240 - Mortarion, Origins and Great Crusade

*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*

In this episode, we explore the origins of Mortarion, Primarch of the Death Guard, from his creation in the Emperor's Primarch Project to his harsh upbringing upon the toxic world of Barbarus. We examine his struggle against the necromantic Overlords, his reunion with the Emperor, and his transformation of the Dusk Raiders into the relentless Death Guard. From there, we follow his role throughout the Great Crusade, exploring his philosophy, leadership, wargear, relationships with his brother Primarchs, and the campaigns that forged his Legion into one of the Imperium's most feared instruments of conquest. Before betrayal consumed the galaxy, Mortarion had already become a legend of grim endurance, relentless warfare, and unwavering resolve.
