Vallera Dresis
Vallera Dresis was the Planetary Governor of Xariss in late M41.[1]
Biography
When Xariss found itself in the path of the Tyranid Hive Fleet Leviathan, the planet was believed doomed by Imperial authorities, who made no efforts to defend Xariss from invasion by the Tyranids. However, Governor Dresis was considered essential personnel, and so a small Militarum task force led by Commissar Decius Krassus was tasked with evacuating Dresis.[1]
When Commissar Krassus and his men reached the Governor's palace, however, they were attacked by Dresis's servants, who now sported strange tattoos. They found that Dresis and her men were heretics who had turned to the worship of Dark Gods in search of salvation from the Tyranids.[1]
Despite the Governor's fall to Chaos, Commissar Krassus insisted that the task force's orders were to extract Dresis and bring her to the authorities. Tempestor Prime Cadmur had his men tranq her and she was brought through the Tyranid swarms to the task force's evac point, where Valkyries of the 99th Deltic Gorgonnes waited to bring them offworld. Dresis awoke on one of the Valkyries as they lifted off, Krassus's plasma pistol pointed directly at her face.[1]
