'''Maloghurst''' was a [[Space Marine]] of the [[Black Legion|Luna Wolves ]] [[Legion]].

Known as "the Twisted" for the complex workings of his mind, Maloghurst was [[Horus]]'s chief advisor and public voice, and a shrewd manipulator. He was also a formidable warrior, and was a speculated contender for the [[First Captain]]cy (the post held by [[Ezekyle Abaddon]]) when Horus made him his [[equerry]]^.{{Fn|1.}}

During the Battle of [[Sixty-Three-Nineteen]], Maloghurst was dispatched to the surface to parley with the "[[Emperor of Mankind (63-19)|Emperor of Mankind]]", the imposter leader of the planet, but his [[Stormbird]] was shot down and he was seriously wounded in the crash. He was recovered from the surface, and the remembrancer [[Euphrati Keeler]]'s pict-records of the rescue spread through the [[63rd Expeditionary Fleet|63rd Expedition]], making Maloghurst into a war hero. His body was badly mangled by the events (thus truly making him "twisted"), but he remained willing - and quite able - to serve his Warmaster. He also boldly stated that he was aware of his nickname among the rest of the Legion and had no wish to abandon it: his mind was as deft as ever, and if his body was now twisted to fit it, then so be it^.{{Fn|1.}}

His role in the [[Horus Heresy|Heresy]] itself was as Horus' chief enforcer, ensuring that the Warmaster's orders were carried out. To this end, early on he employed the services of the mute assassin [[Maggard]] after he was freed from service to his overbearing remembrancer mistress [[Petronella Vivar]].{{Cite This}}.

He also directed [[Typhus|Calas Typhon]] of the [[Death Guard]] to stop the fleeing frigate ''[[Eisenstein]]'' before it could escape and warn the Emperor of Horus' treachery^.{{Fn|2.}}
