'''Constantin Valdor''' ('Emperor's Spear'), the '''First of the Ten Thousand'''{{Fn|6c}}, was the Chief Custodian to the [[Emperor of Mankind]] as [[Captain-General]] of the [[Adeptus Custodes]] at the time of the [[Unification Wars]], [[Great Crusade]], and the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|5}}
Later Valdor expressed his surprise when Malcador stated that the Primarchs were still alive and that the Emperor was attempting to find them. Valdor couldn't understand why the [[Chaos|Arch-Enemy]] had decided to spare them, and believed that if they were alive then they would be corrupted. Valdor instead wished to raise armies of mortals to be led by his Custodians.{{Fn|13b}}
Prior to the Horus Heresy, Valdor had [[Adeptus Custodes#Outlook and training|earned]] 1932 names.{{Fn|3}} By the [[41st Millennium]] a book which apparently had his whole name apparently written down took up an entire volume.{{Fn|15}}
