Covonis
Covonis was a Psyker Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor, who banished the Daemon Prince Kholoth back to the Warp, after it had invaded the Agri World Loressa.[1]
Their battle occurred just after the Daemon had slaughtered one of Loressa's village, save for a 6 year old boy named Tyrus, who Kholoth had been torturing. Covonis would take the young Tyrus as his apprentice and teach him the ways of the Ordo Hereticus, as he continued his duties as an Inquisitor.[1]
Some time later, a reading of the Emperor's Tarot guided the two of them to Epsilon Regalis and this led Covonis to test the purity of the world's monarchy with the Trial by Holy Seal. The Trial exposed that Epsilon Regalis' monarchy was under the control of a Daemon, but when Covonis freed them from its grasp, this caused the Daemon Prince Kholoth to appear. Kholoth had been behind the monarchy's possession and, once freed into Realspace, the Daemon Prince killed Covonis, but it was then defeated by Tyrus, with the Inquisitor's Force Sword. In the aftermath of Covonis' death, Tyrus took his master's power armour and was later elevated to a full Inquisitor of the Ordo Hereticus.[1]
