'''Hashin Yonnad'''{{Fn|3}} was a [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] in the [[Imperial Fists]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]], who held the title of '''Fleet Master''' during the closing years of the [[Great Crusade]]{{Fn|1b}}.

==Overview==
Before he became an Imperial Fist, Yonnad was amongst the hundreds of [[Aspirant]]s that trained under the watchful eye of the [[Primarch]] [[Rogal Dorn]]; after he was reunited with his Legion, in 835.[[M30]], during the Great Crusade. During his training Yonnad formed a friendship with fellow Aspirants '''Kye''' and '''Archamus''', but their friendship would soon be severed by the actions of Kye. During a combat exercise, with [[Combat Servitor]]s, Archamus was killed after he followed a strategy created by Kye, that went against what their superiors overseeing the exercise had told them to follow. Yonnad held Kye responsible for Archamus' death and their friendship ended; though they remained cordial with each other as they continued their training. Eventually, both were part of the first group of twenty Aspirants, that successfully completed their training under Dorn's guidance, and Yonnad was there to witness Kye change his name to [[Archamus]], to honour their fallen friend, during the ceremony welcoming them into the Imperial Fists Legion.{{Fn|1a}}

Yonnad would go on to have an distinguished career during the Great Crusade and took many Captains under his wing, to teach them the art of space combat{{Fn|1b}}. During the Crusade's [[War of the Consus Drift]], his [[Primarch]] [[Rogal Dorn]] gave Yonnad command of the [[Imperial Fists]]' forces, as they invaded the [[Driftborn]]'s asteroid cities. Even as he did so, Yonnad regretted that the Driftborn's foolish refusal to accept the [[Imperium]]'s Compliance, led so many of them to needlessly die. He was relieved when the Driftborn later surrendered, after Dorn had threatened them with extinction if they continued to resist. Though it saddened him to admit it, Yonnad knew he would have destroyed the Driftborn without hesitation, if his Primarch had willed it.{{Fn|3}}

When the [[Horus Heresy|Heresy]] began, Yonnad was given command of his [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]]'s '''Retribution Fleet'''; which was sent by [[Dorn]] to confront [[Horus]], in the [[Isstvan System]]. However, after the Retribution Fleet entered the [[Warp]], it was hit by [[Warp Storm|severe storms]] that wrecked havoc upon it and caused numerous casualties and destroyed many of the [[Imperial Fists]]' ships. When the Retribution Fleet finally exited the Warp in the [[Phall System]], it was discovered that Yonnad was among the many Imperial Fists that were killed by the storms. After the remnants of the Retribution Fleet were reformed, command of the remaining ships fell to Captain [[Alexis Polux]]; who was Yonnad's current protégé and amongst the greatest of his pupils.{{Fn|2}}
