'''Samwell Wyan''' is an [[Admiral]] of the [[Imperial Navy]], who commands the [[Battleship#Imperial_Navy|Battleship]] [[Retributio Tempestatis]].{{Fn|1b}}
==History==
[[Image:SamwellWyan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|''Samwell Wyan''{{Fn|1b}}]]
She is part of an [[Imperial Navy]] fleet that is active within the [[Imperium Nihilus]]. However, this fleet was later attacked by the [[Ork]] armada of the [[Warboss]] [[Zask' Lagga]], who then became obsessed with capturing the [[Retributio Tempestatis]]. The [[Xenos]] were able to heavily damage the [[Battleship]] as they attempted to do so and this forced [[Admiral]] Wyan to enact an emergency [[warp]] jump into a nearby [[Sector]]. The Tempestatis survived the journey and found itself close to an [[Indomitus Crusade Fleet]],{{Fn|1b}} which was protecting the sector's worlds from the [[Prophet (Sorcerer Lord)|Prophet]]'s [[Black Legion]] [[Chaos Warband|warband]].{{Fn|1a}}
After Wyan told the fleet's [[Space Marine Commander]] about what had occurred, his [[Magos]], [[Zoeina Pryam]], reported that there were sightings of [[Ork]] warships on the sector's outskirts. The [[Admiral]] believed this was [[Zask' Lagga|Lagga]]'s armada and she feared the [[Warboss]] would soon follow the [[Retributio Tempestatis]] into the sector. Wyan implored the Commander to help her repair the heavily damaged [[Battleship]] before that occurred and he agreed to do so. But the repair process caught the Orks' attention and Lagga's armada attacked the fleet before the Tempestatis was fully operational. Nevertheless, as the Commander and the Warboss' warships clashed, Wyan led her battleship against Lagga's flagship, [[Da Blue Crusha]]. She was then able to damage the Crusha so severely, that Lagga ordered his armada to retreat before his flagship could be destroyed. However, the Warboss warned that he would return to claim the Retributio Tempestatis.{{Fn|1b}}
The [[Indomitus Crusade Fleet]] then resumed repairing the [[Battleship]], but [[Zask' Lagga|Lagga]] once again returned before the [[Retributio Tempestatis]]' repairs were completed. This time however, the [[Warboss]]'s armada was able to board the Battleship and began jettisoning its crew into space. When it became clear the Tempestatis was going to be captured by Lagga's [[Orks]], [[Magos]] [[Zoeina Pryam|Pryam]] advised the [[Admiral]] to give the order to abandon the Battleship. Wyan refused to do so and instead prepared to sacrifice the Tempestatis, by overloading its [[Warp]] drives. But before that could happen, the Admiral's [[Imperial Navy]] fleet suddenly emerged from the Warp and began attacking the Warboss' armada. Now caught between the Indomitus and Navy fleets, the Orks were outmatched and Lagga ordered his armada to retreat into the Warp.{{Fn|1b}}
The Warboss once more threatened to return and claim the [[Retributio Tempestatis]], but Wyan would not allow Lagga to escape again. She then ordered her Battleship to ram [[Da Blue Crusha]], just as it prepared to enter the Warp. The attack successfully landed, and the Warboss' flagship was then destroyed by the Imperial Navy fleet. After the battle was over, Wyan's [[Imperial Navy Commander]] praised the Admiral for her efforts, but stated they still had to perform their duties to the Imperium. He then ordered Wyan to rejoin the Navy fleet, once the Tempestatis was made ready. Wyan confirmed she would do so and her Imperial Navy fleet then entered the Warp. The [[Indomitus Crusade Fleet]]'s [[Space Marine Commander|Commander]] praised the Admiral as well, for her loyalty and courage. She replied though, that the Tempestatis and its crew would not have survived Lagga's attacks, without the Commander's support. Wyan then asked the [[Emperor]] to guide the Commander's actions, before leaving to rejoin her Navy fleet.{{Fn|1b}}
