[[Image:Parol.jpg|thumb|right|Admiral Parol{{Fn|1}}]]
[[Admiral]] '''Parol''' is the commander of the [[Imperial Navy]] fleet of the [[Armageddon System]].{{Fn|2}}
The second son of the [[Imperial Commander]] of [[Lostan]], Parol was destined to enter the Navy from a young age. A veteran of many campaigns, he is known to be an expert strategist and planner. During the [[Third War for Armageddon]], Parol helped turn the tide of the combat by setting up a very tight blockade around [[Armageddon]]. This, combined with the actions of the ''[[Glorious Age]]'' battlegroup and an ingenious "sneak attack" tactic that involved battleships approaching [[Ork]] [[space hulk]]s while powered down, cut the number of Ork reinforcements significantly. However, the Orks could still use their [[tellyporta]] technology to land reinforcements from a transport ship hidden in the system. Destruction of this vessel became Parol's main preoccupation.{{Fn|2}}
When a particularly impressive space hulk was detected hiding in the debris of [[Armageddon Monitoring Stations|Mannheim Station]], Parol led the chase personally. The capabilities of the hulk were so superior to anything encountered before that Parol was convinced it was the main Ork [[Mekboy]] vessel and probably carried the arch-mekanik [[Orkimedes]] himself. Parol's vessel attempted to initiate a boarding action on the space hulk just as it slipped into the [[warp]]. As yet, no trace of either ship has been found; Admiral Parol is believed to still be in pursuit of Orkimedes.{{Fn|2}}
