'''Solun Decius''' was a member of the [[Death Guard]] [[Chaos Space Marine]] [[Legion]].
==Biography==
===Loyal Astartes===
Decius was the youngest member of [[Space_Marine_Captain|Battle-Captain]] [[Nathaniel Garro]]'s command squad, and had a hard and determined edge to him that seemed out of place on such a young countenance. Nevertheless, his eyes were bright and he was often awash with excitement at the possibility of earning glory for his [[Primarch]]. Decius favoured quickly closing to engage hand-to-hand with the enemy, instead of the customary Death Guard habit of a methodical gunline assault. His weapon of choice was a [[Power Fist|power fist]]; he was particularly adept with the brutal weapon. Decius was loyal to Garro, and did not join the warrior-lodge that existed inside the Death Guard as a result of Garro's expressing his disapproval of the lodge.
After his injury Solun was confided to an isolation bay while [[Apothecary]] Voyen tried to find a cure for his ailments. Even on transfer to [[Rogal Dorn]]'s flagship, the [[Phalanx]], no cure could be found.
===Lord of the Flies===Later, after completing their journey to [[Terra]], Solun and his fellow Death Guard loyalists were held in a fortress of the [[Sisters of Silence|Silent Sisterhood]]. Here Solun finally gave in to the power of [[Nurgle]] allowing his corrupted body to be mutated in to a [[daemon|daemonic]] entity, known as the Lord of the Flies. His body was twisted having an arachnid styled face with many eyes and mandibles for mouth, his cut off hand had been remoulded into a bony sharp appendage and his daemonic form had a swarm of insects surrounding him which healed injuries inflicted on him. In this state Solun killed two of his brother marines who were standing vigil over his prone form, until his now inevitable death. Later after killing many of the other people in the sisterhoods care, Solun was finally slain on the surface of [[Luna]] by Captain Nathaniel Garro, his former captain and mentor.
