Verpall
Verpall was Captain of the Iron Knights Chapter's First Company when the Ork Warlord known as The Beast invaded the Imperium.
When Koorland, the last surviving member of the Imperial Fists Chapter, issued the Last Wall protocol, the Iron Knights Chapter Master Malfons received it, but was unable to reach the Phall System; before Koorland led the fleets of the Crimson Fists, Fists Exemplar, Black Templars and Excoriators in attacking The Beast's Attack Moon that hung in Terra's orbit. They would later join the battle after it began however and after the Attack Moon's remaining defenses were destroyed, the scions of Dorn launched a mass invasion of the Ork weapon[1a]. Disaster struck however, when Malfons was killed by an Ork Warboss, while taking part in an attack that destroyed the Teleporter deep within the Attack Moon[1b]; which caused Verpall to take command of the Iron Knights.[1c]
He would become the Iron Knights' next Chapter Master and was later charged by Koorland with protecting Terra, along with Chapter Masters Cuarrion and Vorkogun[2a], while the Lord Commander led the remaining Imperium forces at his command, in a second invasion of The Beast's Homeworld Ullanor.[2b]
