Griselda Velade was a Trooper of the Valhallan Ice Warriors.[1]

Originally a member of the Valhallan 296th regiment, she became a member of the Valhallan 597th when the 296th was amalgamated with another regiment (the 301st) following losses taken defending the planet Corania from the tyranids.[1]

Shortly after the regiments were joined, while on board the troop ship Righteous Wrath en route to their first deployment on Gravalax, several Guardsmen from the 296th and 301st became involved in a violent mess room brawl. Velade was one of five to be singled out for severe punishment, in her case for killing another Trooper during the fight. The five were court-marshalled and were going to be sentenced to execution by the Righteous Wrath's Captain, Parjita. However, he was convinced to turn over sentencing to the regiment's Commissar, Ciaphas Cain. Cain, in turn, deferred the guards' executions and decided to transfer them to a penal legion at the next available opportunity.[1]
