Dark Apostle]] of the [[Word Bearers]] during the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
===History===
A veteran [[Chaplain]] of the [[Third Hand]] [[Chapter (Word Bearers)|Chapter]], Kurtha fought at the forefront of the [[Great Crusade]]. He became known for his boundless drive, faith, and heroism. During his Legion's worship of the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]], he was told by [[Lorgar]] himself that the Master of Mankind was watching and taking notice of him. He later fought alongside the [[Ultramarines]] against [[Orks]] in [[Ultima Segmentum]], gaining the friendship of [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Steloc Aethon]] of the [[19th Company (Ultramarines Legion)|19th Company]].{{Fn|1}}
Sedd later commanded a warband of the [[Unburdened]] that overran an underground Ultramarines stronghold commanded by [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Vultius]], after tracking [[Space Marine Sergeant|Sergeant]] [[Aeonid Thiel]] from the surface. Occupying the base, he began reshaping it as a space to conduct a ritual for summoning a [[daemon]] that would inhabit his body. However, at the moment of his planned "ascension," Thiel returned in disguise and managed to free Captain Vultius, and together they killed the Dark Apostle.{{Fn|2}}
