'''Xander Krast''' was an [[Imperial]] [[Freeblade Knight]].{{Fn|1}}
==History==
In 988.[[M41]], Xander Krast murdered a fellow Knight following a quarrel over a noblewoman’s hand.
With ritual execution looming, Xander is freed by an unknown benefactor and flees his
ancestral home of [[Chrysis]]. Xander’s brothers, tainted by familial association, take ship
after him. The pursuit rages across a dozen systems, but Xander – now fighting as the
freeblade ''Iron Redeemer'' – eventually trades his freedom for his brothers’ assistance in
defending the [[agri world]] of [[Tekara]] from[[ Waaagh!]] [[Garshok]]. Working together, the
brothers stall the greenskin invasion long enough for a strike force from the Iron Hands
[[Clan Raukaan]] to arrive.{{Fn|1}}
During the climactic [[Battle of Devil’s Gorge]], Xander performs a suicide run against the
[[Stompa]] ''Mork Wantz Ya!'' and is presumed slain when the walker’s reactor undergoes a
devastating chain reaction. Many of Clan Raukaan’s battle-brothers are slain in the
explosion, and the survivors vengefully pursue the beaten remnants of Waaagh! Garshok
across the [[Deinora Sector]]. Scattered and harried, the Orks leave the [[Exodite World]] of
[[Selesti]] – the planet that would have been their next target – wholly unmolested.
Watching from deep within the [[webway]], the [[Shadowseer]] [[Sylandri Veilwalker]] sees her
plan come to fruition, and allows herself a brief moment of satisfaction before turning
her attention to other matters.{{Fn|1}}
The surviving brothers return to Chrysis, and report that Xander’s crime has been washed
away in blood. Xander’s name is struck from the annals of [[House Krast]], though the
brothers are careful to make no mention of the Iron Redeemer.{{Fn|1}}
