'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Marshal (Black Templars)|Marshal]] of the [[Black Templars]] in [[M32]]. A follower of [[Sigismund]] and hero of the [[Horus Heresy]], Magneric was badly injured in fighting against his old friend [[Warsmith]] [[Kalkator]] and subsequently interred into a [[Dreadnought]]. Magneric rarely went into the mandated sleep cycles of Dreadnoughts, becoming emotionally unstable and prone to a fanaticism unusual even for the Templars. His temperaments were usually moderated by his trusted [[Castellan (Black Templars)|Castellan]], [[Ralstan]]. He led the Kalkator [[Crusade]] with a brutal zeal, determined to exact his vengeance on the [[Iron Warriors]] Warsmith.{{Fn|1}}
Ultimately, Magneric cornered Kalkator on [[Dzelenic IV]] but both his and the Iron Warriors forces were under attack from [[Orks]] of [[The Beast]]. Facing mutual annihilation, Magneric initially refused Kalkator's calls for a temporary truce but was swayed by Ralstan. Magneric and Kalkator put aside their vendetta for a time in order to battle the Greenskins.{{Fn|1}}
