Editing Behemoth Guard (section)

==Characters==

===Forge-Tyrant Mengthes Kraal===
Mengthes Kraal is First of the fell XXIInd Grand Company of the Vth House of the Behemoth Guard, a dread group known as The Dreamers in the Deep.
Among a legion known for its foul creations, Kraal is still something of a legend. Even during the crusade, Kraal skirted the edge of toleration, with grotesque servitors and a fondness for unleashing hunting packs of Vorax, kept as his prized hounds, which he would follow from the copula of his extensively augmented Malcador, Meilora.
Though his tinkering with combat wetware aroused concern, it was likely not until the Xana compliance action and the tutelage of the Scorpion Prophet that Kraal began to tinker with the warp directly. In the years to come, the hellforges would be known for their daemon engines, cybernetica and mechanical horrors hybridized with the baleful power of the warp.
Kraal leads his mechanical hosts to this day, clad in robes with the burning eyes of the night and wearing the nine-horned Behemoth mask cortex controller that Gengrat had gifted him on the blackened fields of Sanctissima.

He is invested with the Holy See of Xana II following the Heresy and produces all sorts of nasty robots with his buddies Markus Krom and the Scorpion Prophet.
The location of his See is fortuitous, or perhaps it was intentional on Gengrat's part. Either way, Kraal serves ably as embassador to the Bloodhounds. Many of the great Lords of that legion have artificer Vorax hunting packs and when the Hunting Grounds go to war, Kraal often joins them, eager to unleash his own prized hounds.

===Kalvas Elsophar, Chief Librarian and Forge Tyrant of the IXth Grand Company of the IIIrd House===

Kalvas Elsophar, like so many other Behemoth Guard was recruited from the mist-shrouded world of Terrodyne. He proved as skilled with the arcane arts of the warp as with command and soon rose to a position of prominence, at times augmenting the durability of his brethren and their tanks, at others, divining the outcome of battles. He initiated the practice of planning campaigns in a manifold, allowing him to inload data as it came in and exload situation reports directly to his commanders. Like many other senior members of the legion, he was close with his Primarch, who displayed a level of paternal affection and pride that astonished many outside the legion, and it is theorized that the Changer of Ways approached the Primarch through the medium of Kalvas Elsophar.
It is unknown when Elsophar began to treat with the foul powers of the warp, but once introduced, perhaps during the Xana Compliance, they proved intoxicating.
When Imperial records next clearly sight Kalvas Elsophar, it is in the Sol System, his fleet having been tasked with the Luna Compliance. It is likely that Luna was the first time the infamous Abomination Engines the Behemoth Guard were unleashed, where fragmentary pict-captures record the stuff of nightmares crafted from immaterium. Wheels within wheels within wheels crowned by a nine-faced flaming beast's heads duel with genewrought dragons even as coiling tongues of metal that writhe in the shape of winged serpents, their wings covered in eyes tear Imperial fightercraft from the sky.
Kalvas Elsophar roams the galaxy to this day, unleashing hordes of daemons and his newest creations in his wake.

===Orban Rehovezzar of Azazel===
Orban Rehovezzar
Orban Rehovezzar is a siege master of the Behemoth Guard. I'm thinking he's one of the more recent figures in the legion, being selected as a Forge Attendant when his predecessor fell in battle. He's lord of Azazel, a fiefdom which guards the Dark Imperium border with Temepestus. During the 10th crusade, he expands his holdings to include Stygies and Zhao-Arkkad. His Bombardment Arks are massive, slab sided affairs, crowned with command and sighting ziggurats. He produces Ordinatus Engines and recently has become fascinated with Eldar Distortion Rift technologies. Rumor abounds that after numerous campaigns against the Eldar Empire, he has finally obtained what he needs and is currently on Azazel, crafting a monstrous bombard to crack the walls of New Constantine.

His creations typically feature decorative bull motifs, the Sigil of the Aleph-Tzor, a massive bull with curling ram's horns.

===Forge Lord Kjell Maximus===
Recruited from the Stralsian Highlands south of the Yndonesic Block on Terra, Maximus was emblematic of the early legion.
He and his force served as outriders to the crusade and frequently operated for long periods without resupply. With the native ingenuity of his legion and the cultural precedents of the Rad-warriors of Stralsia in mind, he and many others like him began to tinker and customize their vehicles and equipment, at first out of necessity, but then as a matter of pride. After the legion was reunited with Gengrat, Lord Maximus served as one of the Primarch's forge attendants.
