Oswyck
Oswyck was a Black Templars Castellan, who was a part of the Heimdel Crusade. It currently serves within Indomitus Crusade Fleet Secundus' Battle Group Erastus.[1]
History
He was among the Battle Group's forces that invaded Vastoros, to free it from the control of the Witch-Empress. However the powerful Rogue Psyker's abilities allowed her to control the world's entire population and she was aided by several Chaos Warbands. When the Battle Group's invasion began, Oswyck led the portion of the Heimdel Crusade that was charged with stopping the rampage of the monstrous Nightmare Engine. It was located within Vastoros' Jolvon Wilds, but the Engine was protected by the Black Legion. As the Crusade and other Imperial forces charged into the Wilds' twisted forests, they dealt with ambushes and deadly traps that were placed by the Legion. However they pushed on and finally reached the Nightmare Engine. In the battle that followed, though, Oswyck, Chaplain Ghermer and Canoness Larenta were killed. Their deaths would not be in vain, as their attack finally stopped the Engine and defeated the Black Legion.[1]
