Brother-Captain Corvane Valar was commander of the Raven Guard's 5th Battle Company during the 13th Black Crusade and the Kathur Reclamation. Under his command the Raven Guard deployed half of 5th Company and the Strike Cruiser Second Shadow. Captain Valar had fought with the Cadian 88th Shock Troops during siege of Kasr Vallock[1a]: and formed some sort of personal relationship with its commander, Colonel Josuan Lockwood.

During the Reclamation he ordered his men to launch a fake assault[1b] on the Death Guard battleship Terminus Est, instead of carrying out a boarding action in a futile attempt to delay the destruction of the Imperial fleet in orbit of Kathur. Covered by this fake assault, all Battle-Brothers made planetfall and begin their hit-and-run attacks against advancing Death Guard Traitor Astartes.[1c]

The fate of captain Valar is not clear, but it is highly possible he was slain by Typhus.
