Leman Russ' 1st Great Company, or "Onn" Company in Fenrisian dialect, included his elite '''Varagyr'''. To earn this rank, each warrior had to distinguish himself in battle repeatedly, forging sagas worth telling. They were the true wolves of Russ' pack, marked by the great beast pelts adorning their armor.{{Fn|1d}}
==The Varagyr on the Battlefieldin Battle==
In battle, the '''Varagyr''' charged like a thunderbolt, a tide of armored, beast-skin-draped hulks driven by superhuman strength and ferocity. Their momentum was said to crush enemies even before their fearsome blades could strike.{{Fn|1g}}
'''Varagyrs''' might also ahve worn [[Fenrisian Wolf]] pelts and carried several fangs from the same beast. These trophies, which were often worn by squad leaders and veterans instead of traditional marks of rank, served as badges of honor within the Legion.{{Fn|1h}}
===Wargear===
The '''Varagyrs''' were exclusively clad in [[Terminator_Armour#Cataphractii_Pattern|Cataphractii Terminator Armour]].{{Fn|1g}}
