Space Wolves - Heresy Era Personnel: Leman Russ - Leman Russ was the primarch of the Space Wolves who led his Legion to uncounted victories during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy. After the Heresy, Russ disappeared during the Feast of the Emperor's Ascension 197 standard years after the Emperor was entombed within the Golden Throne. Overcome by a mysterious vision, Russ gathered his Wolf Guard, save for the youngest, Bjorn the Fell-Handed, and departed The Fang. It is believed by some Astartes amongst the Space Wolves that Russ left Fenris and journeyed into the Eye of Terror.Enoch Rathvin - Enoch Rathvin was the Commander of the VI Legion during the early years of the Great Crusade. It was during the Compliance of "1-122," known as Delsvaan, that the VI Legion quickly garnered a reputation as a ferocious, unforgiving, but steadfastly loyal Legion. Following their reunification with their Primarch Leman Russ upon Fenris, the increasingly unstable Enoch Rathvin met his fate during the xenocidal campaign against the Orks within the region known as the Wheel of Fire, where he was crushed in the hydraulic claws of an Ork hell crawler while leading a suicidal charge on the world of Xyat.Bjorn the Fell-Handed - Bjorn the Fell-Handed is the oldest Venerable Dreadnought in the Imperium. Bjorn fought alongside Leman Russ during the Horus Heresy and was the only member of Russ' retinue left behind by the Primarch when he disappeared. He became the first Great Wolf of the Chapter after Russ disappeared and led the Space Wolves on the first Great Hunt, the Chapter's epic but fruitless quest to find its lost Primarch, and it was he who reluctantly gave the order to cease the hunt after he was mortally wounded within the Eye of Terror. He believes that Russ will one day return to their Chapter, and he plans on being there to meet the Primarch in person.Wolf Lord Gunnar Gunnhilt, "Shieldbearer of Russ" - Gunnar Gunnhilt, also remembered by his surname of "Lord Gunn" was a mighty Wolf Lord and the Jarl of Onn, the VIth Legion's First Great Company. As Shieldbearer of his primarch he was the second-in-command of the entire Legion, a solemn duty he carried out with great honour and pride. Gunnar Gunnhilt was justly famed for his aptitude in naval warfare although his tactics always relied upon delievering Space Wolves boarding parties to other vessels and destroy them from within or possibly capture them. From the bridge of his flagship, the mighty Ragnarok, Lord Gunn had proven his worth countless time, but his singlemindedness and sense of honour would see him fail during the fatefull battle in the Alaxxes Nebula. Harried, hunted and cornered by the superior fleet of the Alpha Legion, Gunnhilt's tactics failed to turn the tables on their enemy and his frustration upon this almost led him to disobey the orders of his Primarch. Harbouring considerable ill-will against Bjorn the Fell-Handed whom he considered a rival for Russ' favours, Gunnar Gunnhilt tried to use the Primarch's seclusion to bring the fleet about and engage the Alpha Legion in a glorious, if doomed, last charge. Returning just in the right moment, Russ countermanded his Shieldbearer's orders -- which would have seen the end of the VI Legion -- but understanding that Gunnhilt's heart could not be swayed, he released Gunnar from his oath of servitude. Thus liberated, Gunnar Gunnhilt returned to his ship and ordered his warrior to abandon it and seek refuge onboard the Hrafnkel before sacrificing the Ragnarok on the Alpha Legion's guns. Such was his skills that he destroyed countless smaller vessels and hindered the entire enemy fleet from further pursuing the Space Wolves. With the Ragnarok ablaze from prow to stern, Gunnar ordered it to ram the biggest enemy ship he could locate, tricking it into full-stop which made it for a perfect target. Lord Gunnar Gunnhilt perished onboard the Ragnarok as its engines drove it and its final victim deeper into the corrosive gas-clouds of the Alaxxes Nebula.Wolf Lord Ogvai Ogvai Helmschrot - Jarl of Tra, the 3rd Company during the Great Crusade and nominal Commander of the Space Wolves Legion after the Battle of the Alaxxes Nebula, for Leman Russ had chosen to depart for Terra and seek the council of Malcador the Sigilite.Wolf Lord Hvarl Red-Blade, "The Ravager," "The Headsman of Koltok" - Jarl of For, the 4th Great Company during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras, Havarl Red-Blade had a reputation as a dourly humourous and often choleric-temperamental warrior, whose greatest skills was to be found in the din of war and whose battlefield cunning was something of a legend. Master of his Great Company  for