It is my honour to serve the God-Emperor of Mankind, and fight the darkness that contaminates the Imperium.[5a]


Grendyl is a mysterious Inquisitor of the Ordo Hereticus.[1c]

Overview

Interrogator Melis Xallia of the Ordo Malleus and Grendyl are known to consider each other friends.[1d]

Moebian Domain

As an instrunment of the Inquisition, and no matter the risk to body and soul, I will purge the hive from top to bottom and cut out every scrap of darkness I find.[5d]


Grendyl believes that the corrupted fate of the Moebian Domain can be thwarted by an increase in military might and manpower. In pursuit of this end, he ordered multiple strike teams into the bowels of Tertium to attempt the retrieval of an archeotech cogitator, unbeknownst to the strike teams this was a Void Abacus, an ancient device assists in Warp navigation.[5f]

The Leman Russ Battle Tanks produced on Atoma Prime are also vital to his plans.[1b] There is also mention that he has a personal interest in the investigation of the different strains of Nurgle's blights and contagions found within Hive Tertium.[1a]

As an enemy, Grendyl is ruthless, resourceful, and bitterly vindictive.[5b] The cultists of Admonition fear his suspicion and are keen to keep any information of their cult and its activities from reaching the Inquisitor, at all costs.[1f]

The Inquisitor has a hidden sanctum somewhere within Tertium.[3b] Interogator Rannick also mentions that Grendyl has invested far too much time and energy into Atoma and would not simply Exterminatus the hive world after the Tertium Blight was confirmed to be of Warp influence.[1e]

Warband

Main article: Grendyl's Warband

The Inquisitor sent a small warband lead by Interrogator Rannick to the Moebian Domain. They are currently fighting against a Nurgle cult uprising combined with a traitor guardsmen invasion on Atoma Prime. The Inquisitor has called upon the Rogue Trader Emora Brahms to host his warband aboard her vessel, the Mourningstar, and aid in his mission in Hive Tertium.[1c]

Rejects

After Traitor Captain Wolfer's escape from the Tancred Bastion, Zola would gain approval from Grendyl to bolster the warband with newly press-ganged fighting force of Grendyl's warband are often referred to as "rejects". None of these new recruits have never seen Grendyl. During their mass initiation into Inquisitorial service when a recorded message from Grendyl was presented by a servitor chassis who's head was an inconsistent hololith face.[2]

Even with the bolstered numbers of local disposable assets, Grendyl's forces are stretched thin and struggling to cauterize every new erupting pustule emerging within the hive.[5b] The massed legions of Grendyl's rejects are more meat for the grinder. criminals, minor heretics, or simply those who found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time, rejects are given a second chance to serve the God-Emperor by joining the warband of an Inquisitor. Grendyl doesn't expect most, if any, of them to survive. His only interaction with those making up this disposable legion is through the servitor eqipt with a hololithic projector. Aside from the initial interaction, he might give bespoke mission briefings to teams for particularly important missions via this means of communication.[5c]
