'''Perturabo''' is the [[Primarch]] of the [[Iron Warriors]], one of the original twenty [[Space Marine Legion]]s. Bitter and feeling marginalized by the [[Imperium]], he sided with [[Horus]] during the [[Horus Heresy]] and has since ascended to [[Daemon Prince|Daemonhood]]. He, like his Iron Warriors, had a natural affinity towards technology and a cold logic, but lacked the strength of faith.

===Youth===
According to Perturabo himself, he is estimated to have been born around 792.[[M30]].{{Fn|12}} When the primarchs were scattered to the ends of the galaxy, Perturabo landed on a planet named [[Olympia]]. For at least a year, he was alone in the rural regions of Olympia and became a famed wanderer that would slay legendary beasts. However, he was first discovered climbing the mountains below the city state of Lochos with no memory of anything prior.{{Fn|12a}} The guards, having realised this was no normal child, brought him before the [[Tyrant of Lochos|Dammekos]], the '''Tyrant of Lochos'''. Dammekos was intrigued by the child and brought him into his house and treated him as family. Dammekos noticed the boy's overwhelming intellect and skill with everything from architecture to the arts to political debate to combat, and he became a wonder with which Lochos secured alliances with other city-states. The young Perturabo, though he knew he was not of this world and was made by design as opposed to nature, was disgusted by the religious Olympians and believed in the cold logic of science and reason.{{Fn|12a}}
