Company Champion
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Company Champion is the greatest warrior of a company, though he is not a high-ranking officer, such as a Captain or even a Sergeant. Part of a Captain's Command Squad, they can be seen fighting in the fiercest of battles. They are armed with superior weapons and armour.[1]
Charged with upholding the honour of his Company, his Chapter and the Emperor himself, a Company Champion's primary role is to engage enemy warlords and champions in single combat, so that their commanding officer may conduct the wider battle free from interference. They also hold key roles in conducting the various rituals and ceremonies of the Chapter.[2]
