Lantern was the name of an energy pistol used by the Death Guard Primarch Mortarion during the Great Crusade.

Overview

The Lantern was a brass-coloured pistol created by the Shenlongi and was capable of firing powerful energy blasts that disintegrated living beings.^[1a]

Rather then sully his Manreaper with the blood of the Jorgall Xenos, Mortation instead made extensive use of the Lantern to kill his enemies on their world cylinder ship.^[1b]
