Kormus Hexlo
Kormus Hexlo is an Alpha Legion Marine, who survived the Horus Heresy and went on to perfect his Legion's methods of warfare, following his Primarch Alpharius's death. Unlike many of the Legion however, Hexlo believes that joining Horus, during the Heresy, was a mistake and has so far avoided the fell touch of the Chaos Gods; which has corrupted and driven many of his brethren insane. Despite his beliefs, Hexlo continues to carry out the last order his Primarch gave to him, but he does so on his own, by working as a lone operative. In order to achieve Alpharius' order, Hexlo has put various plans into motion, but recently one of these plans has interfered with one conducted by the corrupted Alpha Legion Chaos Lord, Koyn Jankus. After communicating with each other, it was decided that, according to the rules of their Legion, their conflict would be decided by a Shadow War on the world Eskabar. It would be a battle, between the forces they could call upon to aid them; with the only rule being, they could not take part in the battle themselves. As the battle begins, Hexlo hopes not only to win, so he can move on to complete the task given to him by Alpharius, but also to prove that the corrupting power of Chaos, is truly anathema to the Alpha Legion's style of war.[1]
