'''Hodir''' was is a [[Chaos Lord|warlord]] of the [[Night Lords]]. Unlike many of his [[Chaos Space Marine]] colleagues, Hodir was not an original member of the [[Legio Astartes]] nor did he take part in the [[Horus Heresy]]. Rather, he was born a normal child in [[M37]] and was a survivor of the [[Te'Oran Scouring]]. Hodir was among the sole 100 children to survive the Night Lords [[virus bomb]]ing of the planet and during the panic massacred other citizens for space in the planets last remaining bomb shelter. Impressed by his viciousness, he was later genetically modified and inducted into the Night Lords. While many looked down on Hodir because of his "impure" origin, he nonetheless embraced Night Lords traditions such as wearing the scalps of victims on his belt. Hodir has since become a successful raider and pirate.{{Fn|1}}
Hodir was among those who accepted the invitation by [[Chengrel]] of the [[Iron Warrior]]s to win captured [[Eldar]] [[Spirit Stone]]s in auction, won by who could impress the elderly warlord with a tale of battle and the most substantial bid. Hodir's tale recounted his capture of the Imperial ship ''Hymn of Phelinde'', massacring its crew, witnessing the [[Navigator]] miraculously guide it through the [[Warp]] and Hodir's Night Lords having survived the harrowing journey, and his later capture of the Navigator; Hodir's bid was to enlist Chengrel's warband to repeat the trip and stage an audacious sneak attack on a heavily fortified Imperial [[Space Station]], with Chengrel getting the first pick of plunder and conquest. However, Chengrel rebuffed the offer. Later, Chengrel, already irate and unimpressed with his guests, discovered none of them were original Chaos Space Marines, and when challenged on his own accomplishments, he flew into a rage and a free-for-all battle for possession of the Spirit Stones began, with Hodir aiding [[Khrove]] of the [[Thousand Sons]] in battling Chengrel. Hodir and his bodyguards were successful in capturing the stones, but they were taken by one of his rivals, [[Emmesh-Aiye]] of the [[Emperor's Children]]. While Hodir was soundly defeated by Emmesh-Aiye, it is presumed that he survived and escapedthe planet.{{Fn|1}}
