Kor Phaeron - First Captain of the Word Bearers

Kor Phaeron - First Captain of the Word Bearers

- Warhammer 40K Forgeworld - Kor Phaeron was the First Captain of the Word Bearers Traitor Legion and the Primarch Lorgar’s spiritual counsel and foster father during the years of Lorgar’s youth on the Word Bearers’ homeworld of Colchis, before Lorgar was rediscovered by the Imperium. It was Kor Phaeron’s influence that corrupted his Primarch and the Astartes of the XVII Legion into repudiating their oaths to the Emperor of Mankind and becoming willing pawns of Chaos. After the Word Bearers’ fall to the service of the Ruinous Powers, Kor Phaeron became the Black Cardinal of the Word Bearers and one of the primary leaders of the Legion’s ruling Dark Council, alongside his ancient rival, the Dark Apostle Erebus.
