Varnus



"We have weathered fiercer storms than this! Hold the line, damn you. You will not embarrass the Emperor today by dying!"

Chaplain Varnus was the leader of the Ultramarines bodyguard force on Lorn V that was detailed with the task of protecting and delivering the Titan's Princeps and crew to the site of the Titan "Dominatus". On their way there, the Chaos Space Marine forces under the command of lord Crull shot down the Thunderhawk which was transporting them. Varnus and the handful of surviving Space Marines held off waves of oncoming Chaos forces, sending an S.O.S message that was received by General Sturnn In response, Sturnn assembled his Imperial Guard forces to go on a search and rescue mission deep behind enemy lines.

A notable fact is that Chaplain Varnus singlehandedly defeated a Bloodthirster in combat.
