'''Lucretius Corvo''' was the first [[Chapter Master]] of the [[Novamarines]] and was originally an [[Ultramarines]] Astartes officer, who won great renown fighting the [[Word Bearers]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]. Besieged during one battle on the world of [[Astagar]], Corvo and his men held out for six days, before managing to destroy a [[Traitor Titan Legions|traitor]] [[Warlord Titan]] and break out. For this act, Corvo was decorated by his [[Primarch]] [[Roboute Guilliman]] and this decoration would later become a sacred relic to the Novamarines, where it is kept in their [[Fortress-Monastery]].{{Fn|1}}
Corvo went on to command Ultramarines forces during the [[Battle of Sotha]] during the Heresy.{{Fn|2}}
