'''Raldoron''' was the [[First Captain]]{{Fn|1}} of the [[Blood Angels]] [[Space Marine Legion]], [[Chapter Master]] of the Protectors{{Fn|2}}, and [[Equerry]] to the [[Primarch]] [[Sanguinius]]. He was chosen as First Captain because of his adaptable command style, something in sharp contrast with [[Azkaellon]], Commander of the [[Sanguinary Guard]]{{Fn|1a}}, and because he knew the hearts and minds of the battle-brothers of the IX Legion.{{Fn|1b}}
Raldoron was present for the joint Blood Angels/[[Luna Wolves]] campaign against the [[Nephilim]] on [[Melchior]]. Following the battle, Raldoron discovered Brother [[Alotros]] had fallen to the [[Red Thirst]] and become "lost", he immediately informed his Primarch. Sanguinius went to deal with Alotros himself, but when he emerged, [[Horus|Horus Lupercal]] was with him, meaning that the Primarch of the Luna Wolves had discovered the secret of the lost. After exchanging harsh words with Azkaellon, Raldoron ordered [[Apothecary]] [[Meros]] to oversee the extraction of Alotros's [[progenoid]] glands, then ordered him to never speak a word of what had happened here.{{Fn|1a}}
