Shattered Legions - Iron Hands: Durun Atticus (Veritas Ferrum) - Captain of the 111th Clan-Company and commander of the Strike Cruiser Veritas Ferrum, he arrived with the second wave of Iron Hands vessels at Isstvan V, due to the damage sustained by the callous attack of the fleeing Emperor's Children at Callinedes, after Fulgrim unsuccessfully tried to woo his brother Primarch Ferrus Manus to the Warmaster Horus' cause. A substantial number of the Iron Hands vessels in the secondary wave were destroyed by the Traitors' surprise attack. After receiving word of their Primarch's death, the Veritas Ferrum made a desperate attempt to flee, but received a Vox-hail from two Thunderhawk gunships bearing survivors of the massacre. Sergeant Khi'dem of the Salamanders' 139th Company convinced Atticus of their identity, and so, Atticus ordered his ship to recover the survivors. But in the ensuing melee, the Iron Hands lost many more lives the number of survivors they had just rescued, before finally making an emergency jump into the Warp.Achaicus (Veritas Ferrum)Athanatos (Veritas Ferrum)Atrax (Veritas Ferrum) - A surviving Dreadnought of the 111th Clan-Company.Auulus (Veritas Ferrum) - Auulus was a Sergeant of the Iron Hands 111th Clan-Company. He survived the void ambush at Isstvan V, but would later be killed on the ship's bridge in orbit over the newly discovered Death World of Pythos.Catigernus (Veritas Ferrum)Crevther (Veritas Ferrum) - A Sergeant of the Iron Hands 111th Clan-Company, who served aboard the Veritas Ferrum.Camnus (Veritas Ferrum) - A surviving Techmarine of the 111th Clan-Company, that served aboard the Veritas Ferrum.Darras (Veritas Ferrum) - A surviving Sergeant of the 111th Clan-Company, that served aboard the Veritas Ferrum.Ecdurus (Veritas Ferrum)Ennuis (Veritas Ferrum)Eutropius (Veritas Ferrum)Lacertus (Veritas Ferrum) - A surviving Sergeant of the 111th Clan-Company, that served aboard the Veritas Ferrum.Vektus (Veritas Ferrum) - A surviving Apothecary of the 111th Clan-Company, that served aboard the Veritas Ferrum.Shadrak Meduson - Commander of the Iron Hands' 10th Clan-Company, the Sorrgol Clan, he would play an instrumental role in the organisation of the Shattered Legions into a coherent Loyalist strike force, consisting of separate cells, and go onto lead a successful retribution campaign against the Traitor Legions. Meduson's ultimate fate, following the events on Dwell, are unknown.Bion Henricos - Sergeant of Shadrak Meduson's 10th Clan-Company, the Sorrgol Clan, he would survive the void ambush and go on to take part in the guerrilla war against the Traitor forces. He would later be killed during the Battle of Dwell by Horus Aximand.Cadmus Tyro (Sisypheum) (KIA) - Cadmus Tyro served as Equerry to Captain Ulrach Branthan, fighting alongside his fellow Isstvan V survivors aboard the Iron Hands Strike Cruiser Sisypheum. He took part in the final mission of the Sisypheum to acquire the Magna Mater on Luna. During the fighting, Branthan and Cadmus Tyro sacrificed themselves to hold off the Justaerin Terminators of the Sons of Horus in order to allow Nykona Sharrowkyn time to escape with the Magna Mater.Frater Thamatica, "Ironwrought" (Sisypheum) - Frater Thamatica was an Iron Father of the Iron Hands Legion, a member of the Morlocks, and a survivor of the killing fields of the Urgall Depression on the world of Isstvan V. It was Thamatica who helped establish contact with the disparate groups of Loyalist forces whohad escaped the Drop Site Massacre, and he helped develop a stratagem for their survival. He would go onto to serve amongst the valiant Loyalist crew of the Sisypheum. Following Isstvan V, it is believed that he is the longest serving and senior-most surviving Iron Father within the X Legion.Vermana Cybus (Sisypheum) - One of the few surviving Morlocks of the decimated Clan Avernii during the disastrous campaign on Isstvan V, he would go onto to serve amongst the valiant Loyalist crew of the Sisypheum. He stood apart, even in a brotherhood of remarkable warriors, for he had personally witnessed the death of Ferrus Manus at the hands of the treacherous Fulgrim.Ulrach Branthan (Sisypheum) (KIA) - Branthan was the revered captain of the Iron Hands' 65th Company, an iron-blooded son of the Nirankar Clan. He had survived the massacre