'''Magneric{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Marshal (Black Templars)|Marshal]] of the [[Black Templars]] in [[M32]].{{Fn|1}}
A follower of [[Sigismund]] and hero of the [[Horus Heresy]], Magneric was badly injured in fighting against his old friend [[Warsmith]] [[Kalkator]] and subsequently interred into a [[Dreadnought]]. Magneric rarely went into the mandated sleep cycles of Dreadnoughts, becoming emotionally unstable and prone to a fanaticism unusual even for the Templars. His temperaments were usually moderated by his trusted [[Castellan (Black Templars)|Castellan]], [[Ralstan]]. He led the Kalkator [[Crusade]] with a brutal zeal, determined to exact his vengeance on the [[Iron Warriors]] Warsmith.{{Fn|1}}
Magneric met his end in the Battle of Vandis, during the [[War of the Beast]]. The orks boarded ''[[Obsidian Sky (Black Templars)|Obsidian Sky]]'' in numbers and Magneric defended the bridge, killing many before he ordered the ship on a ramming course into a nearby ork carrier.{{Fn|2}}