more than five decades at the time of the Razing of Prospero, he was a veteran warlord as renowned for his scourging tactics as he was for encouraging the taking of heads from the enemy fallen as a form of competition among his warriors. Each gory trophy was to be accompanied by a tale of how it was taken around the Great Company's fires after battle, and with a grand tale, the head-taker was held of little account and the warrior scorned, and so were his Space Wolves that pushed towards greater reaches of valour. Though considered volatile and perhaps a little insane by his fellow Jarls and Thegns, Hvarl's often striking insights into a foe's plans and motivations made his voice one that was still well-respected in the Einherjar - his Legion's war council - while in battle, his sharp-witted savagery was counted on by his Primarch to leave nothing alive in his Great Company's wake.Wolf Lord Amlodhi Skarssen Skarssensson - Jarl of Fyf, the 5th Company during the Great Crusade. He fought alongside the Thousand Sons Legion on Heliosa during the Ark Reach Campaign. Later, participated in the Burning of Prospero.Wolf Lord Sturgard Joriksson - Jarl of Tra-tra, the 9th Great Company of the Space Wolves Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras. He took part in the Razing of Prosopero.Wolf Lord Varald Helsdawn - Jarl of Elleve, the 11th Great Company of the Space Wolves Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras. He took part in the Razing of Prosopero.Wolf Lord Oki, "Scarred" - Jarl of Tolv and successor of Laughing Jaurmag, who was sent to Terra before the Razing of Prospero campaign.Wolf Lord "Laughing" Jaurmag - Jarl of Tolv, the 12th Great Company of the Space Wolves Legion at the times of the Great Crusade, Chapter Master of the 'Cry of the Grieving Dragon', known also as 'The Shield-gnawers'. Laughing Jaurmag renounced his position as Jarl to accompany a lone squad of Space Wolves, Howl of the Hearthworld, to Terra to watch over the Primarch Rogal Dorn, a task that was perceived as a dishonnour and equal to banishment. Jaurmag got his nickname for his appearant lack of sense of humor for he seldomly participated in the raukous laughter of the Space Wolves.Wolf Lord Hjalmar Stormfist - Hjalmar Stormfist was the Jarl of a large force of the 13th Great Company that emerged from the Eye of Terror during the 13th Black Crusade. He fought during several notable campaigns of the Great Crusade, and disappeared alongside a sizeable force of the 13th Great Company during the Burning of Prospero. He was one of the original "Wolf Brothers" of the Dekk-Tra, having served as one of Leman Russ' warriors before the coming of the Allfather to Fenris during the Great Crusade. He was one of the handful of veteran warriors to survive the implantation process in spite of his age, becoming Dekk-Tra's Standard Bearer. He later reemerged, ten millennia later, as Jarl of a sizable force of the 13th Company from the Eye of Terror during the 13th Black Crusade. But his presence and the fact the he and the rest of his fellow Space Wolves bore ancient marks of Power Armour that had salvaged bits of battle-plate from fallen Chaos Space Marines provoked Inquisitor Lord Karamazov to order a strike force of Sisters of Battle to attack the Space Wolves. In the ensuing battle, Stormfist valiantly fought against the Battle-Sisters, but ultimately met his fate when he was torn limb-from-limb by a Penitent Engine.Wolf Lord Bulveye, "Axeman of Russ" - Bulveye, known as the "Old Wolf," was a Jarl of Dekk-Tra, the Space Wolves lost 13th Great Company. He had fought alongside the Primarch Leman Russ before the coming of the All-father to their homeworld of Fenris. During the Great Crusade he served as Huscarl of Jorin Bloodhowl, the former Jarl of Dekk-Tra. During the Dulan Campaign, when two of the Dekk-Tra's Astartes fell to the Curse of the Wulven, Bulveye secretly tasked both Wolf Priest Ulbrandr Crowhame and Rune Priest Leif Hemligjaga with finding a cure for this genetic affliction. Sometime later, he succeeded Jorin Bloodhowl as Jarl of Dekk-Tra, and commanded the Space Wolves' 954th Expeditionary Fleet. He later fought during the Burning of Prospero, and at the end of the battle disappeared with a large force of the Dekk-Tra into the Warp in pursuit of surviving Thousand Sons Legionaries. Since the dawn of the Imperium, Bulveye had been the Great Company's Jarl, leading the 13th Great Company from Prospero, to the untold horrors of the Eye of Terror, and back into the present age of the late 41st Millennium. Bulveye and a warband of the 13th Company aided a young Ragnar Blackmane, who was serving as a member of the Wolfblade, in the recovery