[[Castellan]] '''Marius Reinhart''' was a [[Sword Brethren]] in the [[Black Templars]] [[Chapter]]. Reinhart and a group of Sword Brethern were sent by [[High Marshal]] [[Ludoldus]] to the [[forge world]] of [[Stygia XII]]; with a sarcophagus containing the Sword Brethren [[Ezekial Yesod]]. Light years away the High Marshal's forces fought a battle, which had an entire system on the brink of destruction. Yesod had information that could win the battle and the High Marshal needed him to survive to make use of it. To that end, Reinhart needed to reach the catacombs of the abandoned Black Templar chapter keep Montgisard; where a [[Dreadnought]] capable of saving Yesod waited.{{Fn|1}}
Once on the planet, Reinhart met with [[Interrogator]] [[Edwin Savaul]], of the [[Ordo Hereticus]], and learned the keep had become the base of operations for a [[chaos cult]]. The cult was conducting a ritual to open a warp gate, which if completed would result in an [[exterminatus]] launched on the planet. In order to complete his mission, Reinhart lied and agreed to work together with Savaul's forces to destroy the keep. Using a secret tunnel the Black Templars, Savaul and a group of Battle Sisters entered the keep, while the Stormtroopers launched a diversionary attack. They fought their way through the traitor [[PDF]], that made a majority of the cult and reached the grav lifts that would take them to the chapel, where the heretic priests were close to opening the warp gate.{{Fn|1}}
Here Reinhart told the truth to Savaul and the Sisters and told them the Black Templars would not join them in stopping the ritual. Shocked and angered Savaul and the Sisters were still determined to stop the cult and acceded to the chapel. A moment later Reinhart changed his mind and charged his Sword Brethren, to take the sarcophagus to the catacombs and save Yesod; while he and another member Apollos, aided Savaul. Making their way to the chapel the Black Templar aided Savaul's faltering forces in killing the cult members, who stood in their way. Inside the priests conducting the ritual were behind a physic shield, preventing the group from attacking them. With time running out, Reinhart entered the shield and detonated a cluster of grenades in his arms; as the rest of the group and the newly arrived Yesod, held the surging cult back. The resulting explosion, killed Reinhart and the priests, succeeding in stopping the ritual.{{Fn|1}}
