Kline
| This article is about the traitorous PDF officer; for the General, see Kline (General). |
Lord Kline was an officer of the planetary militia of Quintus.[1a]
Biography
When Quintus was subjugated by an Alpha Legion warband led by the Daemon Prince Kernax Voldorius, Kline was amongst those in the Quintus PDF to surrender to the Traitor Marines and abandon the Imperium in favour of serving Voldorius.[1a] Kline was responsible for mustering the militia forces stationed in the capital city, Mankarra.[1b]
Later, the 3rd Companies of the White Scars and Raven Guard arrived to liberate Quintus. In the aftermath of the Space Marines' successful initial assault on Mankarra, Voldorius's militia officers turned on each other, trying to deflect the blame for the incident. Kline and Lord Colonel Morkis were the last officers to die; Kline was able to strangle Morkis, but Morkis's death-spasms were sufficient to pull the trigger of his laspistol and kill Kline in turn.[1b]
