'''Sevastus Kranon''', also known as '''Kranon the Relentless''', is the current [[Chapter Master]] of the [[Crimson Slaughter]] [[Chaos Space Marine]]s. Kranon was known to be militant and brutal even in his service to the [[Emperor]]. Upon leading his warband into self-imposed exile in the [[Eye of Terror]], Sevastus was corrupted by the powers of [[Chaos]]. Renaming himself Kranon the Relentless, he has driven himself to commit more and more bloody and vile acts in an attempt to silent the maddening voices that plague him, a result of a curse from [[Khorne]].{{Fn|2}}
Kranon would later lead the Crimson Slaughter to [[Bane's Landing ]] in search of the [[Hellfire Stone]], an artefact that would supposedly end his curse although the voices denied that it was possible. During the battle he claimed the lives of several [[Dark Angels]] and took the [[Ravenwing]] [[Space Marine Sergeant |Sergeant]] [[Arion ]] prisoner for use in the ritual. However Arion's suicide thwarted his plan and he was forced to retreat.{{Fn|3}} Eventually he would join forces with a much more powerful Chaos Lord and would be cornered on a moon in [[Tau]] space. The combined efforts of the Dark Angels and [[Space Wolves]] forced him into battle with Company Master [[Balthasar]] for the third time, having met and fought him twice before and escaped through teleporter both times, and finally met his end. Kranon's head was taken back to the [[Battle Barge]] ''Angel of Retribution'' by [[Balthasar]] in an iron box.{{Fn|3}}
