'''Spira''' was a [[General]] of the [[Mordian Iron Guard]].{{Fn|1}}
When the [[warp]]-tainted shadow of the [[Battle Barge]] ''[[Eclipse of Hope]]'' passed close to Supplicium Secundus, its presence infected the planet's populace with a rage-plague that led them to slaughter each other indiscriminately. Before the civilisation on the world collapsed, they were able to send a distress call; Spira and his [[Imperial Guard Regiment|regiment]] were only one [[system]] away and so they were the first Imperial unit to respond, only to fall victim to the warp phenomenon themselves, descending in their entirety to the planet's surface to kill. {{Fn|1}} By the time a [[Blood Angels]] task force arrived in the [[Supplicium System]], almost all of the inhabitants of Supplicium Secundus were dead, as were the Iron Guard.{{Fn|1}}
