'''Logan Grimnar''', '''The Old Wolf, Fangfather''', and '''High King of Fenris''', has been the [[Great Wolf]] of the [[Space Wolves]] [[chapter]] for over 500 years and is one of the oldest [[Chapter Master]]s in the [[Imperium]]. Logan, like his fellow Space Wolves, is a fearsome warrior with great martial pride. He has led his [[Great Company]] ('''The Night Runners'''){{Fn|6}} against many enemies of the [[Imperium]] and has shown a renowned thirst for battle, which some say, even rivals that of their legendary [[Primarch]], [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]]. He doesn’t tolerate any outside interference when running the Chapter, to the point where the Space Wolves have had numerous clashes with the [[Administratum]] and the [[Ecclesiarchy]] and this has lead to the accusations of [[heresy]] and treason.{{Fn|2a}}
==Biography==
After over a century of war and unparalleled heroism, Logan Grimnar had risen to earn a place among Asvald’s [[Wolf Guard]], often keeping the counsel of the Wolf Lord and always close to his side. As always, the Wolf Priests kept close watch on Grimnar, and Ulrik taught the young warrior all there was to know about the traditions and history of the Chapter. In the 390s.[[M41]], Logan Grimnar accompanied Ulrik to try and claim the [[Fist of Russ]] during the [[Macharian Crusade]], working alongside the then-rising hero [[Lord Solar]] [[Macharius]].{{Fn|4a}} He then led a Space Wolves strike force in the [[Macharian Crusade]] and came to personally respect [[Lord Solar]] [[Macharius (Character)|Macharius]]. During one of the final battles of the war on [[Loki (Macharian Crusade)|Loki]] Logan alongside [[Inquisitor]] [[Hyronimus Drake]] led the assault on the citadel of the traitorous general [[Richter (Macharian Crusade)|Richter]].{{Fn|13}}
In 415.[[M41]] when Asvald finally fell in battle against [[Orks]] for the [[Cyclopean Rift]], Logan Grimnar was elected [[Wolf Lord]] in his place by unanimous assent of his fellow Wolf Guard, leading the Great Company known as the '''Night Runners'''{{Fn|6}}. Favored by the Chapter, he soon ascended to [[Great Wolf]] in 440.[[M41]] after the incumbent [[Sigvald Grimhammer]] was murdered by a [[Dark Eldar]] [[Succubus]].{{Fn|3}}
