Biography

Geryon was a Veteran Sergeant at the time of the Lamptan Assault, in which he was gravely injured and taken to the Emperor's Grace.^[1]

Interred in a Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought, Geryon took part in the assault on the Necron Tomb Ship Dead Hand in the Amarah Void Battle. Teleporting aboard alongside Lord Moloc, another Contemptor, and thirty Terminators, his Power Fist was destroyed when it was parried by the blade of the Overlord. Severely wounded by the Overlord, Geryon's life was saved when Lord Moloc intervened before the final blow was dealt. It is unknown if Geryon was swept into the void with Moloc before the tomb ship retreated, and if so if he was recovered alive.^[2]
