==History==
The 13th Great Company was formed from the followers of [[Leman Russ (primarch)|Leman Russ]] from his days on [[Fenris]] before the coming of the [[Emperor|Allfather]], despite the warnings of the [[Mechanicum]] that they were too old to undergo the transformation. Many died in the process. As such they were known as the "Greybeards" to the rest of the Legion, while they referred to themselves as the "Wolf Brothers".{{Fn|3}} [[Jorin Bloodhowl]], one of Russ' original [[Einherjar]] honour guard, became the first [[Praetor (Rank)|jarl]] of Dekk-Tra, the 13th, which was considered the most honourable and the closest to Russ.{{fnFn|11a}}
It was among the ranks of the Wolf Brothers that the [[Wulfen|Curse of the Wulfen]] first appeared, afflicting warriors in the heat of battle without any prior warning. During the [[Dulan Campaign]], two Legionaries succumbed in quick succession - although the affliction had been seen before by Jorin and his huscarl, [[Bulveye]]. The [[Wolf Priest]] [[Ulbrandr Crowhame]] was unable to discover any physiological cause, neither was the [[Rune Priest (Space Wolves)|Rune Priest]] [[Leif Hemligjaga]] able to detect any trace of ''[[Chaos|maleficarum]]''. Jorin resolved to keep it a secret, telling not even the primarch.{{fnFn|11a}}
Bulveye later succeeded Jorin as jarl and led the Wolf Brothers as part of the 954th [[Expeditionary Fleet]] at the [[Battle of Kernunnos]]{{fn|3}} and the [[Battle of Prospero]], where they disappeared.{{Fn|8}}
