An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Santor hailed from the Avernii Clan on the X Legion's homeworld of Medusa. He served as the First Captain of the elite 1st Company of the Iron Hands Legion during the majority of the Great Crusade in the late 30th and early 31st Millennia. A stoic and devout warrior, Ferrus Manus valued the sage wisdom and advice of his favoured son Gabriel, who helped rein in his Primarch's fiery temper. In this capacity, Santor had also been appointed to serve as Equerry to the Primarch. First Captain Santor did not possess the phenomenal temper of his Primarch but he was as harsh and unyielding as the bionics in his limbs. He also had the honour of leading Manus' personal bodyguard of staunch praetorians, the Morlocks. As with most things, Ferrus Manus did not have the time or inclination for patience.

  • Santor hailed from the Avernii Clan on the X Legion's homeworld of Medusa. He served as the First Captain of the elite 1st Company of the Iron Hands Legion during the majority of the Great Crusade in the late 30th and early 31st Millennia. A stoic and devout warrior, Ferrus Manus valued the sage wisdom and advice of his favoured son Gabriel, who helped rein in his Primarch's fiery temper. In this capacity, Santor had also been appointed to serve as Equerry to the Primarch. First Captain Santor did not possess the phenomenal temper of his Primarch but he was as harsh and unyielding as the bionics in his limbs. He also had the honour of leading Manus' personal bodyguard of staunch praetorians, the Morlocks. As with most things, Ferrus Manus did not have the time or inclination for patience. Santor was the only one who could make his volatile Primarch temperate. During his time in the X Legion, Santor took part in many of the Iron Hands' most notable Imperial Compliance actions during the Great Crusade. The First Captain of the Iron Hands Legion was a warrior of many contradictions. Though he was Manus' most favoured son, enforcing the will of his Primarch upon the warriors of the X Legion, he did not necessarily adhere to the same beliefs as those of his fellow Iron Hands, especially in regards to the Legion's so-called Creed of Iron, which espoused the virtues of the technological over the biological. In principal, he agreed that flesh was weak, but he believed that as warriors of the Legiones Astartes it was their purpose to shoulder the burden and promote strength through the demonstration of strength to the mortal warriors of the Imperial Army that often fought alongside the Iron Hands during an Imperial Compliance action. Santor also believed that as warriors, when the Great Crusade eventually came to an end, the Astartes would need to find new vocations or be put to use as little more than grand statues adorning the Imperial Palace on Terra. He postulated that perhaps they would form ceremonial honour guards for their defunct warlords. This sentiment was not shared amongst the majority of his fellow Morlock Clan Company Captains, as many of them believed that with an entire galaxy to bring to heel, and untold billions of weak and fragile men to reforge, they suspected it would be a long time before the Crusade was truly over. Many believed that, in truth, the preservation of the newborn Imperium of Man would require constant war.