of the Spear of Russ from the Thousand Sons Chaos Sorcerer Madox, staging a distraction to allow Ragnar and his companions to reach the stronghold of the Thousand Sons while most of the Traitor forces were engaged with the 13th Company. Bulveye spoke of Russ, as only one who knew him in life could, and together with his warriors spoke of ten thousand years of struggle within the Eye of Terror, fighting the Forces of Chaos and the daemonic beasts within as they searched for Magnus the Red.Wolf Lord Jorin Bloodhowl, "Shieldbearer of Russ" - Ancient contradictory accounts state that it was Jorin Bloodhowl who led the fabled 13th Great Company -- given command by none other than the Primarch, Leman Russ himself. Whether or not this is fact, the truth remains unknown due to the passage of time, missing lore and and contradictory accounts. Though Jorin Bloodhowl may well be a Wolf Lord of the 13th Great Company, it is unknown if he is the senior Wolf Lord, and therefore the true leader of this Great Company. Despite contradictory accounts, Jorin Bloodhowl was indeed once a Jarl of Dekk-Tra. A native Fenrisian, he served as one of the first Einherjar to the formidable warlord Leman, King of the Russ, the lost Primarch and rightful leader of the VI Legion of Astartes before the coming of the Allfather to their world during the Great Crusade. These formidable warriors served as an honour guard to Leman Russ, having been reavers and sword-brothers to their fearsome lord. He would become one of the 'Old Guard', one of the first Fenrisians to be inducted into the VI Legion, and despite warnings from both the Emperor and the Mechanicum, would go on to survive the dangerous process of becoming a Legiones Astartes. Two score of the Einherjar managed to survive and Leman Russ formed them in a new, elite company of warriors. The other warriors of the VI Legion referred to these warriors as the "Greybeards". But the members of this company called themselves the "Wolf Brothers." Jorin joined the other Greybeards, forming the core cadre of the newly created Dekk-Tra (13th) Great Company, who were considered the most honourable Astartes of the Legion and the closest to their Primarch. Jarl Jorin Bloodhowl would go on to serve during many campaigns of the Great Crusade, most notably the Dulan Campaign. At some point before the Burning of Prospero he would pass on leadership of Dekk-Tra to his Huscarl Bulveye.Valief Thunderbrow The first Jarl of Dekk-Tra, Valief Thunderbrow was one of the "Old Guard," an original member of the 13th Great Company who fought alongside Leman Russ before the coming of the All-father to Fenris during the Great Crusade. He was a part of the initial intake of warriors from Fenris that survived the implantation process to become an Astartes despite his age, and he joined Dekk-Tra, becoming its first Jarl. His ultimate fate is unknown, but at some point during the Great Crusade he was succeeded by Jorin Bloodhowl as Jarl.Wolf Lord Hirkon Grail - Ancient contradictory accounts also state that it was Hirkon Grail who led the fabled 13th Great Company. But once again, the truth cannot be ascertained with any certainty. He is more than likely one of the remaining Wolf Lords of the original 13th Great Company, when it was at its original Chapter-sized strength.Wolf Lord Garm - Garm is one of the first and greatest of the Wolf Lords who rose to fight alongside Leman Russ during the Great Crusade. Garm fell in battle on the world that carries his name to defend the Space Wolves' Primarch. He was honoured with a shrine-tomb on that world called the Shrine of Garm's Skull. The Spear of Russ was entrusted to the Shrine of Garm's Skull and worked into the ornate sarcophagus of Garm himself. It is said that the shrine still carries a measure of the Primarch's power and many of the Space Wolves who make the pilgrimage to the shrine leave changed in mind, heart and soul. The shrine has a permanent garrison of Space Wolves to protect it from looters and invaders. It is a great honour within the Chapter to be selected to serve for a time as an honour guard for the shrine.Varagyr Thegn Ortheln of the Blood-Worm - One of the hundred-strong Varagyr retinue which accompanied the Wolf King during the Razing of Prospero and the fighting at Tizca, Ortheln saw combat throughout the anomalous event known as the "Impossible Battle." After-action reports filed with the Divisio Militaris and even a stanza in the Fenrisian "Saga of Prospero" list Ortheln among the dead, yet in the campaigns following the Prosperine Crusade, he appears very much alive and active in the ranks of the 1st Great Company. According to several eye witnesses and the oral saga, Ortheln