of the killing grounds of the Urgall Depression on Isstvan V during the Drop Site Massacre, sustaining horrific wounds that left him in permanent agony. Both of his legs were mutilated as well as an arm, and he suffered from multiple other mortal wounds. When his damaged body was recovered and brought aboard the Sisypheum the Apothecary realised it was beyond repair. With no Dreadnought chassis available the Apothecary turned to the next best option and used The Heart of Iron, a relic from the Dark Age of Technology. This device clamped across the captain's torso like a mechanised arachnid parasite and started to slowly regrow his damaged organs. But it also fed off his life energy and would most likely have killed him before healing all his damaged organs. In addition, the stasis field generator of his medicae casket helped to keep Branthan alive throughout much of the journey of the Sisypheum. Kept in stasis for much of that time, he led the Loyalist crew of the Sisypheum in a successful hit-and-run campaign throughout the remainder of the Horus Heresy. Branthan was later revived inside the shell of the former Dreadnought body of Karaashi Bombastus but without a cybernetic sarcophagus, merely being placed into a cable-wound cocoon of raw sutures and bare flesh, his brain directly wired into the Dreadnought's mind impulse circuitry. He took part in the final mission of the Sisypheum to acquire the Magna Mater on Luna. During the fighting, Branthan and Cadmus Tyro sacrificed themselves to hold off the Justaerin Terminators of the Sons of Horus in order to allow Nykona Sharrowkyn time to escape with the Magna Mater.Ignatius Numen (Sisypheum) - One of the few surviving Morlocks of the decimated Clan Avernii during the disastrous campaign on Isstvan V, he would go onto to serve amongst the valiant Loyalist crew of the Sisypheum. He stood apart, even in a brotherhood of remarkable warriors, for he had personally witnessed the death of Ferrus Manus at the hands of the treacherous Fulgrim. Sustaining serious injuries during the fighting on Isstvan V, Numen's features had the plasticised sheen of synth-skin after a close-range plasma detonation had seared the ceramite of his battle helm to his skull. His flash-burned eyes had been replaced by simple targeting optics, but his hearing was almost entirely gone. Numen's ultimate fate is unknown.Septus Thoic (Sisypheum) - One of the few surviving Morlocks of the decimated Clan Avernii during the disastrous campaign on Isstvan V, he would go onto to serve amongst the valiant Loyalist crew of the Sisypheum. He stood apart, even in a brotherhood of remarkable warriors, for he had personally witnessed the death of Ferrus Manus at the hands of the treacherous Fulgrim. Thoic's face was bisected by a curling series of scars inflicted by a laughing swordsman of the Emperor's Children. Thoic's ultimate fate is unknown.Sabik Wayland (Sisypheum) - An Iron Father of the Iron Hands Legion, he survived the disastrous events on Isstvan V, and went on to serve with other Loyalist survivors on the Iron Hands vessel Sisypheum."Karaashi" Bombastus (Sisypheum) - Known as the "Iron Thunder of Medusa," Bombastus was a fearsome Iron Hands Dreadnought who survived the horrific events of the Isstvan V, and went on to serve alongside other disparate Loyalist survivors aboard the Iron Hands vessel Sisypheum. He would later give his life during the events upon the dead Eldar Craftworld of Iydris, to stop the Iron Warriors and Emperor's Children from attaining a xenos weapons known as the Angel Exterminatus.Autek Mor (Red Talon) - Autek Mor, known as "The Maimed" and the "Blood-Wrought," was both Iron Lord and Iron Father to the infamous Morragul Clan of the Iron Hands Legion. He was known for his fearsome mien and bitter anima, and ruled over his Clan Company with an iron fist. Though he and his Primarch Ferrus Manus did not see eye-to-eye, when the Loyalist Legions were callously betrayed during the Drop Site Massacre of Isstvan V, it was Autek Mor and his flagship, the Red Talon, that was one of the first Iron Hands vessels that arrived in the Isstvan System amid the titanic space battle that had erupted between the Loyalist and Traitor fleets. Mor ordered his vessel to attack in a desperate attempt to reach the planet's surface and was only