Ygethmor the Deceiver

"I do this not for my glory, nor the glory of the Despoiler. I do this for the glory of the Black Legion, the Dark Gods and Chaos!"

- Ygethmor the Deceiver

Ygethmor the Deceiver, known also as the "Twice Damned" and the "Purgator of Corrialis," is a formidable Sorcerer Lord of the Black Legion. He currently serves as one of Abaddon the Despoiler's lieutenants of his personal retinue, known as the Chosen of Abaddon, and is the current Lord Deceiver, whose visions of the Warp lead the Black Crusade from star system to star system. During the 13th Black Crusade in 999.M41, the Officio Assassinorum sanctioned the deployment of an assassin team to eliminate Ygethmor amongst other notable targets. Whilst scrutiny of their field records is impossible, at least seven Assassinorum agents are known to have failed in the attempt to take his life.
