Hierek Mon was a Captain in the Sons of Horus Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy and was a member of its Warrior Lodges.[1]

History

He was well known within the Sons of Horus for his skill in void warfare and had an enviable kill-tally in the later years of the Great Crusade. When the Horus Heresy began, Mon joined his Legion in turning upon the Imperium and by then had command of the Destroyer Grey Talon. The Talon had a reputation that promised advancement for its crew, but its prestige ended due to Mon's actions during the Battle of Isstvan III. As the purging of the Traitor Legion's Loyalists occurred, Mon had been ordered to remain as part of the high-orbit blockade above Isstvan III, but he joined the warships bombarding the world after the Primarch Angron personally took part in the battle. For his defiance, Mon was placed in a suicidal position during the Traitors' fleet deployment in the Dropsite Massacre. Though Mon was expected to atone for his failures by dying in the battle, his skill kept the Grey Talon alive, as the fleets of the Loyalist Legions were shattered. However his luck finally ran out, after his ship was boarded by Salamanders, led by Captain Xa'ven, who used a Traitor Dropship Lander they had captured on Isstvan V to get past the Talon's guard. In the boarding attack that followed, Mon and the forces under his command were killed and the Grey Talon was taken by the Loyalists, who used it to escape from the Traitor Legions.[1]
