The Dead Man's Hand is a gauntlet owned by the Blood Angels Chapter, that was once worn by Captain Erasmus Tycho.[1]

The Captain still wore the gauntlet when he fell to the Black Rage while fighting in the Third War for Armageddon. Tycho then joined his Chapter's Death Company and led a massed assault of his cursed Battle Brothers on an Ork-held breach in Hive Tempestora's walls. It was heavily defended by the Xenos and the Captain was killed while using the Dead Man's Hand to tear out the throat of an Ork Warboss.[1]
