'''Decario''' is a [[Librarian]] of the [[Relictors]] [[chapter]] and was the first to make use of [[daemon]] weapons against the forces of [[Chaos]].{{Fn|1}}
== History ==
The Relictors, then known as the [[Fire Claws]], mobilised to intercept a badly damaged [[Space Hulk]] named ''[[Captor of Sin]]'' as it left warp space near the [[Forge World]] [[Stygies]]. Decario, [[Inquisitor]] [[De Marche]] and [[Terminator Assault Squad]]s entered the hulk and encountered the forces of a renegade warband led by a [[Tzeentchian]] [[Chaos Champion|champion]] named the [[Excoriator]]. De Marche was badly wounded by the champion and Decario's [[Force Sword]] was broken but he managed to use his [[Power Fist]] to rip the Excoriator's sword arm from its socket. Even so, the Excoriator went on to kill another four terminators and force Decario to the ground. Decario muttered a prayer to the Emperor and reached out for the nearest weapon, picking up the [[Daemon Sword]] of the Excoriator and beheading him.{{Fn|1}}
From that moment on Decario sensed he could use these weapons against [[Chaos]]. De Marche warned Decario to put the sword down, as he was the only one in the party who could control the powers held within the daemon sword. Decario handed over the weapon but would never be free of the power he felt he could wield with it. De Marche had similar feelings to Decario and together they convinced the [[Chapter Master]] of this and they embarked on a crusade to locate similar relics which they could use against Chaos, around the [[Eye of Terror]].{{Fn|1}}
