Titus (Space Marine)

Titus is a Captain of the Ultramarines Space Marine Chapter who has fought for the Imperium of Man for more than 150 Terran years. Although considered relatively young by the standards of the Astartes, he is already a decorated veteran of several major campaigns waged across the galaxy by his Chapter. His exploits have earned him a reputation as one of the greatest heroes of the Ultramarines, despite his relative youth.

History
Over the course of his long service, Titus has overcome countless opponents and suffered many wounds, both physical and psychological. In his early days as an Astartes, he struggled to overcome his own temper. Later, he survived the death of his entire squad at the hands of a Chaos Sorcerer; Titus killed this corrupted servant of the Ruinous Powers, but suffered grievous wounds in the course of the battle -- and some in the Chapter have questioned how he survived, intimating that he himself may have been touched by the corruption of Chaos.

Titus became an Ultramarines company commander when his former captain died in battle. He was by his mentor's side when he fell, and still feels the weight of taking over his mantle of command.
