'''Aster Crohne''' , known as the '''Ghost of Saiph'''{{Fn|3}}, was a [[Centurion (Rank)|Centurion]] in the [[Blood Angels]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion's]] [[94th Company (Blood Angels Legion)|94th Company]] during the [[Great Crusade]].
A veteran of the Blood Angels, Crohne served in the Legion in the days before the coming of [[Sanguinius]]. Recruited from the killing fields of [[Saiph]], as a child, it is said none survived as many massacres and slaughters of Aster Crohne. He was among the few of his tribe from the wastes of his homeworld to survive recruitment into the Legion. He became known for his survival skills and bloody-minded tenacity that defied belief even within the IXth Legion. Upon the coming of Sanguinius and the reformation of the Legion from a force of bloodthirsty killers to that of noble warriors, Crohne was seen as a relic and garnered little favor from the new elite of his Legion, lingering as the rank of [[Centurion (Rank)|Judiciar]].{{Fn|1c}}
