Navar Hef was a Lieutenant[1a] of the Raven Guard during the Horus Heresy. A new recruit to the Raven Guard inducted after the Drop Site Massacre, Navar Hef was one of the first experimental Raptor warriors. Navar Hef suffered from the mutations that plagued the Raptors, growing physical claws. Nonetheless he remained loyal to Corax and fought bravely in the Battle of Ravendelve. Later, Hef was made a Lieutenant and led the surviving Raptors despite their mutations.[2]
During the many years of fighting Horus from the shadows, the badly mutated Hef continued his war, seeking an end to his misery through death in combat. However at some point he came across Space Wolves forces under Arvan Woundweaver, which had been dispatched by Malcador the Sigillite to monitor Corax. After coming across the badly mutated Raptors, a crisis erupted between the two sides. Fearing they would be condemned to destruction and damn their Primarch with them, Navar Hef and his Raptors massacred the Space Wolves. He covered up the incident, but revealed his actions to Corax shortly before the Battle of Yarant. Seeking redemption by dying in Corax's last stand on Yarant, ultimately Navar Hef had his end once again denied when his Primarch refused to throw their lives away and evacuated the planet.[3a]
He would finally meet his end in the cells of Deliverance, on the Red Level, after the end of the Heresy. Too badly mutated to be of use on the battlefields of the Scouring, Corax fulfilled his promise made to the Word Bearer sorcerer Azor Nathrakin during the Battle of Constanix II to "destroy every warp-spawned, chaos-tainted creature in the galaxy before he died."[3b]
