Thulsa Kane
Thulsa Kane is the Reclusiarch of the Executioners Space Marine Chapter.[1]
Biography
During the Badab War Kane led the Executioners in rebellion against the Imperium alongside Lugft Huron and his Astral Claws due to a long standing blood debt between the two Chapters. The alliance would last until 911.M41, when Astral Claws forces under Arch-Centurion Carnac Commodus attacked the Salamanders battle-barge Pyre of Glory, intent on pillaging its gene-seed stores and armoury, despite the fact that it had peacefully surrendered to the Executioners.[1]
Incensed at this breach of honour, the Executioners turned on the Astral Claws, not stopping until all the oath-breakers were dead. This furious battle was named the Red Hour for the vast amount of blood shed there. From that point on, the Executioners Chapter would become a rogue element in the war, attacking both Loyalist and Secessionist forces alike, although supply convoys were surprisingly left alone. However, in the end Kane helped negotiate the peaceful surrender of the Executioners to the Imperium and he joined his Chapter on its agreed hundred-year penitent crusade.[1]