was slain in the last few moments of the battle, one of the few Space Wolves to have breached the walls of the Pyramid of Photep, locked in combat with members of the Thousand Sons' Scarab Occult. This confusing anomaly has been put down to the influence of the Thousand Sons sorcery that occluded the fleet's sensors and warped the weather, though as the Horus Heresy erupted, Ortheln is present at a surprising number of incidents involving aberrant Warp activity.Terminator Thegn Thorwal King's-Bane - Thorwal King's-Bane served in the 12th Great Company during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras. He was one of the very few fortunate individuals who received the rare Tartaros Pattern Terminator Armour just before the outbreak of the Horus Heresy. He was a part of the Prosperine Censure Host and took part in the epic Battle of Tizca. The 12th was known for its bloody predilection for engaging in firefights at cut-throat range, having earned the epithet the "Shield Gnawers" for its belligerence and impetuous assaults. He was a part of the body of warriors who were deemed ideal for the combat trials of the new armour, with the first such action occurring in the final year of the 30th Millennium, 999.M30. The fighting on Xantriss proved both the capabilities of the armour as well as the bloodthirsty nature of the 12th Great Company. Initially a disciplinary action targeting a battalion of rogue Imperial Army troops, it escalated into a full-scale purge conducted across the remote feral moon the battalion had claimed for its own, culminating with the execution of the Imperial Army colonel turned king. The battle, fought predominantly through the subterranean passageways of the inhospitable moon, established the Tartaros Pattern's reputation for a high degree of manoeuvrability compared to previous patterns of Tactical Dreadnought Armour.Speaker of the Dead Ulbrandr Crowhame - Ulbrandr was a Wolf Priest of Dekk-Tra Great Company during the Great Crusade. When two Legionaries succumbed to the Curse of the Wulfen during the Dulan Campaign, Ulbrandr examined the bodies of the Astartes through dissection but was unable to discern an adequate physiological explanation for their condition. Both he and Rune Priest Leif Hemligjaga were tasked by Huscarl Bulveye with finding a cure for this genetic deficiency.Caster of Runes Torvald - Rune Priest of the 13th Great Company. Known as Torvald, the Reaver of Red Kraken Hold. This mighty Son of Russ was one of the Space Wolves' first Rune Priests. He fought by the side of Russ himself during the Great Crusade and had served as Wolf Lord Bulveye's lieutenant since that bygone era.Caster of Runes Asmund - Asmund was a Rune Priest who fought in Dekk-Tra Great Company as a part of the Censure Host during the Fall of Prospero.Caster of Runes Leif Hemligjaga - Leif Hemligjaga was a Rune Priest of Dekk-Tra Great Company during the Great Crusade. When two Legionaries succumbed to the Curse of the Wulfen during the Dulan Campaign, Leif examined the bodies of the Astartes and determined they were free of maleficarum. Both he and Wolf Priest Ulbrandr Crowhame were tasked by Huscarl Bulveye with finding a cure for this genetic deficiency. Like the rest of Dekk-Tra, Leif would later disappear during the Fall of Prospero while battling against the Thousand Sons. He emerged ten Terran millennia later as part of the 13th Great Company force led by Jarl Hjalmar Stormfist from the Eye of Terror during the 13th Black Crusade. His presence, along with the fact that he and his fellow Space Wolves were wearing salvaged battle-plate from Chaos Space Marines, provoked Inquisitor Lord Karamazov into ordering a strike force of Sisters of Battle to attack them.Caster of Runes Priest Ohthere Wyrdmake - Rune Priest of the Space Wolves during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy. Ohthere befriended Ahriman of the Thousand Sons in an attempt to learn about the sorcerous tenets of the Legion and spoke against the Thousand Sons on that basis during the Council of Nikea.Caster of Runes Kva "Who-is-Divided" - Kva was a powerful and experienced Rune Priest who had the ear of Leman Russ himself during the time of the Horus Heresy, and especially during the fateful battle in the Alaxxes Nebula. Far too old to be made a Space Marine, the broken form of Kva was augmented as best as could be done to allow him to follow and guide his Primarch amongst the stars. Kva was always accompanied by his two guardians, the Runewardens, two twin Astartes that were also his trainees in the matters of the runes. It would be Kva who would capture Ormand and thus uncover the Dark Angels' presence in the Alaxxes Nebula. It