Taymon Verticorda was the Lord Commander of House Taranis during the Horus Heresy.[1a]
An ancient warrior who had personally met the Emperor when He first landed on Mars, Verticorda witnessed first hand the Emperor's power when He repaired his Knight with a touch, leading Verticorda to be the first to declare the Emperor the Omnissiah.[1b] By the time of the Heresy, Verticorda was seen as a voice of wisdom in the sometimes chaotic politics of Mars.[1c] He went on to participate on the loyalist side during the Schism of Mars, where he was killed during the defence of the Magma City.[1d]
