===Biography===
====The Great Crusade====
Corswain was born on [[Caliban]] but was not inducted into [[The Order]]. He was uniquely placed to bridge the divisions within the First Legion during its formation into the Dark Angels under [[Lion El'Jonson]]'s leadership. He was groomed to serve not any one Host or Order but to command the respect and knowledge of all.{{Fn|8}}
====Horus Heresy====
=====Thramas Crusade=====
*{{Main|Thramas Crusade}}
After the outbreak of the [[Horus Heresy]], Corswain fought alongside his [[Primarch]] [[Lion El'Jonson]] against the [[Night Lords]] in the [[Thramas Crusade]]. On [[Tsagualsa]], Corswain and Alajos accompanied the Lion when he met with the Primarch of the Night Lords [[Konrad Curze]] and his own [[Honour Guard]]. After battle broke out between the two sides, Corswain and Alajos battled [[Sevatar]] and [[Shang]]. Corswain was unable to prevent Captain Alajos from being killed, but impaled Curze as he strangled the Lion - leaving the sword in the primarch's spine.{{Fn|1}}
