Gotfret de Montbard[1b]

Gotfret de Montbard is a Crimson Cardinals Crusader, who served in an Imperial Crusade that was sent into an uncharted area of Segmentum Pacificus, in order to find an ancient apocalyptic artefact.[1b]

In doing so, the Crusade was prophesied to bring forth an angel of flame, a manifestation of the Emperor's wrath that would deliver burning fury to Mankind's enemies. Unfortunately, the Crusade was beset by countless foes and was cut apart before it reached its destination. Montbard was left the only survivor, but still pressed on in order to complete the Crusade's mission. Whether by luck or fate, however, he was later discovered by the Rogue Trader Neyam Shai Murad and taken aboard her warship, Ultimatum. Montbard now serves as part of the Rogue Trader's crew as she travels through the Segmentum Pacificus, albeit with disparate motives.[1b]
