Sammael
Sammael is the present and 348th Master of the Ravenwing[2], the 2nd company of the Dark Angels Space Marines Chapter. Sammael's promotion to his current office came more than a century ago. As the previous master of the Ravenwing, Gideon, lay dying after an attack by the Chaos Titan Traitorous Ire, the old master declared Sammael to succeed him. Sammael's first action as master of the Ravenwing came as he lead his company in the invasion of Rastabal and leading assaults on rebel forces during the Fourth Quadrant Rebellion. He then led the 2nd Company in the war against the Ork Empire of Charadon in the Invasion of Rynn's World. After his Thunderhawk was shot down by Ork forces, Sammael staged the only recorded successful aerial-drop separation maneuver, flying out of the gunship on his jetbike.
Known to be as bold as he is reckless, Sammael's audacity is well-noted. Noentheless, his reign as the Ravenwing Master has been unusually long and successful and his boldness has benefited him on numerous occasions, such as dodging between Battlesuits to cut the Ethereal Sha Aux'Phan in twain.[2] In battle he has access to Corvex, the only known remaining Imperial Jetbike, but sometimes also rides a Land Speeder known as Sableclaw.[2]
