==Introduction==
Azariah Kyras is the enigmatic leader of the [[Blood Ravens]] and is heavily suspected of chaotic taint.
==Background==
Relatively little is known of the current [[Chapter Master]] and [[Chief Librarian]] of the [[Blood Ravens]] [[Space Marine ]] Chapter. What is known is that 1,000 years before the [[Black Legion]]'s invasion of the [[Aurelia|Aurelian]] systemsub sector, planet [[Aurelia]] disappeared during a [[Warp Storm]], after being pushed so far out of orbit that the planet froze with icy glaciers and killed almost all of the populace. Sometime just before the planet was taken by the [[Warp]], Librarian Kyras managed to imprison a [[Greater Daemon]] by the name of [[Ulkair]], after his master [[Moriah]] was killed by the daemon. Soon after, the warp took the planet, and Azariah Kyras with it.
Kyras eventually returned some centuries later, appearing before the battered elements of the Blood Raven's 5th Company, as they attempted to board the [[Space Hulk]] 'The Judgment of Carrion'. There, showing up inexplicably, Kyras aided [[Apothecary]] Galan in successfully escaping the Space Hulk. However, Galan reported Kyras' depressive behavior, mentioning that the Librarian told his earlier exploits against Ulkair in a melancholy manner, damaging morale.
