"Lord" '''Varlak''' was one of the more infamous figures in recent [[Imperial]] history. The former [[Planetary Governor ]] of [[Korsk II]],{{Fn|1}} Varlak had been a lowly [[corporal]] before becoming a devotee of an extreme but superficially [[Imperial cult]].{{Cite this}}
==History==
Though powerful, Varlak was erratic and unhinged. Not expecting such a sudden response from the Imperium, Varlak became crazed, constantly suspecting treachery and summarily executing his followers.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|1d}} In the face of Imperial forces bearing down on his command bunker, Varlak sought to flee. His retreat thwarted by the destruction of his personal craft, Varlak desperately sought alternate means of escape.{{Fn|1c}} In the end Varlak was seemingly killed at the hands of the Space Marines, and Korsk II was brought back into compliance.{{Fn|1e}}
Though reported dead, Inquisitor [[Darius]] suspected that Varlak had in fact managed to escape to [[Necromunda (planet)|Necromunda]]. In 997.M41 the Inquisitor reported that Varlak had been operating on the planet under the alias of the '''Grand Dog'''.{{Fn|2}}