driven off after sustaining massive damage, fleeing the system dogged by murderous pursuit. Even as the Imperium reeled, Autek Mor would begin his own war, one fought beyond the sight and the staying hand of the War Council on Terra. It cannot be said for certain when Autek Mor launched the first strike of his campaign, yet certainly the fate met by Gethsamaine Colonus in the Cyclops Cluster must rank as one of the very first such instances. The Iron Hands claimed key Traitor prisoners before destroying the world's major cities in all-consuming nuclear blasts that would render the entire world uninhabitable for generations to come.Veneratii Oberas (Red Talon) - Once this Ancient was known as Centurion Calen Oberas, one of many officers whose flawed temperament earned him rebuke and transfer to Clan Morragul under Ferrus Manus' harsh regime. Centurion Oberas fell in battle defending the Red Talon from a World Eaters boarding party during the Traitors' ambush at lstvaan V. This pier was recovered from one of the ruined cities of Gethsamaine, by which time Oberas had been interred into a Dreadnought shell to continue his service to Clan Morragul. His frenzied rampage through the ill-trained Gethsamaine troops is a testament to the consuming fury that engulfed many of the Gorgon's children after his death at lstvaan V. Veneratii Oberas' ultimate fate is unknown.Domadus (Fire Ark) - Domadus served as the Iron Hands Legion's unofficial quartermaster. Surviving the Drop Site Massacre on Isstvan V, Battle-Brother Domadus would serve alongside fellow disparate survivors of the vessel Fire Ark and continue to wage a successful guerrilla campaign against the forces of the Traitor Legions.Verud Pergellen (Fire Ark) - Survivor of the Drop Site Massacre on Isstvan V, Battle-Brother Pergellen would serve alongside fellow disparate survivors of the vessel Fire Ark as a Legionary sniper, and continue to wage a successful guerrilla campaign against the forces of the Traitor Legions.Casalir Lorramech - Captain of the 98th Clan-Company, who served as a part of the 406th Expeditionary Fleet, he would survive the events of the Drop Site Massacre. He would go onto lead his forces against the Traitor Legions, most notably against the Death Guard forces commanded by First Captain Calas Typhon during the Battle of Perditus.Castrmen Orth - A Spearhead-Centurion of the Iron Hands Legion, he was one of its most decorated tank commanders and the youngest to hold such an esteemed rank. During the campaign on Isstvan V, Orth and his "Subjugator" armoured battalions were chosen to fight alongside the elite 1st Clan-Company, the Avernii. At the outset of the Traitors' treachery, he took charge of the Iron Hands' super-heavy tank spearhead and survived the destruction of his Fellblade Rashemion. He then commanded a Sicaran Battle Tank, the Black Sun, and continued to lead surviving Loyalist fast-attack armour elements against the Traitors' onslaught, successfully turning away a Traitor flanking manoeuvre. Orth's ultimate fate is unknown, but rumours persisted after the events of Isstvan V that though disfigured in the fighting, he had somehow survived the catastrophic events -- abandoning both his name and rank for his failure to protect his Primarch -- but not his burning desire for vengeance against the forces of the Warmaster Horus.Crius (Crusader Host) - Crius was the Lord of Clan Kadoran and First Vexilla of the Iron Hands Legion during the Great Crusade. He would later go on to serve as a part of an Astartes Honour Guard known as the Crusader Host based on Terra in the days just before the start of the Horus Heresy. With the outbreak of hostilities during the Isstvan III Atrocity, the Crusader Host was rounded up on orders from the Primarch Rogal Dorn, and sealed within the prison of Khangba Marwu. However, he was later freed on secret orders by Dorn, nearly 214 solar days after receiving word of Ferrus Manus' death on Isstvan V. He was charged by the Imperial Fists Primarch to undertake a special mission, to seek out and find any signs of his lost Iron Hands brethren, in the hope of bringing them back to Terra to aid in the defence of the Imperial Palace. While Crius and his companions did encounter some survivors of the X Legion on board of the Battle Barge Thetis, these Iron Hands