Editing Characters of Battlefleet Gothic: Armada (section)

===Prologue Characters===

'''[[Creed|Lord Castellan Ursakar E. Creed]]'''

General of the Cadian 8th Regiment, now the supreme commander of all the defenders on [[Cadia]]. A man of few words, the Lord Castellan is still an inspirational figure to the men and women defending the fortress world. Initially in favor of evacuating the world, meeting Magos Dominus [[Belisarius Cawl]] changed his mind. As a result he moved the remaining defenders to the Elysion Pylon fields in a final stand to buy the Magos time to work on the Pylons.


'''Wolf Lord Sven Bloodhowl'''

One of the two [[Wolf Lord]]s of the [[Space Wolves]] [[Chapter]] on Cadia for its defense, Sven leads a force of Space Marines from various mauled Chapter forces, [[Imperial Guard]] volunteers, and [[Skitarii]] cohorts, in an attempt to delay the advance of [[Abaddon]]'s fleet. Using the [[Battle-barge]] ''Firemane's Fang'', Sven's forces board the [[Blackstone Fortress]] ''Will of Eternity'', and try to sabotage it from the inside.

Thanks to his efforts, the shields of the Fortress went down, which gave the [[Imperial Fists]] Fortress-Monastery [[The Phalanx|Phalanx]] the opening it needed to land the killing blow.


'''Iron Priest Firemaw'''

The [[Space Wolves]] [[Iron Priest]] left in command of the ''Firemane's Fang'' as Sven Bloodhowl led his boarding attack on the ''Will of Eternity''. Much like he promised, he gave the Battle-barge a good death by taking as many Black Fleet ships with it before it fell.


'''Brother-Captain Tor Garadon'''

Captain of the 3rd Company, and in overall command of the [[Imperial Fists]] stationed on [[The Phalanx]] during the Battle of Cadia. He orders the venerable star fort's charge into the midst of the Chaos fleet surrounding the planet to destroy the [[Blackstone Fortress]]. Needless to say it succeeds. Later he moves the Phalanx to orbit around the Elysion Pylon fields to provide support to the defenders there.


'''Commodore Trevaux'''

Officer-in-charge of the Phalanx and other Imperial Fists fleet assets, Trevaux is obviously concerned with whether or not the Fortress-Monastery would be up to taking on the Blackstone Fortress. Naturally Garadon vetoed his more cautious suggestions in favor of [[Awesome|charging the Phalanx straight into the midst of the Chaos Fleet, and destroying everything that got in the the way to the ''Will of Eternity'']].


'''Admiral Harbride'''

A commander of a [[Imperial Navy Cruiser|Cruiser]] squadron tasked with scouting out the location of the Chaos Fleet for Tor Garadon. Manages to survive the encounter with the vanguard of said fleet, and bring news of its location to the Phalanx.


'''[[Belisarius Cawl|Archmagos Belisarius Cawl]]'''

Magos Dominus of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]], Cawl was on an exploratory dig at Eriad IV, where an important discovery there forces him to pay Cadia a visit. He convinces Creed to ''not'' evacuate the planet, and defend the Elysion Pylon fields while he tried to coax the latter back into working order. Thanks to a certain [[Trazyn the Infinite|Necron]], he succeeds, and ''almost'' manages to close the [[Eye of Terror]].


'''[[Trazyn the Infinite|Archeovist Trazyn the Infinite of Solemnace]]'''

A [[Necron Lord]] with a [[Blood Ravens|collection fetish]], Trazyn decided to aid the defense of Cadia on a whim. He helped reactivate the Null Array on Cadia in time to protect it from the Blackstone Fortress' Warp Beam, and then aided Cawl in reactivating the Pylons. It worked. Almost.

Trazyn reappears later, usually related to stymying (or aiding, in the case of the Necron campaign) the Nepheru Dynasty, [[Troll|who he regards as barely better than savages]].
