'''Ekene Dubaku''' is was the current [[Chapter Master]] of the [[Celestial Lions]].{{Fn|1}}
He was one of the few survivors in his [[Chapter]] after they suffered horrific losses during the campaign against the [[Ork]] hordes of [[Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka]] in the [[Third War for Armageddon]]. Dubaku later took command of the remnants of the Celestial Lions and led them to battle, along with the [[Black Templars]] and [[Armageddon Steel Legion]], against the Ork forces of [[Warboss|Warlord]] [[Thogfang]] in the '''Mannheim Gap'''. In the hard pressed battle that followed, Dubaku killed the Warlord and afterwards, he was selected by Black Templars [[High Marshal]] [[Halbrecht]] to become the new Chapter Master of the surviving Celestial Lions forces. As a sign of honor, Halbrecht gave him an ancient suit of [[Power Armour]] dating back to the [[Great Crusade]].{{Fn|1}}
During a conclave with the [[Emperor's Spears]] Chapter, he was assassinated by a [[Callidus Assassin]] who had hidden among the servants of [[Amadeus Kaias Incarius]], a Marine from the [[Mentor Legion]].{{Fn|2}}
