Tarchese Malabreux
Malabreux was the Captain of the Sons of Horus Legion's Catulan Reaver Squad, during the later years of the Siege of Terra.[1]
History
He took command after the death of their prior leaders, Kalus Ekaddon and DeRall. In the aftermath of the failed assault on the Saturnine Gate, fissures began to grow between those of the Legion who fell under the sway of First Captain Ezekyle Abaddon and those who stayed true to their Primarch, Horus. Malabreux was among those who not only followed Horus, but also worshiped the Primarch as if he was one of the Chaos Gods.[1]
During the final stages of the Siege, Malabreux led an assault that captured Rogal Dorn's own command center, the Bhab Bastion. Carrying the bloody banner of the fortress, by this point he was ignoring Abaddon's orders.[2]
After the defeat of Horus, Malabreux was able to evacuate back into orbit with the Vengeful Spirit and was part of the retreat from the Sol System under Abaddon. Abaddon remarked that Malabreux seemed almost burnt out by the dark powers that had taken hold of him, and was unaware he was constantly weeping.[3]
