Black Templars

Malphas was a Black Templars Chaplain.^[1]

History

In his four hundred years of service to his Chapter, Malphas has seen many good deeds as well as acts of Heresy. The Chaplain saw such acts with the T'au Empire, who claimed to be peaceful yet slaughtered anyone who did not join them. Malphas would make it his mission to prove the Xenos were wolves in sheep's clothing and launched a Crusade against the T'au. None of the Xenos were safe from his wrath and the Chaplain's Crusade forces continued his war against the T'au Empire, as part^[1] of the Dark Crusade's^[2] Mont'shi Campaign.^[3] However Malphas would later die in battle with the T'au and it is not known what became of his Crusade forces afterwards.^[1]
