==Biography==
Amit and the Fifth Company partook in the joint Blood Angels/[[Luna Wolves]] assault on the [[Nephilim]] on [[Melchior]].{{Fn|1c}} Later, Amit accompanied his [[Primarch]] [[Sanguinius]], [[First Captain]] [[Raldoron]], and Captain [[Thoros]] to the [[Council of Nikaea|Council]] of [[Nikaea]]. Amit was commanded to stand sentinel in the Great Angel's quarters. When the [[Emperor of Mankind]] issued the Edict of Nikaea, Amit, who was staunchly pro-[[Librarian]], suspected that it was because Sanguinius feared that Amit would try to argue with the Emperor. When Raldoron returned to the Blood Angels quarters, Amit argued with Raldoron that commanding the Librarians to never again use their powers was a mistake, and expressed concerned about how they were to be reintegrated. Sanguinius entered and assured Amit that the Librarians still be welcomed in the Blood Angels ranks, but that the Emperor's word was law, and the Edict of Nikaea was to be followed.{{Fn|1a}}
Amit and the Fifth Company later joined the joint Blood Angels/[[Alpha Legion]] operation in the [[Kayvas Belt]] fighting the [[Ork]]s.{{Fn|1b}} Following the campaign, Amit and the Fifth accompanied the rest of the Blood Angels Legion in their campaign in the [[Signus Cluster]]. After rescuing Squad [[Cassiel]] on [[Holst]] from [[Chaos|strange hostiles]],{{fn|1d}} Amit began to have concerns that the Blood Angels had been lead into a trap. Having been aware that Raldoron's adjutant, [[Mkani Kano]], had been seeking out his former brothers in the [[Librarius]], Amit approached the former Librarian and offered to help him.{{fn|1e}} After the ''[[Red Tear]]'' had crashed on [[Signus Prime]] and the ''[[Dark Page]]'' under [[Chaplain]] [[Tanus Kreed]] of the [[Word Bearers]] fled, Sanguinius called a meeting of the [[Council of Angels]], Amit finally spoke what he had feared: [[Warmaster]] [[Horus Lupercal]] had lead the Blood Angels into a trap. The words had barely left his lips when Sanguinius struck Amit in the chest with the pommel of his [[Crimson Great Sword|sword]] and demanded Amit recant his statement. Though clearly shocked at his Primarch's outburst, Amit stood by his accusation. He was only spared censure when [[Helik Redknife]] of the [[Space Wolves]] revealed that Primarch [[Magnus]] of the [[Thousand Sons]] had violated the Edict of Nikaea.{{fn|1f}}
During the [[Battle of Signus Prime]], when Sanguinius was wounded by [[Ka'Bandha]], the Blood Angels fell to the depths of rage, and Amit and some of his warriors succumbed to the [[Red Thirst]]. In the throes of the rage, Amit and his brothers descended upon Redknife and his Wolves, killing them.{{fn|1g}} Following the battle, Amit revealed what he had done to First Captain Raldoron, and submitted himself to punishment. However, [[Azkaellon]], the Commander of the [[Sanguinary Guard]], prevented him, and Raldoron revealed that Azkaellon had already lied to Sanguinius about the Wolves deaths. Amit nearly came to blows with the Guard Commander, but Azkaellon explained that if Sanguinius knew what had happened, he would blame himself and tell [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]] the truth, risking the bonds between the Legiones Astartes at a time when unity was needed. Amit asked how he was supposed to ease the pain in his heart, and Azkaellon told him that it was the burden he must bear.{{Fn|1h}}
Following the Heresy, Amit became Master of a Chapter of the [[Second Founding]], which bore his epithet Flesh Tearers.{{fn|2}} He later lead the Flesh Tearers to conquer [[Cretacia]] and take the planet as the Chapters new homeworld.{{Fn|3}}
