Tannley-Drake
Tannley-Drake was a Colonel of the Pyran Dragoons.[1]
Tannley-Drake commanded Pyran forces in the Third War for Armageddon. The Pyrans were initially sent to Hell Town, a base in Armageddon's Equatorial Jungle, to receive training from the Armageddon Ork Hunters in jungle clearing operations against the Feral Orks.[1]
When the orks attacked Hell Town, Tannley-Drake clashed with Colonel Pertinax, the commander of Hell Town. Pertinax had ordered Tannley-Drake to hold a perimeter position which the Pyran believed so weak as to be tantamount to suicide. Following the battle the two officers' argument escalated to the point that Tannley-Drake challenged Pertinax to a duel. Although accounts disagree on the duel's result, the Pyrans maintain that Tannley-Drake scored first blood on Pertinax, satisfying honour.[1]
