The Dru'Kashyl were an Iron Warriors warband[1a] led by Warsmith Bolaraphon from a network of fortified asteroids.[1b]

Overview

The name Dru'Kashyl was derived from an Olympian term - depending on the specific dialect of Olympian, the word may translate as "garden", "mountain", "labyrinth" or a term for a anvil used for forming blades; Bolaraphon referred to it as the Iron Field.[1b]

At the end of M41, the Dru'Kashyl was devastated by the formation of the Great Rift. Their asteroid belt was engulfed by the Warp Storm and their fleet was nearly entirely destroyed. Bolaraphon and the remains of the warband were able to escape aboard the Damnatio Memorae, the only surviving vessel.[1b]

During the Battle of Quradim, Bolaraphon led the warband in an ambitious plan to bait and kill Roboute Guilliman with Virus Bombs.[1d] While they were successful in detonating a single virus warhead, the entire warband was wiped out during the struggle including Warsmith Bolaraphon. Moreover, Guilliman managed to escape the world before it was engulfed by the pathogen.[1d]
