Patrekr
Patrekr the Great Fanged was a Dreadnought in the Space Wolves Legion, during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.[1]
History
He was among its forces that took part in the Horus Heresy's Burning of Prospero, where they clashed with the Thousand Sons. During the battle, however, the Rune Priest Aun Helwintr sensed that terrible forces had been released in Prospero's temple precinct and he sought to destroy it. He gathered Patrekr and the Dreadnought Cormek Dod to confront the threat, along with two dozen Silent Sisters, who were led by Knight-Commander Jenetia Krole. The threat was soon revealed to be a Daemon shaped like the Warmaster Horus, which had attacked and was about to kill the badly wounded Space Wolf Bjorn and the Skjald Kasper Ansbach Hawser. Helwintr and the Dreadnoughts attacked the Daemon before it could do so, but the Daemon survived and was unharmed. It was only when Krole and her Sisters of Silence arrived, that their attacks began to have an impact. Thanks to the Sisters' Null abilities, the Daemon was soon overwhelmed by the Dreadnoughts' attacks and it was finally destroyed.[1]
