Mantes
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Mantes was a Volpone Sergeant of the Astra Militarum.[1]
At the time of the Siege of Vervunhive (part of the greater Sabbat Worlds Crusade) Mantes served directly under Major Culcis of the Volpone's elite Tenth Brigade. Mantes was part of a Volpone force sent to reinforce Vervunhive after it was attacked by the fallen Hive Ferrozoica. In the first Zoican storm of the city's walls, the Volpone were charged with holding the Sondar Gate. Mantes sacrificed himself to destroy a Zoican siege engine with tank mines.[1]
