===Biography==[[Image:Abidemi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|{{PAGENAME}}]]=
Following the [[Battle of Nocturne]], Abidemi was among the three Salamanders to discover the reborn [[Vulkan]] at Mt. Deathfire alongside [[Barek Zytos]] and [[Igen Gargo]]. The three were named Vulkan's ''[[Draaksward]]'', his traveling companions on his journey through the [[Webway]] to [[Terra]]. Atok Abidemi, along with Vulkan and the rest of the Draaksward, eventually reached the [[Imperial Palace]] on Terra after an arduous journey.{{Fn|1}}
Later during the final stages of the Siege, Abidemi stayed by Vulkan's side at the foot of the [[Golden Throne]] as the Emperor left it to assault the ''[[Vengeful Spirit]]''. As traitor forces begin to pound down the last door into the Throneroom, Abidemi sheds tears as he agrees with Vulkan that the time has come to activate the [[Talisman of Seven Hammers]] and deny the enemy the throneworld.{{Fn|4a}} However after hearing the message being broadcast across Terra by [[Actae]] that the Emperor still lived and fighting Horus, the activation is averted.{{Fn|4}}
===Wargear===
Abidemi wielded the massive [[Chainsword]] ''[[Draukoros]]'', which once belonged to First Captain [[Artellus Numeon]].{{Fn|2b}}
