Ortan Leidis
Ortan Leidis is a despicable[1] Khorne Chaos Space Marine[2], who was once a member of the Angels of the Grail Chapter.[1]
By the Era Indomitus, Leidis was part of the warband of Arkhor. He was not satisfied with his lot however, and aspired to join the World Eaters, obtain the Butcher's Nails, and become a true Khorne Berzerker.[1a] To that end, Leidis and his traitorous brothers journeyed to the Conqueror and hoped to meet with Angron, who was said to have returned. Instead, they found Kossolax, and Leidis became a de facto member of The Foresworn.[1b]
Leidis was amongst the few Foresworn who survived the Grey Knights trap on Hyades, but was badly wounded during the battle. When he awoke he had finally been implanted by the Butcher's Nails and achieved his dream of becoming a true Khorne Berzerker. However instead of bliss and glory, Leidis found only pain and a loss of control as he killed his faithful Serf and slid into madness.[1c]
