Duriel (Dark Angels)
Duriel was the Captain of the Dark Angels Legion's 12th Order during the Great Crusade.[1a]
History
He was also the senior Forge-wright and Ironbringer[1c] of the Ironwing, who was taught in the Terran forges of Narodnya and Manraga. After he suffered grievous wounds in battle, Duriel was installed within the command chair of the Invincible Reason and was given the additional title of Castellan. This meant that he had overall command of the warship when his Primarch, Lion El'Jonson, was not aboard. Duriel was among the Legion's forces their Primarch led while investigating the unrest and strange disappearances occurring around Muspel.[1a]
This later proved to be caused by the Khrave and Duriel took part in the Dark Angels' campaign against the invading Xenos. He later sacrificed himself, by using a Nuclear Weapon to stop a Khrave-infected Titan.[1c]
