Remus Ventanus

Remus Ventanus was a Captain of the 4th Company, 1st Chapter of the Ultramarines Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras during the 30th and early 31st Millennia. He would go on to play a pivotal role during the Battle of Calth, the treacherous attack by the traitorous Word Bearers Legion during the opening years of Warmaster Horus' rebellion. His deeds would also earn him great renown during the subsequent Calth Underworld War as the Ultramarines survivors would continue rooting out their traitorous former kin of the XVIIth Legion for nearly a decade.

History
Captain of the 4th Company, 1st Chapter during the Horus Heresy, Remus Ventanus was central to the Legion's fight-back on the surface of Calth during the Ultramarines' darkest moment. At the moment of the destruction of Calth Veridian Anchor, Ventanus was inspecting loading operations at Numinus Port, and in the anarchic hours that followed, he rallied the 4th and warriors from other shattered formations into a force able to mount a fierce resistance against the Traitors. It was during this early phase that Ventanus linked up with Magos of Analyticae Tawren, the most senior surviving Mechanicum adept and the only Tech-Priest able to perceive a means of regaining control of the Calth defence grid. Thanks to Ventanus's leadership and courage, the magos completed her crucial task. The Captain's duties did not end with his victories at Leptius Numinus and the Lanshear Guildhall, for he fought on even as the bulk of the Ultramarines forces on the surface were evacuated at the order of his Primarch. He led the counter-attack against the disordered Word Bearers, and as the extent of the wounds to the Veridia star became evident, Ventanus led his forces and as many civilians as he could contact into the subterranean arcologies. His deeds throughout the subsequent Calth Underworld War led to him becoming known as the Saviour of Calth.

Traits & Personality
The hallmark of Remus Ventanus' command was the phenomenal resolution with which he committed his will and blood to any strategy he had decided upon in battle, no matter the odds or the opposition, and his ability to inspire those in his service to do the same. During the murderous perfidy of the Battle of Calth, it was this factor, above all else, which allowed the forces under his command to endure and triumph.
