Editing Fabrice Diallo (section)

==Leadership of the Angels Imperious==

His new command was based on Kouralia, a Water World in [[the Markian Pact]].  The close proximity of [[Ciban IV]], the Void Angels' homeworld, allowed Diallo and Mai Dac Kien to often consult with one another on critical decisions.  Their close relationship helped to maintain fraternal ties between the Fifth Legion's Successor Chapters.  In order to deflect criticisms that these ties meant that Fifth Legion would exist ''de facto'', Diallo broke with the Forge World [[Al-Sherar]].  He instead looked to the smaller but closer Forge World [[Ghalhal]].  Ties with an old ally of the Markian Pact helped to bolster the popularity of the Angels Imperious on their recruiting worlds.

As a Terran-born Space Marine, Fabrice Diallo was already accounted as a veteran commander by the time of the Reformation.  In the centuries that followed, his peers gradually passed away or were interred in Dreadnoughts, such that by the time of the [[Second Vetrovnak Incursion]] Diallo was one of the very oldest and most experienced warriors in the entire Imperium.  His appointment as ''Martial Primaris'' for the duration of the emergency was unsurprising and effective.  Diallo employed his moral authority to rally the defenders of mankind and his military genius to direct them.  He was greatly assisted in his crusades by intelligence gathered by [[Chapter Sigma]] and interpreted by the Inquisitor Vera Vinter, which gave Imperial psykers the ability to sense Vetrovnak fleet movements and diminished the invader's advantage of surprise.
