Khotus Meffiel
Khotus Meffiel was a member of the Blood Angels Legion, who was among its forces that took part in the Siege of Terra.[1]
Near the end of the Siege, he fought to defend the Imperial Palace's Sanctum Imperialis, but was among the Imperium's forces left stranded after the closing of the Eternity Gate. Now having no means to escape or receive reinforcements, the remaining Imperials fought on against hordes of Traitor Legions, Heretics, Mutants and Daemons. During these battles, Meffiel stood beside Zhintas Khan of the White Scars, and together they destroyed a Sons of Horus Dreadnought. Afterwards, the Blood Angel said the Imperials left defending the Imperial Palace outside of the Eternity Gate had become Life-Sellers: their only remaining goal now was to sell their lives dearly and see how many Traitors they could kill before death claimed them. The two later separated, but the term and Meffiel's words had a great effect on Zhintas. It filled him with pride and zeal, which caused the Khan to vow to claim a higher kill tally, before he met his end.[1]
