## History

### Childhood

Upon the Death World of Fenris was a tribe lead by Seers that were slowly corrupted by the influence of chaos. These Seers didn't know about chaos yet odd things have happened that they blamed on the gods. The tribe was heavily supperstitious and to avoid daemon incursions the tribe often did sacrifices to appease the gods. A young child was birthed during a period of strife where crops weren't growing and so the young Thorald was about the be about to be killed but as one of the Seers was doing his chants he dropped dead and several odd dog-like creatures busted into being causing interrupting the sacrifice. They ripped through the village causing the newborn Thorald and his mother to leave and join another tribe lead by The Wolf King Leman Russ. When Thorald was 10 he watched as an odd man in robes surrounded by massive men in golden armor challenged The Wolf King. When the in robes man failed he revealed himself to be The Emperor of Man and the father of Leman. After this the children of Fenris were round up and put into the VI Legiones Astartes known as the "Space Wolves".

### Space Wolves and the Horus Heresy

During the Space Wolves he was a violent battle brother. He preferred to be up-close with the enemies and loved as his chainaxe digged into the flesh of his enemies. He went through the ranks at a fast rate and eventually became a Jarl of a great company now lost to time. During the Burning of Prospero he actively murdered civilians and destroyed texts. He was reprimanded but wasn't fully punished. Later on he'd established warrior lodges within the space wolves. The warrior lodges were noticed by Leman Russ and all traitors were either murdered or fled into the eye of terror. Thorald was one of the few 30+ marine who fled into the Eye of Terror.

### Chaos and merging into of Skyrar's Dark Wolves

In late M34 a warband of khornate space wolves emerged from the Eye of Terror and had descended upon several shrine worlds. They were lead by Thorald and his company of Berzerkir. They decimated, burned, and sacked all worlds in their wake. But this warband soon fell into a problem as Slaaneshi devoted brothers fought Khornate brothers. This killed a large majority of brothers with only the Khornates and Jarl Thorald surviving. But then luck came to them as a larger traitor space wolf warband of Skyrar's Dark Wolves absorbed the Thoralds Warband. Thorald was allowed to keep his rank and lead a half of Skyrar's Dark Wolves.

### Meeting with Lord Daroth and his time in Daroth's Crusade

In late M38 Thorald was approached by the Word Bearer Chaos Lord named "Daroth". Chaos Lord Daroth made an agreement with Thorald. Daroth convinced the Jarl of the riches, raids, and sacking he can do along with other promises. Thorald was filled with glee and he joined. Jarl Thorald and his warband became a largely important part of Daroth's Crusade as they would actively rip and tear through corpse worshipers.His violence and fury was unmatched along with his humanity and love of ale. Thorald was good friends with Daroth, Slaanesh Chaos Lord Thastalis, and other members of this crusade at this time.

### Thorald's last years and eventual death

In 999.M41 Daroth's Crusade raided a shrine world. The raid was a massive onslaught that killed a lot of civilians, sisters of battle and PDF. During this raid Thorald had a 1 on 1 duel with a cannoness and failed as her power-claymore was shoved into his chest causing him to fall. This was the first sign of weakness when it came to Jarl Thorald. Thorald for the rest of the raid commanded his men over vox whilst being healed by the Blood Priests. Once he was on his feet his power armor was modified with an awful augment that bound his power armor to his flesh. It twisted and contorted as his mark 4 helmet cracked open and became a gruesome mouth. He also gained a massive possessed chain greataxe he dubbed Blodørn. After the raid he drank but oddly one of his leading Huskarl now named "Tryndemere the Betrayer" became more boastful and powerhungry. After another raid in which many chaos relic were found and a Archdeacon was killed Tryndemere challenged Jarl Thorald to the death. The duel was long but Tryndemere won as the Jarl's head went flying. But one thing Tryndemere didn't expect was that Lord Daroth was going to execute him for it. Tryndemere was soon riddled full of holes on the floor of the Duat.
