'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was [[High Marshal]] of the [[Black Templars]] in mid-[[M32]] during the [[War of the Beast]]. He was commanding the small [[Vulpus Crusade]] when the [[Warboss]] known as [[The Beast]] began his campaign against [[Segmentum Solar]].{{Fn|11a}} Desperately trying to fend off attacks from Greenskins, Bohemond went on to help save survivors of the [[Fists Exemplar]] and expressed his intentions to reunite the scattered [[Successor Chapter]]s of the [[Imperial Fists]] to confront this grave threat.{{Fn|1b}}
Bohemond later represented the Black Templars during the meeting between the Fists successor chapters in the Phall System{{Fn|2}}, and led the Sons of Dorn expedition to the [[Sol System]] aboard the vessel [[Abhorrence]].{{Fn|33b}} He subsequently led the combined attack on the Ork [[Attack Moon]] over [[Terra]], and expressed his disdain for the [[High Lords of Terra]] in the aftermath of the tense meeting between the Last Wall's [[Chapter Master]]s and [[Lord Commander]] [[Udin Macht Udo]].{{Fn|3a}}
Bohemond was later one of the central leaders of the Imperial [[War of the Beast_#Counterattack Ullanor|invasion of Ullanor]] in the final push to kill The Beast. During the battle he was always at the forefront of Astartes advances, but proved insubordinate to both Koorland and even the returned [[Vulkan]]. Fed up with the High Marshal's challenges to Koorland, the Primarch stated that if Bohemond could lift his hammer [[Doomtremor]] he would allow him to become the new [[Lord Commander of the Imperium]]. However Bohemond proved unable, as did all the other contenders, while Koorland simply acknowledged that none save Vulkan was capable of lifting it.{{Fn|44b}}
During the final push on the Beasts temple-[[gargant]], Bohemond again objected to Koorland when he ordered that the Astartes evacuate and let Vulkan fight The Beast alone. Koorland struck Bohemond, who simply remained on the ground in shame before evacuating with all the rest.{{Fn|4a}} Later during the second invasion of Ullanor, Bohemond saved Koorland from an attack from The Beast but was badly injured from the blast. The mauled but conscious Bohemond then witnessed the death of Koorland at the hands of the Beast. In the aftermath, he declared his wish to launch a [[Crusade]] to honor the memory of Koorland.{{Fn|5}}
