Lorgar, also known as Lorgar Aurelian and The Urizen, is the Primarch of the Word Bearers legion, the extra religious legion of Kheyos Sphess Mahreens. He is credited within 40k fluff for being the first Primarch to fall to the ruinous powers. Yes, we know what you're thinking and no, Horus was just the first Primarch to be public about it. Lorgar was the first to be corrupted, though this wasn't noticed as he was very secretive about it.
Pre-Heresy
Like the rest of the Primarchs, Lorgar was scattered through the Warp by the Chaos Gods. Landing on Colchis, a Feral World which worshipped the Chaos Gods, Lorgar was taken in by the priests of the Covenant, the religious order of Colchis, primarily the priest Kor Phaeron. His psychic talent manifested in visions of a messiah coming to Colchis. This pissed off most of the Covenant, so Lorgar and Kor Phaeron organized a purge. By the time they were done, the Emperor of Mankind and Magnus the Red arrived on Colchis and Lorgar hailed him as his lord. After about a month of celebrations, the Emperor appointed Lorgar head of the Imperial Heralds, which Lorgar renamed the Word Bearers.
During the Great Crusade, Lorgar loved the Emprah. Like really loved him; in fact, he was the first Primarch to venerate the Emprah like a god. He loved the Emprah so much that he wrote an awesome book about how great Emps was and built a fuckhueg cathedral to him, along with fuckheug cathedrals in every last world the Word Bearers conquered. Empy caught wind of all this and was not amused, since Lorgar's religiosity threatened to undermine his super sekrit Operation Starve-the-Fuck-Out-of-Chaos. He made Lorgar stop his god worship and told him to go out and conquer the rest of space. By having the Ultramarines destroy a compliant city that epitomized Lorgar's accomplishments, then ordering Lorgar and the entire XVII Legion to kneel before the Emperor, Roboute Guilliman, and Malcador the Sigilite. Wracked with self-doubt, after punching Guilliman in the face, Lorgar began listening to Kor Phaeron (now First Captain of the Word Bearers) and First Chaplain Erebus about how there might be other Gods that would accept worship. This in turn lead to the Lorgar traveling to a primitive planet called Cadia where he learned the truth about the Emprah's Imperial Truth. The rest is history heresy
Before the heresy Lorgar considered himself the weakest Primarch as both a fighter and warlord, acting more as a diplomat and preacher. His actions during Heresy proved he was wrong. When Lorgar first toured the Eye of Terror, he was forced to fight An'ggrath - the greatest daemon of Khorne, who is to Bloodthirsters what Bloodthirsters are to Bloodletter gretchin. Lorgar won without having his back, leg, wing or nails broken in the process, unlike some other Primarch, who was known as one of the best fighters among them, and who failed against a considerably weaker Bloodthirster. His plan of attack on Calth resulted in beating the shit out of Ultramarine forces four times his army's size, proving Lorgar was also a damn good warlord.
He was also terrifyingly powerful psyker, but refused to use his gift for the same reasons. He ceased this emo shit after falling to Chaos, turning into a badass sorcerer able to rival Magnus, or at least severely wounding Magnus's psychic projection, which is still far beyond any 40k-level monster-psyker capabilities.
Post Heresy
So now he's the Daemon-Primarch of the Word Bearers, the guys who make the rest of the Chaos Space Marines look like all around swell secular humanist types. They're kind of like Jehovah's Witnesses except instead of knocking on your door and telling to you about Jesus they knock down your door and ask you which end of a daemon summoning you want to be on. This tends to make Chaos's otherwise awful selling pitch seem oddly compelling. He also has a particular hatred for atheists, so he loathes the weeaboo space communists more than he hates everything else.
In a supreme twist on irony, everything the Ecclesiarchy of the Imperium (which is primary target for the Word Bearers during conquest) derives most if not all of their religious texts from Lorgar. That Bible they administer to citizens daily? The prayers quintilians of soldiers and civilians daily say in an effort to believe? That devotion to the Emperor? All fostered and nurtured by Lorgar. All brought about by his and his Legion's sheer devotion. In short, Lorgar is responsible for both the Heresy that marked the end of the Imperium's golden age, and the only thing that would save Humanity in its long evolution to a fully psychic race. That being said, Lorgar is actually so ashamed of the Lectitio Divinitatus (the primary holy book of the Imperium) that bringing it up is a surefire way to have your body and soul decimated in such horrific ways that no words exist in the myriad tongues of the universe to fully encompass the unholy rape you would receive.
Since the heresy Lorgar's notable achievements consist of becoming a Daemon Prince of Chaos Undivided (and, yes, that is technically possible) before doing sweet fuck all for several millenia. Seriously, at least Magnus pretends to be plotting the downfall of Man or something while he sits in his tower screaming "JUST AS PLANNED" at the top of his lungs whenever he pours milk over his daemon cereal, and he actually got off his ass and lead the Thousand Sons to wreck the Space Wolves' shit on their own home planet. Lorgar? The lazy fuckwit has just been holed up on Sicarus meditating and traversing the warp. Congratulations, Chaos Gods, you have created the Lovecraftian equivalent of that unemployed asshole friend who won't get off your couch. Seeing how much of a manipulative bastard Erebus is, it's entirely possible that he locked Lorgar in his tower and then took over the legion. FUCK.
