Logan Grimnar

Logan Grimnar is one of the most belligerent and headstrong Chapter Masters in the Imperium, as well as perhaps the greatest Wolf Lord of all time. He remains loyal to the Emperor of Mankind and the great primarch of the Space Wolves Leman Russ until death, which will probably be a long time in coming

Logan's name is feared throughout the galaxy, as is the name of his axe Morkai, a fell weapon which he took from a Chaos champion that he defeated in battle and had it reforged by the chapters Iron Priests into the image of Morkai, the two headed wolf who guards the gates of the afterlife in Space Wolf mythos. Upon the back of his Terminator armour is the hide of a great wolf that he slew, and which he has worn with pride ever since.

Logan, or Old Wolf as he is known by his brethren, is an extremely powerful fighter, he will fight to the end in the name of the Emperor and is full of martial pride for him, and the rest of his beloved Space Wolves, believing them to be the greatest of all the Chapters of the Space Marines. He is believed to be one of the strongest warriors in the universe, greater than other Chapter Masters such as Commander Dante of the Blood Angels, Commander Azrael of the Dark Angels and even Lord Marneus Calgar of the feared Ultramarines.

He accepts no interference in the running of his chapter by outside authorities, and in his five hundred year reign he has led the Space Wolves willingly (and some would say joyfully) to many victories, crushing the enemies of the Imperium without hesitation. As a result of this, many of the Imperial Commanders within the Fenris system are grateful to be under the Old Wolf's watchful eye.

Logan Grimnar is a rarity amongst the Chapter Masters, for he is more respected and loved by the Commoners of the Imperium than he is feared, for he possesses an uncomprimising love and compassion towards the weak that actually overrides his duty to The Emperor of Man. Grimnar was the only Space Marine, and indeed Imperial Servant, to speak out against the cull of the civillians who survived the First Armageddon War, whom the inquisition deemed to corrupt to live having even seen the forces of Chaos.

Grimnar's hatred for the Inquisition was forever cemented when the said citizen's were unceremoniously sterilized and put into slave labor to reconstruct Armageddon for the next shipment of worker-civilians. Since then his chapter has waged many bloody wars against the Imperium to protect innocent victims of chaos from the barbaric persecution of the Inquisition, and it is only through his loyalty and exemplary conduct as a Loyal Warrior of the Emperor that the Space Wolves Chapter have not been decladed Excommunicatus Traitoris and marked for Extermination by the High Lords of Terra.

It is because of the Space Wolves' Wars of Compassion that the Inquisition have become less extreme in their methods, in the fear of rousing their unstoppable righteous-anger.
