Belial (which is a Hebrew idiom for a "worthless man", a name which could not be more ironic) has a career that would fill volumes if the Dark Angels kept such records, due to <s>most of it being about hunting the [[Fallen Angels]]</s> A LIFETIME OF LOYAL SERVICE TO THE [[God-Emperor of Mankind|EMPEROR]]--EXTRA EMPHASIS ON THE LOYAL PART--BEING ITS OWN REWARD.

Raised on the Feudal World of '''Bregundia''', born the son of the town magister, he was forbidden from joining the tournaments of hopeful children, competing to earn a place in the Dark Angels when the recruiters came. So he did what any sensible person would do: completely ignore his father and steal the armour of a [[Knight]] to compete in the games, where he kicked everyone's asses. Then, when the Dark Angels' chaplain ordered him to remove his helmet and reveal himself, Belial refused (for fear of upsetting his father... WAY to go kid!) and declared he would rather fight the chaplain instead. Surprisingly, the duel lasted for SEVEN minutes before Belial inevitably lost. An [[Mary Sue|AMAZING]] feat regardless, as Belial was ELEVEN YEARS OLD whilst the [[Chaplain]] was, well, a Space Marine Chaplain. Thus was a new recruit secured for the Dark Angels anyway. Years later when Belial had completed his induction to the chapter and was promoted to full battle brother, his first act was to challenge the chaplain to a rematch, which he won in under a minute. (That being said, the Chaplain probably went easy on him since even the Dark Angels, except [[Asmodai]], don't murder their aspirants for no reason.)

Belial steadily raised his way through the ranks and secured himself a place in the [[Deathwing]] where he was [[Brother-Captain]] [[Azrael]]'s second in command when he was in charge of the Deathwing. After the death of Supreme Grand Master '''Naberius''', as 1st Captain, Azrael assumed command of the entire chapter needed to appoint someone to the vacant captaincy position, so he asked Belial if he had any ambitions to command, where Belial replied that he was content enough to serve, therefore Azrael elevated some dude called Lanval to the Master of the Deathwing and granted him the '''Sword of Silence''' ''(the sword meant to honour the [[Mary Sue|Chapter's greatest warrior]])'' which meant that Belial remained a [[Brother-Sergeant]].

Presumably Lanval didn't keep Belial on as second in command like Azrael did and within a few years Belial would move out of the Deathwing and take control of a squad in the Third Company. There his squad were renowned as ruthless [[Emperor's Children|perfectionists]]; where every missed bolter shot or parried blow is seen as a failure equal to losing the entire battle. Among his most famous exploits were the destruction of the [[Black Crusade]] of Furion, personally killing the [[Chaos Lord]] of [[Khorne]] in single combat, earning his promotion to [[Brother-Captain|Company Master]] of the Third Company and the '''Sword of Silence''' ''(guess Lanval died or gave it up)'', being given to him by [[Azrael]].

Eventually, the Third Company was on layover at Piscina IV after [[the Rock]] had picked up load of aspirants from neighboring Piscina V when [[WAAAGH]] [[Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka|Ghazghkull]] showed up and proceed to lay waste to everything it could find. For two weeks Belial and the Third Company managed to hold off the Beast of [[Armageddon]] until the Rock returned with the rest of the Chapter. It was by unanimous decision that Belial would come back to the Deathwing and be promoted to its Grand Master due to the death of the previous Grand Master, his reputation as a harsh and perfecting taskmaster convinced the Inner Circle that no-one else was better suited for the job.
