Fitzmander was an Imperial Navy Captain who commanded the Oberon Class Battleship Green Lake and was known as a skilled pirate hunter.[1]

He took part in the Third War for Armageddon, where he served under his old friend Admiral Parol, and was charged with hunting down Ork vessels that were somehow teleporting their forces across vast distances, onto planets the Waaagh! had invaded. At first Fitzmander was very successful in his mission and destroyed a large number of Ork ships, including the Space Hulk Skullbanga, but this all changed when he attacked the Battleship Dethdeala. As Fitzmander gave the order to close in on the Dethdeala, the Ork ship unexpectedly teleported a large number of Orks aboard Green Lake. Fitzmander was caught off guard by the sudden invasion and died fighting beside his crew, when the teleported Orks overwhelmed them and destroyed the Green Lake. When word of the Green Lake's destruction reached Admiral Parol, he was tortured by the news of his friend's death and ordered an even more intense search to locate and destroy any Ork ships with teleporters.[1]
