'''Grendyl''' is a mysterious [[Inquisitor]] of the [[Ordo Hereticus]].{{Fn|1c}}
==Overview==
Interrogator [[Melis Xallia]] of the [[Ordo Malleus]] and Grendyl are known to consider each other friends.{{Fn|1d}}
The Inquisitor has a hidden sanctum somewhere within [[Tertium]].{{Fn|3b}} Interogator [[Iven Rannick|Rannick]] also mentions that Grendyl has invested far too much time and energy into Atoma and would not simply [[Exterminatus]] the [[hive world]] after the Tertium Blight was confirmed to be of [[Warp]] influence.{{Fn|1e}}
The Inquisitor sent a small warband lead by Interrogator Rannick to the [[Moebian Domain]]. They are currently fighting against a [[Nurgle]] [[Chaos cult|cult]] uprising combined with a [[Traitor Guard|traitor guardsmen]] invasion on [[Atoma Prime]]. The Inquisitor has called upon the [[Rogue Trader]] [[Emora Brahms]] to host his warband aboard her vessel, the ''[[Mourningstar]]'', and aid in his mission in [[Hive]] [[Tertium]].{{Fn|1c}}
Zola would gain approval from Grendyl to bolster the warband with newly press-ganged fighting force of Grendyl's warband are often referred to as "Rejectsrejects". None of these new recruits have never seen Grendyl. During their mass initiation into Inquisitorial service when a recorded message from Grendyl was presented by a [[servitor]] chassis who's head was an inconsistent [[hololith]] face.{{Fn|2}} Even with the bolstered numbers of local disposable assets, Grendyl's forces are stretched thin and struggling to cauterize every new erupting pustule emerging within the hive.{{Fn|5b}} The massed legions of Grendyl's rejects are more meat for the grinder. criminals, minor heretics, or simply those who found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time, rejects are given a second chance to serve the God-Emperor by joining the warband of an Inquisitor. Grendyl doesn't expect most, if any, of them to survive. His only interaction with those making up this disposable legion is through the servitor eqipt with a hololithic projector. Aside from the initial interaction, he might give bespoke mission briefings to teams for particularly important missions via this means of communication.{{Fn|5c}}
