'''Meric Voyen''' was [[Apothecary]] of the [[Death Guard]]'s 7th Company, under [[Battle-Captain]] [[Nathaniel Garro]].

Shortly before the campaign in the [[Isstvan system]], Garro was furious when Voyen confessed that he was a member of the secret [[warrior-lodges]] forming among the Death Guard's elite warriors. Garro silenced the outrage of his fellow Company Marines, but confronted Voyen in private. Garro said he would not censure Voyen for belonging to the lodges, but said it was essential that, thenceforth, Voyen keep no secrets from his Captain. Voyen, shaken by the continued trust that Garro showed in him, agreed to this.{{Fn|1a}}

Afterward, Voyen told Garro that he was renouncing his oath as an Astartes, deciding that he had proven himself unreliable to his battle-brothers. Garro encouraged him to stay, but Voyen declared that he was a healer first and a warrior second, and so was going to dedicate his life to finding a cure for the Rot that claimed Decius.{{Fn|1h}} Voyen eventually returns from his mission only to confront Garro and was killed as he carried a taint of [[Nurgle]]'s disease within him.{{Fn|2}}
