'''Serghar Targost''' was the [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] of the [[7th Company (Sons of Horus)|7th Company]] of the [[Luna Wolves]] [[Space Marine Legion]], as well as the lodge-master of the [[warrior-lodge]] that existed within the legion. He was blunt in appearance, with a scarred forehead.{{Fn|1b}}
===History==[[Image:Targost.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Serghar Targost{{Fn|5}}]]=
Targost commissioned the mold for the lodge medallions from a [[remembrancer]] silversmith assigned to the ''[[Vengeful Spirit]]'', whom he killed shortly afterward to preserve the secrecy of the lodges.{{Fn|4}} Targost believed passionately in the role of the warrior-lodge, stating that as genetic constructs employed singularly for war, the [[Astartes]] needed a way to form and express their bonds of brotherhood in a way that wasn't constrained by the pressures of duty.{{Fn|1a}} Targost operated as the voice of the lodge, regulating and organising the meetings.{{Fn|1a}} In his role of lodge-master, he was instrumental in the decision to place the wounded [[Horus]] into the care of the [[Serpent Lodge]], thus ensuring Horus's damnation.{{Fn|2}}
Targost died when [[Rama Karayan]] shot him through the head before he could invest [[Proximo Tarchon]] with a [[daemon]] in the bowels of the ''[[Vengeful Spirit]]''. Moments after Targost's death, [[Samus]] possessed his body.{{Fn|6b}} He managed to kill [[Tubal Cayne]] before Tarchon destroyed Targost/Samus with his gladius.{{Fn|6c}}
