[[Image:Amar.jpg|thumb|right|{{PAGENAME}}{{Fn|12}}]]'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is an [[Imperial]] [[Freeblade Knight]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}
As most Freeblades maintain no house markings, and few show any sign of [[Imperial]] or [[Adeptus Mechanicus|Mechanicus]] alignment, it can be difficult to ascertain their past. The lone Freeblade [[Knight Paladin]]{{Fn|2a3a}} known as Amaranthine earned his name from the beleaguered Imperial defenders of [[Romaric VII]]. Most believe the name is a reference to the Knight’s distinctive purple-red hull, but others claim it honours an [[Imperial saintSaint]]. Silent and purposeful, the Knight never responds to the name Amaranthine, or to any hails, [[vox]] transmissions , or other efforts to contact him. However, during the [[Tiberius Wars]] it was observed that the Knight heeded the voxed tactics of those he fought alongside, avoiding firing lines and vanquishing foes as per incoming requests. It led the defenders to believe that though he did not speak, he was always listening. Only invitations to stay once the battle was won seemed to go unheard.{{Fn|12}}
Amaranthine fought as part of [[Task Force Zephon]] against the [[Chaos Space Marine]]s of the [[Harbingers of Destruction]].{{Fn|2a3a}} Notably he fought alongside a [[Imperial Knight|Knight]] of [[House Terryn]] to bring down [[Goreash]], a [[Lord of Skulls]], before it could overrun an [[Aquila Strongpoint]].{{Fn|2b3b}}
