Egil Stormcaller
Egil Stormcaller, also known as the Storm-Eater, is a Space Wolves Rune Priest who joined a strike force commanded by the Grey Hunter Valgard Twice-Slain as it was sent on a mission for their Chapter[1a]. Disaster struck though, when their Strike Cruiser emerged from the Warp near the Imperium world Kanak and they were ambushed by a Word Bearers Murder Class Cruiser. Their Strike Cruiser was soon sent falling onto Kanak in pieces[1b] and Karl was among those who survived its crash[1a]. As they emerged from the Cruiser's wreckage, the survivors discovered that Kanak had been successfully invaded by a Word Bearers Warband led by the Dark Apostle Oriax the Persuader, whose forces began mercilessly hunting the Space Wolves down. In the ensuing battles that followed, Valgard quickly organised Stormcaller and the other survivors of the strike force he found and began taking the fight to the Word Bearers. As the group now fights across the fallen Imperium world, Stormcaller serves as a trusted adviser to Valgard and fights ferociously against any traitors the Space Wolves come across.[1c]
