History
Pre-Primach:
Was assigned to command the 11th Sub-Company, like his brothers he longed for the day when the Emperor's Children would follow their own Primarch into battle.
Post-Primach: After Fulgrim himself began to lead their great forces, Savorn strived for perfection, like the rest of the legion. When the legion began it's worship of Slaanesh, Savorn and his sub-company went willingly, becomming obserbed into the pleasures of the flesh and of battle. They became consumate warriors, killing with grace and art. Showing no mercy to their foes, a slow torturous death was often in store to any unfortunates in their path. When the legion landed upon Terra, Savorn, tiring of the sport of the civilians, led his sub-company against the loyalist marines. With the death of Horus, he, along wtih the 6th Great Company, fought their way back to the Eye of Terror, seeking refuge on Skalathrax. It was there that the Great Company was broken. Charging into battle with his sub-company in a counter-attack, Savorn was badly wounded by the berserk Kharn. Limping from the field of battle, he led his warriors in a retreat back to orbit. Calling himself the Lord-Captain, he began his own campaigns against the Imperium.
Background
For ten thousand years Savorn has prayed upon the Imperium, seeking to honor Slaanesh with battle and with flesh. Preferring to raid worlds where the Adeptus Astartes are located, the 11th began to operate further and further from the Eye of Terror. Utilizing few Demons, they opened a close kinship with members of the Alpa Legion, and Savorn learned the art of subterfuge and secrecy. It was thus that he was able to lead his marines in a blistering series of raids, slaying dozens of Imperial Generals and high members of the Ecclisiarcy. When the Space Marine chapter, the Masters of Protelus, brought them to combat however, they were forced to retreat back into the Eye. After several hundred years of rebuilding, expanding, and hunting, the sub-company again began a series of raids, once more fighting with members of other Legions, this time with Night Lords and Iron Warriors, seeking only to please Slaanesh on the field of battle, as well as with pain and flesh afterwards.
