Leith Rhudiger is the Tempestor Prime of the 46th Zetic Tygers and has earned great renown in the War of Beasts, for his relentless persecution of the Ork menace on Vigilus.[1]

He has personally led over fifty combat missions against Ork raiding parties, with Rhudiger's most famous act occurring during the Battle of Catos Decima. There, the Tempestor Prime and the Tygers breached the hull of a gigantic Ork scrap-titan and planted timed explosives within it, before making their escape. The subsequent explosions not only destroyed the scrap-titan, but also wiped out several hundred Orks and won the Imperial High Command time to reinforce the beleaguered Catos spires.[1]
