Taelos is a Chaplain in the Crimson Fists Chapter.^[1]

History

He was among its forces^[1] that Captain Ashor Drakken led to aid Badlanding,^[2] after the Imperial world was invaded by the Orks of Warlord Snagrod, the Arch-Arsonist of Charadon. However, this ended in disaster and the Orks were victorious.^[3] Taelos took temporary command of the Crimson Fists' forces on Badlanding afterwards and cleverly instructed his Techmarines to install a large-scale vox-caster on his power armour. In this way, the Chaplain was able to uplift the downtrodden Imperial forces left on Badlanding with his litanies of hate. Sometime later, Taelos was among the Crimson Fists' forces who took part^[1] in the Dark Crusade's^[4] Gathrog Campaign, against the Orks of the Green Kroosade.^[5] However, the Chaplain was later killed by the Xenos in one of the Campaign's battles.^[1]
