Editing Argel Tal (section)

==Biography==
[[File:Argel Tal HH Legions.png|thumb|The only source I could find of this artwork. Damn that daemon [[pauldron]] is awesome.]]
Argel Tal was a native of Colchis, inducted in the Word Bearers Space Marine Legion by First Chaplain Erebus, who at first had chosen him to become one of the Legion's Chaplains. But eventually, Argel Tal took up the role of Captain of the 7th Assault Company in the Serrated Sun Chapter. Being on board the light cruiser ''Orfeo's Lament'' alongside Ingethel the Ascended, Argel Tal witnessed the horrible world beyond the Eye of Terror, while undertaking The Pilgrimage ordained by Primarch Lorgar. While in The Eye, he was convinced by Ingethel to lower the ship's [[Gellar Field]] under the pretext of 'enlightening' him and as a consequence he was [[/d/|murderraped, turned inside out and abused in ways unfathomable down to the molecular level]] before being put together again as a comfy fleshy vessel by the daemon Raum [[troll|while Ingethel mocked him]]. Tal and around fifty other Word Bearers managed to return to their Legion (the mortal crew having been simply murder-raped to death [[grimdark|and later their remains used as impromptu rations by the starving Astartes]]), and at Lorgar's request he divulged what he could to the Primarch of his experience in the Immaterium, providing useful insight for the Book of Lorgar (Raum remaining conveniently dormant 'until the time was right', aka. 'don't bother me with trivial meatbag concerns, mortals'). In honor of his achievements in the Chapter, his Primarch installed him as the Captain of his Gal Vorbak (the "Blessed Sons") an elite cadre of warriors who were the first to wear the crimson colour on their power armour (and accessorily to [[Possessed|harbor a Daemon inside them]]).

Lorgar then put him in charge of <s>sacrificing</s> helping other Word Bearers bind with Daemons, something Argel Tal wasn't really okay with but did it anyway because Lorgar asked him to. They found out the hard way that Daemons couldn't care less about bonding with well-balanced warriors who had their and their Brothers' survival in mind, but were really eager to bind to any unhinged soul [[rage|consumed with revenge]] against the [[Ultramarines|blue faggots]] or just [[grimdark|killing in general because they were confined to a dreadnought shell]]. Argel managed to entice around two-thousand daemons to bind with his fellow Word Bearers in time for them to [[rape|have some fun backstabbin' time]] on Calth.

Leading the Gal Vorbak, Argel Tal descended finally on Isstvan V against the Raven Guard and their loyalist allies, the Salamanders and the Iron Hands. It was shown to Lorgar by Ingethel the Ascended during his sojourn into the Eye of Terror that Argel Tal will become much more powerful, becoming taller than a Primarch in his Daemon form, and will fight and die "under the shadow of mighty pinions". At first, they thought it meant facing [[Corvus Corax]] on Istvaan, and when he survived that, during the Siege of Terra by the Primarch Sanguinius after rampaging through a squad of Imperial Fists. However [[Erebus]], this Motherfucker, would later claim that this was only a potential future. Right before stabbing him in the back. What a [[dick]].

Argel Tal is also known for his 'Humanity' and Bromance with Khârn the Betrayer. The two of them were known and renowned for constantly sniping snarky comments at one another without it ever descending into violence between them, having each other's back in battle and fighting together in the World Eater's fighting pits [[lulz|where they lost almost all their bouts since they couldn't care less about such 'fake' combat.]]

The BL novel 'The First Heretic' also details that Argel Tal was also a surprisingly chill dude and total bro pre-Heresy. He was the first one to go down to Monarchia, not because he was ordered to, but he went before his superior officer because ''he wanted answers''. Not only that, he was the dude who rescued a survivor, a lady called Cyrene, from Monarchia, and was the first one at Lorgar's side when Magnus refused to help him undertake the Pilgrimage. Argel Tal also had a personal friendship with Aquillon. Aquillon was a Custodian. So yeah, this dude was a bro' with a fucking '''Custodian'''. Make of that what you will.