vehemently refused to give up their quest for vengeance. Crius chose to abandon his mission and join the crew of the Thetis, leaving the Imperial Fists to bear this news to Rogal Dorn -- when Horus eventually reached the Throne World, the Thetis would answer the call of its defence. Crius' ultimate fate remains unknown.Eeron Kleve - A survivor of the Drop Site Massacre, he commanded an Iron Hands Battle Barge that was later rescued by a small force of White Scars, under Captain Timur Gantulga. Despite deferring his rank in mourning following the tragic death of his Primarch, Eeron would later help lead a ragtag group of Loyalists through the Ruinstorm and to the Ultramarines homeworld of Macragge, and eventually become a part of the Imperium Secundus. His ultimate fate is unknown.Kastigan Ulok (Obstinate) - Kastigan Ulok was an Iron Father of the X Legion, although it is unclear from which clan he came. Following the death of Ferrus Manus, Ulok became obsessed with the idea of killing the Warmaster Horus in retaliation for the death of his own gene-sire. Ulok's masterplan called for the capture and interrogation of one of the Warmaster's closest allies, the Dark Mechanicum-envoy known as Regulus. Blinded by his thirst for vengeance, the Iron Father had made use of the forbidden knowledge collectively known as the Keys of Hel to revive his fallen Battle-Brothers as implacable undead cybernetic warriors. Through early successes, Ulok followed Regulus' trace to the Khorion System and briefly joined forces with a detachment of Loyalist Salamanders to track down his prey. Upon learning that the Salamanders possessed powerful relics of war forged by the hands of their own Primarch but refused to use them, Iron Father Ulok turned his cohorts against the Salamanders, trying to capture their great Forge-ship, the Chalice of Fire. However, his plans failed due to the betrayal of the last living Space Marines on board the Obstinate. The final blow was ultimately delivered by Forgefather T'kell, when he ordered the Chalice of Fire to destroy the Obstinate at close range, despite himself still being on board the Obstinate. Iron Father Kastigan Ulok was presumably slain in the destruction of his vessel.Ahrem Gallikus (Obstinate) - Ahrem Gallikus was a Medusan Immortal of the X Legion which served under Iron Father Kastigan Ulok on board the Obstinate. By the time the Obstinate entered the Khorion System, Gallikus and the mysterious former Salamander known as "Saurian" was believed to be the only living Astartes still alive serving the Iron Father. The rest of the Obstinate 's crew had since perished and been brought back to a cybernetic semblance of life thanks to the forbidden knowledge of the Keys of Hel. Ulok's decision to use this forbidden knowledge sat ill at ease with Gallikus, which effectively regarded the Iron Father's decision as an act of treachery against their Primarch. Upon learning that Ulok considered to fight and even kill fellow Loyalists to gain an advantage in this gruesome war, Gallikus resolved himself to finally betray the Iron Father and thwart his efforts to seize the Chalice of Fire and the precious and equally powerful relics it contained. With the help of Saurian, Gallikus held his ground, buying Forgefather T'kell of the Salamanders Legion enough time to destroy the dark machine at the heart of the Obstinate which kept Ulok's minions "alive". Gallikus was slain by the cybernetic monstrosities he had once called brothers.Ares Voitek (Knight-Errant) - An Iron Father and Astartes of the Iron Hands, Voitek later joined the rapidly expanding force of the Knights-Errant. He would later be critically wounded aboard the Sons of Horus' flagship, the Vengeful Spirit, during a clandestine mission to seek out and assassinate the Warmaster Horus, following the Battle of Molech. He was recovered by his fellow Knights-Errant and put into a medically induced Sus-an coma. His ultimate fate is unknown.Ishmal Sulnar - Ishmal Sulnar was a commander of Clan Sorrgol who had suffered extensive wounds and had much of his body replaced with augmetic replacements. He was forced to move around with the aid of a makeshift wheelchair in the wake of the Drop Site Massacre after losing both of his legs, though he later received further bionics to restore his ability to walk.
