Editing Forces of the Emperor's Nightmare (section)

==Chief Apothecary Lucius Eidelan==

Lucius Eidelan is the leader of the Apothecarion, holding the rank of Chief Apothecary for a long time now. Like his contemporaries across the myriad chapters of the Astartes in the galaxy Eidelan and his subordinates are charged with seeing to the health of the Nightmares and ensuring their progenoid glands are returned to the chapter at the time of their demise.

Eidelan is an anomaly within the cursed ranks of the Emperor's Nightmares in that his Catalepsean Node is fully functional, lending him a perfect circadian rhythm and garnering the envy of a great deal of the chapter. Unbeknownst to most Eidelan mirrors this envy, feeling cheated of the advanced perception and speed the lengthy waking periods of his Chapter result in.

This is an interesting coincidence, for Eidelan has a unique job amongst other Chief Apothecaries; it is his duty to look after the Sleepless, to protect themselves and their brothers from their own ferocious delusion. Eidelan pursues this vocation eagerly, studying his dreamless charges with a relentless enthusiasm bordering upon obsession. It has gotten to the point that Eidelan sees the Sleepless as his exclusive responsibility, and as such is known to march to battle by their side or simply watching them. Taking an active role in battle is not a common occurance for a Chief Apothecary, and this garners Eidelan significant respect from his chapter.