was also Kva that finally convinced Leman Russ to take Bjorn the Fell-Handed into his inner circle.Priest of Iron Slejek Blademaker - Slejek Blademaker was the Space Wolves' Master of Forges and senior Iron Priest at the time of the Horus Heresy. As such, his domains were the forge-levels of Hrafnkels -- the Space Wolves' flagship -- where he would toil to arm and equip the Astartes of the Vlka Fenryka. He is remembered as a talented weaponmaker and a pragmatic person whose dry voice was prompt to give into laughter. He remains famed for having refused to interrupt his works to forge a new weapon for Bjorn the Fell-Handed, even mocking him for his lack of patience and telling him to get in line like the others who had need of his crafts.Haraal - A Wolf Guard of Jarl Jorin Bloodfang during the Great Crusade. He was one of two Astartes that succumbed to the Curse of the Wulfen during the Ynniu Void Battle of the Dulan Campaign.Lars – One of Bulveye's Wolf Guard, he was described as a fearsome warrior. He was decapitated by a Dark Eldar lord whilst fighting on the world of Antimon during the Great Crusade.Geigor Fell-Hand - Geigor Fell-Hand was one of the "Old Guard," an original member of the 13th Great Company who fought alongside Leman Russ before the coming of the Allfather to Fenris during the Great Crusade. He was a part of the initial intake of warriors from Fenris that survived the implantation process to become an Astartes despite his age, and he joined Dekk-Tra. He quickly rose through the ranks to become the Pack Thegn of Dekk-Tra. Known for his hatred of sorcery, he was given command of Dekk-Tra's Blooded Claws during the Burning of Prospero. Though he cautioned his Jarl, Bulveye, on the follies of following the Thousand Sons through the mystical portals they utilised to travel across Prospero, his warnings fell on deaf ears.Watch Pack Leader Faffnr Bludbroder - Hailing from the Sesc (6th) Great Company, Pack Master Bludbroder was despatched to the Realms of Ultramar to observe the Ultramarines Primarch Roboute Guilliman, under the orders of Malcador the Sigillite himself, in the wake of the events of the Razing of Prospero. Departing on the zeta-class courier ship Waning Crescent, Bludbroder and his Watch Pack successfully arrived at Macragge, but by that time the Horus Heresy had erupted into a massive galaxy-wide conflict. Following the Battle of Calth and the Word Bearers Legion's maleficent summoning of the massive Warp Storm known as the Ruinstorm, the Realms of Ultramar were cut off from the rest of the Imperium. Unable to firmly establish whether or not the Emperor of Mankind still lived, or if Terra and the Imperium of Man had fallen to the Traitors, Guilliman instituted the ultimate contingency plan -- to create a second Imperium in order to ensure the survival of the Emperor's dream of a united Mankind, known as the Imperium Secundus. The XIII Legion had discovered the means to help navigate their voidships through the Warp without the beacon of the Astronomican through the use of recently discovered xenos-technology known as the Pharos on the world of Sotha. The artificial light from the  beacon on Sotha guided many vessels, both civilian and Legiones Astartes, to the Realms of Ultramar. Upon their arrival following the Thramas Crusade, the Dark Angels Legion was one such Imperial military force to arrive. During the welcome parade for the I Legion, led by the Primarch Lion El'Jonson in the van, the Primarch was confronted by Bludbroder, who demanded that the Lion honour the ritual duel that had become standard operating procedure between Legions, since the emergence of a rivalry between the Dark Angels and the Space Wolves during the Dulan Campaign. Bludbroder attempted to strike the Lion with his Frost Axe, and very nearly succeeded in landing his strike, but was soundly defeated by the Lion. Later on, it was Bludbroder and his Pack who protected Guillman's adopted human mother, Tarasha Euten, and battled the psychotic Night Lords Primarch Konrad Curze when he was let loose upon Macragge. Though Bludbroder was grievously wounded by Curze, he managed to survive. After recovering from his wounds, Bludbroder was later seen keeping vigil over both the Lion and Guilliman as they discussed how best to run Curze to ground and capture him.Watch Pack Leader Kargir - Kargir was the Sergeant of the 19th Squad of Tolv (the 12th Great Company), then later of the Howl of the Hearthworld, the most veteran squad of Tolv. Kargir was a remnant of a forgotten age, the last of the first generation of Fenrisians to have become a squad-commander and he fought hard to remain so. When Leman Russ selected Kargir's squad as a Watch Pack, to