'''Uriel Ventris''' is the current [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] of the [[Ultramarines]] Fourth [[Space Marine Company|Fourth Company]]. He is descended from [[1st Company]] [[Veteran Sergeant]] [[Lucian Ventris]], who died in [[Macragge]]'s northern Polar Fortress during the [[Battle for Macragge]].{{Fn|4b}}
==History==
During a boarding action of the [[space hulk]] ''[[Death of Virtue]]'', Ventris and the Fourth were attacked by hordes of [[genestealers]]. [[Astropaths]] aboard the [[Strike Cruiser]] ''[[Vae Victus]]'' detected psychic disturbances from a [[Tyranid]] [[Hive Fleet]] (a tendril of [[Leviathan]]) moving towards [[Tarsis Ultra]].{{Fn|3}}{{Fn|4a}}
Sworn to honour an ancient oath pledged by [[Roboute Guilliman]], to defend the people of Tarsis Ultra, Ventris, on Lord Calgar's orders, enlisted the aid of a [[Space Marine Company|Company]] from the [[Mortifactors]] [[chapter]], led by [[Chaplain]] [[Astador]].{{Fn|4a}}
Upon arriving on the planet, the Space Marines were further supported by the [[10th Logres]] [[regiment]] led by [[Colonel]] [[Octavius Rabelaq]], the 933rd [[Death Korps of Krieg]] led by Colonel [[Trymon Stagler]], and the [[Planetary Defence Forces|PDF]] Regiments headed by [[Major]] [[Aries Satria]]. [[Lord Inquisitor]] [[Kryptman]] was also present to impart his extensive knowledge of the Tyranids to help the war effort, along with a [[Deathwatch]] [[Kill-team]] led by Captain [[Bannon]].{{Fn|4x}}
