→Biography
Serving alongside [[Gadriel]], the two were later placed under the command of the newly returned [[Space Marine Lieutenant|Lieutenant]] [[Demetrian Titus]] during battles against the [[Tyranids]] on [[Kadaku]] and [[Avarax]].{{Fn|2a}} When it became apparent that the [[Thousand Sons]] were manipulating the events surrounding [[Project Aurora]], Chairon flew into a rage and abandoned his squad to recklessly pursue the traitors.{{Fn|2c}} He was reprimanded for this by Titus, but later when an [[Astropath]] accused the Lieutenant of being a traitor Chairon slew the [[Psyker]] and exposed [[Imurah]]'s treachery. When asked how he knew that the Psyker was possessed by the [[Sorcerer]], Chairon stated that he had an innate sense of [[Warp]] corruption.{{Fn|2d}}
Together with Titus, Gadriel, and [[Marneus Calgar]], Chairon was able to eventually defeat Imurah and his allied [[Lord of Change]] on [[Demerium]].{{Fn|2e}} Sometime later, Chairon would go on to become a decorated [[Space Marine Lieutenant|Lieutenant]] in [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Acheran]]'s [[Space Marine Company|Company]]. However his service to the [[Imperium]] ended, when Chairon joined the Captain's strike force to [[Trygg (World)|Trygg]] and it which was subsequently destroyed by a [[Genestealer Cult]]. Their sacrifice though, greatly reduced the spread of the Cult's rebellion and allowed the [[Hive World]] to be saved by [[Imperial]] reinforcements.{{Fn|5}}
Chairon's left knee-plate bears the [[Iron Halo]] [[Space Marine Honour Badge]].
