Kolo
Kolo was a Legionary line trooper in the Imperial Fists Legion and defended the Imperial Palace, near the end of the Horus Heresy.[1]
Kolo was born in Terra's Mid-Afrik and became an Imperial Fists Aspirant, when the Ruinstorm prevented the Legion from continuing to recruit from Inwit. As he trained to become a Legionary, Kolo had hoped to help defeat the Imperium's Xenos foes, in order to fulfill his dream of fighting for a greater future for Mankind. However when he finally became a Legionary, two years before the Heresy's end, Kolo was instead put into Captain Hanfeld's Company and charged with protecting the Imperial Palace from Horus' forces. He stood guard over the Palace's Dusk Wall and when the Siege of Terra began, Kolo was dauntless and implacable in protecting it from the traitorous invaders. The actions he performed in the Siege resulted in Kolo being declared a hero and earned him the epithet, Bulwark for his deeds. Kolo, though, would find no glory in the name's earning and instead yearned for the boredom he faced before the Siege began.[1]
