Grosslyn
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Grosslyn was a Sergeant of the Vervun Primary, who served under Captain Olin Fencer as his second.[1]
When Vervunhive was invaded by the hordes of Ferrozoica, Fencer's unit was stationed outside the hive's main walls. Despite being exposed to the Zoican artillery, Fencer ordered his men, in accordance with standard Vervun emergency protocol, to erect defences in preparation for the Zoicans' coming infantry assault. Sure enough, when the bombardment ceased, the Zoicans led an infantry advance through the area that Fencer's troops were stationed in. Grosslyn, along with a number of troopers and conscripts, managed to hold the eastern end of their lines for a time, until he was shot by the enemy while trying to assist Jada next to him.[1]
