History

Spoiler!
The following paragraphs contain spoilers for: Space Marine II

They were among the Imperial forces that defended[1b] the Recidious System, after it was invaded by a Leviathan Splinter Fleet.[1c] Kill Team Primus later answered[1b] Archmagos Nozick Beta-12's plea for aid on Kadaku, after the Xenos threatened the secretive Project Aurora, that Nozick was developing. Because of the Archmagos' call for restrain in defending Kadaku, in order to prevent damaging the Project's facility,[1a] Kill Team Primus was charged with deploying a Virus Bomb to kill the Tyranids.[1b]

However the Kill-Team's Corvus Blackstar was attacked by a swarm of Gargoyles, as they neared the Orbital Launcher Facility that would be used to launch the Virus Bomb. In the battle that followed, Beren was able to hold onto the bomb, as most of Kill Team Primus was thrown from the gunship before it crashed. While the Black Templar was able to remain with the gunship, though, the others were scattered in the area around the Facility. Without the aid of his fellow Primus members, Beren was eventually overwhelmed by the Tyranids, as he fought near the ruins of the Blackstar, and died holding the Virus Bomb. The Black Templar was later found by the Kill-Team's leader, the Black Shield Demetrian Titus, who recovered the bomb and told Beren he had honoured the Imperium with his devotion. Titus would soon be the only member of Kill Team Primus that still lived, but the Black Shield was able to successfully complete their mission.[1b]
