Editing Ka'bandha (section)

==Ka'bandha in [[Warhammer 40,000|40k]]==
===944.M41, Kalagazaar===
The [[Grey Knights]] and Blood Angels team up to attack the daemon world Ka'bandha was on, in order to prevent his imminent predicted return to the mortal realm. Much fighting later, Ka'bandha is defeated using the sharpened femur of Brother-Captain Solor, a dead Grey Knight who killed Ka'banha once, a long time ago, and so his bones have some kind of special power against the daemon. Kalagazaar is subjected to [[Exterminatus]]. The surviving Blood Angels all have their memories wiped after the battle because that's what Grey Knights do.

===999.M41, Baal system===
Ka'bandha returns once more, along with a massive army of Daemons of Khorne, intent on wiping out [[Blood Angels|those pesky kids]] once and for all. While the war between these Daemons and the Blood Angels is still quite an important ongoing conflict, Ka'bandha himself was defeated in single combat by the [[Sanguinor]], by [[Awesome|being choke-slammed from space and exploding in a crater of gore on impact]]. He ''does'' have a habit of getting the shit beaten out of him by winged entities in golden armour.

===M42, Baal system===
Set during the [[Devastation of Baal]] and the [[Indomitus Crusade]], the Blood Angels and their successor chapters were defending against [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]]. The Blood Angels defense would not hold for long and as the final defense was broken something strange occurred. A Warp anomaly occurred and swept away the hive fleet. Every Imperial and Tyranid on the moon Baal Prime was dead and the skulls of the dead xenos were arranged so that they would create the symbol of Ka'Bandha on the moon. It would seem that Khorne had intervened and saved the remaining Blood Angels alongside the arrival of the Indomitus Crusade and [[Roboute Guilliman|Papa Smurf]]. It is also likely because he considers the Blood Angels and their descendants to be his prey and doesn't take kindly the idea of Space Bugs eating them all before he can annihilate them at full strength himself.

We can only imagine Ka'bandha looking away from the Blood Angels after this and claiming he didn't save them because he thought they were his worthiest rivals or anything, i-idiots (Bakas).

Actually, the story is even more interesting than that. The 'warp anomaly' was nothing less than the [[Great Rift]] opening, which made his return possible in the first place - Bloodthirsters like Ka'bandha aren't supposed to enter realspace more than once a millennium. [[Mephiston]] had a vision of his arrival, as the Blood Angels were preparing for Leviathan's arrival. He told Dante, who absolutely did not need this right now, and told Mephiston to gather all the Librarians in secret and fucking SUMMON the daemon so they could banish it quickly. This is a flying leap over the line that loyal Imperial psykers are never supposed to cross, but it was only the third regrettable thing that Dante had had to do since lunch. Long story short, [[That Guy]] botches the ritual and they couldn't banish him from the materium, only the ritual chamber, and he end up in orbit. Fortunately, this was all happening before the Rift actually reached Baal, so the warp energy needed to fully sustain a greater daemon isn't present, and there's an amusing passage about Ka'bandha raging at his wings for not working in the void of space like they usually do. He isn't able to get back at the Librarians, and he falls to Baal Prime, where he stays when the Rift finally hits and he's able to summon his daemonic horde.
