Covan Leorac
Covan Leorac was a Grey Knights Grand Master. [1]
He led the 7th Brotherhood as Representative to the Inquisition. Grand Master Leorac maintained the Chapter’s secret knowledge of the Inquisition, tomes of lore on the Inquisitors of each Ordo reaching back thousands of years. It is rare for individual battle-brothers to serve with the same Inquisitor more than once, lest either should learn too much of the other.[2]
Sometime after the formation of the Great Rift, Leorac and his Paladin retinue went missing while in the company of Lord Inquisitor Caleux. No answer about Corvan's fate has been forthcoming from the Inquisition, and tensions between the Grey Knights and Ordo Malleus have arisen over the issue.[3]

In the 5th Edition codex, Leorac was said to be killed on the world of Ghori, where he was struck down by two scores of Bloodletters during battle. It fell to Anval Thawn to hold the Daemons back until help arrived, for which Thawn was promoted to the rank of Justicar.[1]