act as bodyguards and watchers over Rogal Dorn, the Primarch of the Imperial Fists Legion, Kargir voiced his discontent with this decision but dared not disobey an order from his own primarch.Watch Pack Leader Helik Redknife - Despatched to the Blood Angels fleet to keep watch on the Primarch Sanguinius for signs of treachery or deviancy following the Council of Nikaea, Captain Redknife and his command linked up with the Blood Angels just before the Signus Campaign. During the final epic battle on Signus Prime while fighting against a vast horde of daemons, Redknife and his command were inadvertently slain by the berserker warriors of Blood Angels Captain Nassir Amit and his warriors of the 5th Company when they fell into the depths of the Red Thirst and set upon Redknife and his Wolves, slaughtering all of them. Following the battle, Amit submitted himself to First Captain Raldoron for punishment. He revealed what had occurred to the Space Wolves, but Azkaellon, the Commander of the Sanguinary Guard, revealed to Amit that he had already lied to their Primarch about how the Space Wolves had died. Enraged, Amit nearly came to blows with the Sanguinary Guard Commander, but Azkaellon explained that if their lord knew the truth, he would blame himself for what had happened. He would then tell his brother, the Wolf King, the truth. This would risk the bonds between their two Legions at a time when unity was sorely needed.Watch Pack Leader Theodore Strong-grin - Theodore served as Einherjar Champion of the Nine Eastern Tribes, formerly of Tra (the 3rd Great Company). His Watch Pack was returning to Fenris from a campaign when they received orders to divert and rendezvous with the Night Lords fleet. While some Packs were hand-picked for their assignment it is possible Pack Theodore was chosen for the simple expedience of their location. If so, it was such ill-fate that sent the Pack to their certain deaths. After arriving aboard the Night Lords capital ship, the Nightfall, the Space Wolves were ordered to depart their shuttle Rauha with no weapons. They met with a large delegation of Night Lords, led by their dark Primarch Konrad Curze. Instead of complying with the Watch Pack's Emperor-given mandate, the Watch Pack were treacherously set upon by the Traitor Astartes, who drug them down by the weight of their numbers and slew them with blades and fists. Watch Pack Leader Theodore was kept alive after his Packmates were slain, his body cut and tortured by the Night Haunter and sent back to the Sol System, barely alive, aboard their shuttle as a message to the Sigillite and the Loyalists. Theodore was recovered by the Knight-Errant Ison, who chose to do everything in his power to keep Theodore alive and restore his body without internment in a Dreadnought sarcophagus. It is possible Theodore survived and joined the ranks of the burgeoning Knights-Errant.Watch Pack Leader Torbjorn - Torbjorn formerly served as the Wolf Guard Company Champion of For (the 4th Great Company). He was later assigned to lead a Watch Pack to the Alpha Legion and stand as wardens or executioners over Alpharius. However, after making contact with the XX Legion's fleet, the Space Wolves were betrayed. When they met with the "Primarch," who in actuality was an Alpha Legion officer who was standing-in for his Primarch as a proxy, Torbjorn suspected the other Legion's treacherous intent and stuck down the warrior he believed to be Alpharius. With their treachery revealed, Trobjorn and his Pack were hunted down and slain by the traitorous Alpha Legion.Watch Pack Leader Arvan Woundweaver - With the treachery of four Primarchs confirmed at the beginning of the dark days known as the Horus Heresy, Leman Russ and Malcador the Sigilite decided to despatch several squads of "honour guards" of the fiercest warriors the Space Wolves could offer to ensure the remaining Primarchs' loyalties. Arvan Woundweaver was one of those tasked with this mission, he and his Pack charged by the Wolf King  to join the XIX Legion and watch over Corvus Corax; however, Woundweaver and his Pack could not locate the stealthy Primarch for five long standard years. The VI Legion had established a series of well-hidden and well-defended outposts in several dead systems that were being used as armouries and it was during one of their resupply stops that the enemy reared its ugly head in the form of a Cruiser of the Heretic Sons of Horus, the Warmaster's own scum. With three members of his squad choosing this ill-fated moment to fall prey to the Curse of the Wulfen, Woundweaver had no other choice than to put them down and seclude himself in the outpost's central keep. Sending his abandoned voidship on