Ackolon
Ackolon was an Apothecary of the Black Templars Chapter.[1]
He was part of a chapter task force sent to the planet Stygia XII to reclaim the abandoned keep of Montgisard, where they would inter the fallen Sword Brother Ezekial Yesod within a Dreadnought sarcophagus. Matters were complicated, however, by the existence of a Chaos Cult that had arisen on Stygia XII and claimed the keep as their base of operations. Nonetheless the Space Marines were able to make their way to Montgisard's vaults; Dorner and Gerard stood outside to defend the Marines within while they installed Ezekial in his shell.[1]
The cultists led an attack on the vault and Dorner was killed by a lucky shot that caught him in the neck. Although Gerard held the entrance for a while, the cultists turned the tide after the arrival of their rogue psykers, who killed Gerard. Ackolon sealed the vault door, but the enemy witches' mental influence caused Chaplain Mathias Vlain to shoot the Techmarines overseeing Ezekial. Mathias fought against the mental assault, allowing Ackolon to shoot him, leaving the Apothecary the only defender of the vault. Despite this, Ezekial was successfully activated and strode out of the vault to join the fight. Ackolon's wounds forced him to remain in the vault; although he was found in the aftermath of the battle by Neophyte Helbrecht, Ackolon succumbed to his injuries and died.[1]
