This article is about the the Dark Angels Champion. For other uses of Balthasar, see Balthasar (disambiguation). |
Balthasar Xaphan was a Dark Angels Champion who was among his Chapter's forces that were sent to end an uprising in the Artemis System.[1]
The Space Wolves also took part in ending the uprising and this became the first time in many years that the two Chapters fought together. Shortly after they restored order to the Artemis System, the two Chapters then held their traditional contest that re-enacted the duel fought by their Primarchs and Xaphan was chosen to represent the Dark Angels. However, he was inadvertently killed by the Space Wolf Ranulf the Strong during the duel and blood was spilled by both Chapters in the ensuing fracas.[1]