an automated course as a bottle into a fathomless ocean, the seven remaining Space Wolves entrenched themselves in the station's keep and battled the Sons of Horus who had landed their own troops. Fortunately for Woundweaver, his drifting ship was discovered a few solar weeks later by the Fearless, a Raven Guard Light Cruiser commanded by Lieutenant Navar Hef of the Raptors-contingent. Arvan Woundweaver's saga was abruptly cut short when the plan he had devised to slay the besieging Sons of Horus backfired. He and his squad are believed to have become locked down in combat and thus unable to evacuate the compound before its Plasma Reactor went critical and vaporised the Traitors and Space Wolves alike.Pack Leader Dagmar - One of Bulveye's Pack leaders in the 13th Company.Pack Leader Mjollnir - Leader of a Wolf Guard Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Thorlief - Leader of a Wolf Guard Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Skirnir - Leader of a Wolf Guard Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Guntor - Pack Leader of the Fenris Bloods during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Kolbyr - Pack Leader of a Hunter Support Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Sigfasti - Pack Leader of a Seeker Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Thorbrand - Pack Leader of a Hunter Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Ragvard - Pack Leader of a Sky Claw Assault Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Horgun - Leader of a Blood Claw Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Jorlund - Pack Leader of a Hunter Support Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Garan - Leader of a Blood Claw Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Jortan - Leader of a Stalker Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Davyn - Leader of a Fire Team during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Ansuarr - Leader of a Blood Claw Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Leiknir - Leader of a Wulfen Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Tammikk - Leader of a Wulfen Pack during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Ornulfer - Pack Leader of a Hunter Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Aldrim - Pack Leader of a Hunter Squad during the Horus Heresy.Pack Leader Leiknir - Leader of a Wulfen Pack during the Horus Heresy.Patrekr the Great Fanged - Hero of the Space Wolves during the Horus Heresy.Bavdir - Bavdir was one of the  "Old Guard," an original member of the 13th Great Company who fought alongside Leman Russ before the coming of the Allfather to Fenris during the Great Crusade. He was a part of the initial intake of warriors from Fenris that survived the implantation process to become a Legiones Astartes despite his age, and joined Dekk-Tra. Bavdir fought during the Burning of Prospero.Dagmar - Dagmar was one of the "Old Guard," the initial intake of warriors of Fenris that joined Dekk-Tra during the Great Crusade. He fought during the Burning of Prospero. He later emerged ten millennia later, serving as one of Jarl Bulveye's Pack leaders in Dekk-Tra.Halvdan Bale-eye - Halvdan Bale-eye was one of the  "Old Guard," an original member of the 13th Great Company who fought alongside Leman Russ before the coming of the Allfather to Fenris during the Great Crusade. He was a part of the initial intake of warriors from Fenris that survived the implantation process to become a Legiones Astartes despite his age, and joined Dekk-Tra. In the early days of the Great Crusade, Halvdan was Bulveye's chief lieutenant. He was a grim, brooding figure even at the best of times. Halvdan's left eye socket was seamed and uneven, the bone broken by a sword stroke that had put out the eye as well. He survived the terrible wound and had disdained an eye-patch afterwards, using the empty socket to unnerve foes and shipmates alike during his raiding days on Fenris. When he became a Space Marine he had it replaced with the unblinking lens of an augmetic eye. Halvdan fought during the Burning of Prospero. It is not known if he lived past the days of the Horus Heresy.Jorllon - Jorllon was one of the "Old Guard," the initial intake of warriors of Fenris that joined Dekk-Tra during the Great Crusade. He fought during the Burning of Prospero.Jurgen - One of the "Old Guard," the initial intake of warriors of Fenris that joined Dekk-Tra during the Great Crusade, Jurgen was a lean and rangy Wolf Brother of that Great Company. He wore his black hair cropped short and had adopted the Terran tradition of shaving his chin, earning no small amount of jibes from his pack-mates. He fought during the Burning