Editing Barabas Dantioch (section)

===Great Crusade===
Back in the heyday of the Great Crusade, He was [[Perturabo|Daddy's]] favourite, being promoted to Warsmith at some point. Things were going pretty good, until Dantioch was put in charge of a grand company to take on a migratory Xenos race known as the [[Hrud]]. Apparently the Hrud had an "entropy field" that caused things to age at an incredible pace, causing equipment to rust to unusable levels, and bunkers to collapse under their own weight, and even nearby non-Hrud living beings to rapidly age and even die from old age. This proved to be a great hindrance for an equipment-heavy Legion like the Iron Warriors (or any Legion for that matter) and the Hrud took half a Grand Company and a subsector with them before most of their species met the business end of the Iron Warriors' bolters, plasma cannons, and missile launchers, and leaving Dantioch extremely aged (despite his "only" being 200 years old, which is still in the prime of life for an uninjured Astartes) and with a borderline-decrepit body due to the rapidity of his cell decay. This either indicates Astartes can die of old age (or at least be so weakened by it they might as well be) or that the Hrud's entropic field worked too quickly for Astartes biology to keep up with. After that single poor mark on an otherwise stellar career record (and also because he dared suggest that simply throwing more men at a given problem until it budged wasn't the smartest thing to do), Perturabo pulled a [[Lion El'Johnson]] and [[Luther]]ed his ass to garrison duty. Banished to an outpost that was far enough into the Imperium to ''definitely not'' get any action, Dantioch spent his time on his magnum opus, a citadel that would make even his own Primarch squeal with delight and jealousy both. This culminated in Schadenhold: [[Awesome|A subterranean fortress located on a Death World, suspended upside down over a lake of promethium.]]
