[[Image:CastrmenOrth.jpg|thumb|right|Spearhead-Centurion Castrmen Orth{{Fn|1}}]]
'''Castrmen Orth''' was an [[Iron Hands]] Spearhead-[[Centurion (Rank)|Centurion]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]. {{Fn|1}} One of the most highly decorated tank commanders in the Legion and the youngest to hold such a rank, Orth's 'Subjugator' armoured battalions was chosen alongside [[Avernii Clan]] veterans to accompany [[Ferrus Manus]] in his pursuit of [[Fulgrim]].{{Fn|1}}
At the onset of the [[Drop Site Massacre]], Orth first took charge of the Iron Hands [[Super-Heavy Tank]] spearhead and survived the destruction of his [[Fellblade]] ''Rashemion''. Afterwards, he took charge of the [[Sicaran]] tank ''Black Sun'' and redeployed to take charge of loyalist fast-armor elements in a successful counter attack against a Traitor flanking attempt. What ultimately happened to Orth at the Massacre remains a matter of conjecture, but it has long been rumored that though badly disfigured he survived, abandoning his name and rank in shame but not his burning desire for vengeance against the Traitors.{{Fn|1}}