of Prospero.Krodus - Krodus was one of the "Old Guard," the initial intake of warriors of Fenris that joined Dekk-Tra during the Great Crusade. He fought during the Burning of Prospero.Vangun - Vangun was one of the "Old Guard," the initial intake of warriors of Fenris that joined Dekk-Tra during the Great Crusade. He fought during the Burning of Prospero.Othgar - Commander of the Haukr, one of six sub-Warp interceptors of Grimur Red Iron's hunt.Ranulf – Ranulf is a Space Wolves Stormbird pilot, and one of Bulveye's pack-mates.Veteran Legionary Isem - Serving in Thelm's Warband in Twa (the 2nd Great Company), Veteran Legionary Isem was known to have taken part in the Razing of Prospero. By this time, Twa bore a reputation for vicious efficiency in war, and much of that Great Company was engaged in campaigns against Hrud migration fleets in the galactic southwest at the time of the Prospero campaign, where their skills were put to bloody work. Thus, of its nominal strength of 10,000, only 800 Astartes were able to join Leman Russ' crusade, largely operating as reconnaissance and line breaker formations in the tangled streets of Old Tizca. Many of Twa were still equipped with the older Mark II Crusade Pattern Power Armour of the early Great Crusade, eschewing the option to requisition newer wargear in favour of the armour in which they had conquered a galaxy. These suits were much modified from the base pattern, having been in service for nearly two standard centuries in some of the oldest examples, and many bore exotic decorations and honour markings as evidence of their long service.Legionary Hruga- Legionary Hruga, known as the Karic of the Norn's Warband, served in For-twa (8th Great Company) during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy. He was a part of the Prosperine Censure Host that took part in the Razing of Prospero in 004.M31. Legionary Hruga and the bulk of the Eighth Great Company spent the earliest stages of the fighting on Prospero engaged in combat with Imperial Army elements at the Palatinate Mansions. Unlike the fighting against the lightly equipped Spireguard infantry, the troops entrenched within the Mansions' walls had access to the full panoply of the Great Crusade's vast armoury and proved more serious opposition for the reavers of For-twa. Hruga and the other members of his warband were tasked with the reduction of enemy self-propelled guns and armour, a mission complicated by the relative lack of heavy support weaponry among For-twa. Utilising the ornamental hedgerows, culverts and canals of the Mansions' gardens to assault enemy positions, Hruga and his companions used Melta Bombs and other improvised explosives to disable and cripple the Medusas and the ironically named Leman Russ battle tanks arrayed against them.Long Fang Freyr - A Space Wolves Long Fang during the Horus Heresy.Eldthursar Har Skrinn - A Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought, Har Skrinn, known as the Flame Lord of the Sons of Ymir, was an Ancient of the infamous Dekk-tra (13th Great Company). Also known as the Sons of Muspel and the Destroyers of Worlds, the Eldthursar are the most violent of the Sons of Ymir, as the Space Wolves style their Dreadnought cadres. Most often these warriors have suffered terribly before being placed within the Dreadnought's sarcophagus and the pain of their death drives them to bouts of killing mania when left conscious. Rarely are they awoken unless the Legion requires the utter annihilation of the enemy, for these war engines are not subtle weapons. Eldthursar Skrinn was destroyed during the fighting on Prospero when his berserk fury drove him to stand against the immense power of the Canis Vertex, yet even after his metal body was laid low by the Titan, the Eldthursar continued to twitch and claw impotently at the churning heavens, his fury unquenched even in his final death.Hrimthursar Aesir - Legion Dreadnought in service during the Horus Heresy.Hrimthursar Arn Therod - A Legion Leviathan Pattern Siege Dreadnought known as the Ice Lord of the Sons of Ymir, Hrimthursar Arn Therod was an Ancient of For (the 4th Great Company) during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras. Renowned among even the bitter ranks of the Hrimthursar for his grim demeanour and unremitting wrath, Therod was among those present for the sundering of the Acropolis Magna's gates and the slaughter of all within. The systematic slaughter of the Prosperine Guard, whose weapons proved little more than annoyances to Therod's Dreadnought shell, continued for some solar hours before the Ancient deemed his work complete.Hrimthursar Ymir - Legion Dreadnought in service during the Horus Heresy.
