Some color details
'''Hektor Revvokan''' was the last in a long line of [[Rogue Trader]]s dating back to the [[Age of Apostasy]]. Determined to live forever, he used forbidden xenos knowledge and dark science to unnaturally prolong his life. Eventually he turned to the [[Chaos Gods]], for pursuit of immortality in return for sacrifices. Revvokan gave them sacrifices by turning the guns of his fleet on [[Imperial]] [[frontier world]]s; ravaging the southern [[sector]]s of [[Segmentum Tempestus]] for fifty-seven years.{{Fn|1}}
In 137.[[M40]] Revvokan's fleet was corned by [[Mechanicus]] [[Explorator]]s, the [[Imperial Navy]] and the [[Executioners]] [[Space Marine Chapter]]. Before Revvokan could flee into the [[warp]] his flagship, the ''[[Night Hag]]'', was boarded by the Space Marines. Cut off from support and outnumbered by Revvokan's forces, which included a [[Berserker]] warband of the [[World Eaters]] [[Traitor Legion]], the Executioners were forced to fight with insane zeal. They captured the ship chamber by chamber until they had slain the Rogue Trader and all his cannibalistic goulish followers. They then brought the ''Night Hag'' back into [[realspace]] and claimed it as their prize.{{Fn|1}}
