Kor'sarro Khan
“Surround yourself with the greatest warriors at your disposal, or crouch in the deepest, darkest hole you can find. It does not matter. I will take your head for the Great Khan and for the Emperor."
— Kor'sarro Khan, White Scars 3rd Brotherhood
Kor'sarro Khan is the Khan (Captain) of the 3rd Brotherhood (Company) of the Chapter of White Scars Space Marines and also the current Master of the Hunt of the Chapter. Savage to the point of savagery, bold to the point of recklessness, and brazen to the point of disobedience, he is nonetheless one of the order's most accomplished warriors.
The Khan of the 3rd Brotherhood has faced many daunting foes and great challenges during his service with the Order, including encountering an alpha-level psyker on Delta Arbuthnot, where the entire population of Ratling Agrarian Thralls are mind-controlled by the psyker and do so take up arms against Imperial landowners and use their shovels against machine gun guards.
Another such battle took place around the third moon of Woebetide, where many solar decades earlier, Kor'sarro fought as a Scout Marine against the warp beings known as the Enslavers.
Ten thousand mind-controlled Cadians were psychically compelled by these warp-dwelling beings to march across a 100-kilometer-wide minefield under fire from the Chapters of White Scars, Red Hunters, and Celestial Lions. Kor'sarro Khan's greatest achievement, however, was completing the hunt for Voldorius.
Kor'sarro Khan was one of the Empire's most celebrated heroes. As direct and unyielding as a well-forged blade, the khan is a warrior of violent determination who has no time for diplomatic subtleties or courtly manners. He is a master hunter whose minds are set on decapitating his sworn prey.
Whether riding his famed Assault Bike Moondrakkan or charging into battle in the armored hold of a Rhino or Stormraven gunship, the Khan brings his prey down with the unfailing tenacity of a born killer. When combat inevitably begins, his revered blade Moonfang whistles in a silvery arc to take the head of his prey with unerring lethality.
But the Khan's barbaric exterior hides a deep spirituality and strategic acumen that make him a far more deadly opponent than meets the eye, for he is also an inspiring leader and a cunning tactician. Kor'sarro Khan embodies the hunter's spearhead, the hardened point of the blade, and his warriors follow him with a devotion that borders on worship.
Kor'sarro Khan is the 51st Master of the Hunt of the Order of the White Scars - an individual honor since the days of the Order's Primarch Jaghatai Khan and a title reserved only for the Order of the White Scars. Ahead of all other Astartes orders, it is the White Scars who choose to seek the blood of an opponent who, by a quirk of fate or ruse in battle, met them and survived to tell the tale.
The White Scars will not allow such foes to rejoice in the small victory of their survival. Every 25 standard years, at the height of the howling rites, the master of the hunt is dispatched to track down such an enemy and bring his severed head back to the White Scars fortress-monastery on Chogoris as a trophy and proof of his deed.
A master swordsman, Kor'sarro Khan is even deadlier when dueling enemy characters, whose skulls he will add to his already formidable trophy rack. As Captain of the Space Marines, he inspires even greater acts of glory to the White Scars around him. Kor'sarro Khan is an example of the Order of the White Scars, armed with the deadly blade Moonfang and accompanied by the cyber-berkut Anzuq.
This 21 piece plastic set makes one Captain Kor'sarro Khan and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round base.
