Editing Characters of Battlefleet Gothic: Armada (section)

===Inquisitor Thadus Valconet Horst===

An [[Inquisitor]] of the Ordo Malleus, Horst is the second canonical character that Spire encounters in the campaign. Investigating rumors of Traitor activity in the lead up to the 12th Black Crusade, Horst gets stuck in the Gothic Sector when the Warp Storms isolate it from the rest of the Imperium. From that point on, he works hard to counter Abaddon's strategies, with mixed results.

In canon, Horst continues his chase for the [[Chaos]] artifact called for the '''Eye of Night''' after the Gothic War, but he and the [[Grey Knights]] squad accompanying him get killed in the process. His quest eventually gets completed by [[Inquisitor Greyfax|Inquisitor Katarinya Grefax]] centuries later, who retrieves the artifact under the orders of [[Roboute Guilliman|the Lord Commander of the Imperium]].
