AP3 admittedly is somewhat of a blow, but this is compensated for against more dangerous foes with its latent abilities and his own 3++ save. Yet, only one soul could see the Warp as it truly was, and that was Magnus the Red, the only one of his brothers that Jaghatai had ever truly trusted. As for Eldar, Slaanesh would nab them the moment they entered the Warp. Their pestilential master would no doubt value such a prize most highly.

", Primarch Mortarion of the Death Guard Legion surrounded by his Deathshroud Honour Guard. Seeing that the peasants were unable to effectively fight back, Mortarion joined the fray, wielding a massive harvesting scythe that made short work of the beasts. Such were his fighting skills, martial power and physical and mental abilities that there were those, even within the Imperial Court, that dared to call him "Primarch" in all but name. He brings decay and sickness, despair and fear to all those who witness his dark majesty.

Quite frankly, he's only useful as the mother of all beatsticks. As Mortarion at last swore his soul to the eternal service of the Plague God in return for an end to the ceaseless agony, Nurgle responded with his usual generosity. The Khan observed him guardedly, for Mortarion had always been hard to read. Also we see just what got him the job; he was simply the only one with enough skill to even try to beat Mortarion, even Draigo admitted he was a horrible choice, but that didn't matter since he would most likely die anyway. Despite his adoptive father being a ruthless necromancer, Mortarion felt reluctant to attack the man who took him in and called off the planned attack on the advice of Calas Typhon, who warned that he was not yet ready to face the High Overlord even with the new suits of armour. Jaghatai, carried by the momentum of his final thrust, staggered though the empty space where his brother -- now his enemy -- had been. Draigo can make that happen. Since Draigo is the only GK with a storm shield there will never be any doubt who he is on the table. Now greatly empowered, M'kar was the physical superior of Draigo, and the two fought in an arduous battle, the Grey Knight nearly dying and only winning through sheer luck. Eventually, only one peak denied them access, the one on which Mortarion's adoptive father had made his home. Mortarion believed that victory in battle came through sheer resilience, and Horus, who used the strengths and weaknesses of the different legions to create the most efficient fighting force possible, used his legion in co-ordination with Mortarion's frequently.

Only he remained pure, free of the corruption wrought by the Warp. Doubtless, as we all know, time passes differently in the Warp; Kaldor himself may have been experiencing years or centuries there, but time crawls linearly along for everyone in the Prime Material, and that therefore would have zero impact on the age and number of surviving, recognizable members of the Grey Knights whom he left behind.
