Gartrafal
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Gartrafal was an Astropath, who served in the Koronus Expanse and was noted for his Psychic abilities as a prognostic.[1]
He famously died in 633.M41 on Footfall, during a fit of screaming madness. Before the Astropath did, however, Gartrafal babbled about "dark worms beneath a green-eyed star" the "sea of molten gold," and other half-formed and paradoxical terrors. A heavily adulterated transcript of his last words made the rounds as a Penthrift Dreadful that foretold the doom of the entire Koronus Expanse. Numerous sources have supposed that Gartrafal's "green-eyed star" is a reference to the blighted world of Concanid, located in Koronus' Unbeholden Reaches.[1]
