'''Egil Iron Wolf''' is was a [[Wolf Lord]] of the [[Space Wolves]]{{Fn|1a}}.
== History ==
In 897.M41 Egil and his [[Great Company]] fought alongside the [[Mantis Warriors]] [[Chapter]] in the [[Battle of Centius Prime]].{{Fn|3}}
In 999.M41 during the [[Hunt for the Wulfen]] and [[Battle of the Fenris System]], Lord Iron Wolf proved a key commander. He first defeated a [[Daemonic]] legion of [[Mordokh]] on [[Mydgal Alpha]], then later fought alongside [[Logan Grimnar]] himself against the [[Infernal Tetrad]] on [[Midgardia]]{{Fn|2}}. Later during the Battle of the Fenris System, he came to Fenris' aid, when it was invaded by the [[Daemon Prince]] [[Magnus]]. However, when he Egil fired upon the Daemon Prince with a [[Lascannon]], Magnus' used his [[psychic]] powers to freeze froze the las-beam and pull pulled the Wolf Lord in front of his own shot, before letting it go. Magnus then let the las-beam go Egil suffered a direct hit and Egil's upper his body above the waist, was vaporized by the Lascannon's fire.{{Fn|4}}
==Totem==
Egil's Company bear a black shoulder pad with Egil's symbol- The Iron Wolf's head on it. It is the colour of Iron. On shoulder-pads with a trim or edging, the trim is also the same Iron colour. {{Fn|1e}}
Egil's Banner is the Iron Wolf rampant on a black field edged in Iron. It bears the Runes 'Opila' meaning heritage estate and possession and 'Hagalaz' which attributes honour or means hail. Hence a rough translation from the Eldar Furthark (or Proto-Norse) runes should identify the bearer of the runes as having great possession and material wealth either which gives him much honour, or he should be awarded much honour for it. The full heraldry is displayed on a banner in the red of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. The bottom of the banner shows from left to right; a [[Wolf Guard]] honour marking of a paw print in a diamond shape displayed over runic liturgy, the siloutte silhouette of the hunter (a wolfs head face on), and and honour marking of a wolf skull with an Astartes combat knife run through it with runic script above. {{Fn|1f}}
