Orestinio
Orestinio is a Novamarines Captain who took part in the Plague Wars and, like most of his Chapter, he was stationed aboard the Star Fort Galatan during that conflict.[1]
When the Novamarines began receiving Primaris Space Marine reinforcements for their Chapter while serving on the Galatan, Orestinio and Chaplain Vul Direz were assigned to help them adapt to their new home and Battle Brothers. This was mostly done through the use of hypnomat memory implantation machines, but when a Primaris fought against the machines, Orestinio and the Chaplain would be there to guide their new Brothers. They would stress the importance of embracing the implantation, as it would help the Primaris understand and form a brotherhood with the Chapter; this was something of great importance, as the Novamarines continued to fight against the forces of Nurgle. When this failed to work with the Primaris Justinian Parris, Orestinio tried to be as understanding as possible and offered to perform the tattoo ritual known as remembrancing, to help the Primaris bond with the Novamarines. Parris rejected each of Orestinio's attempts to aid him, however, and as the Star Fort was entering the Parmenio warzone at that time, the disappointed Captain finally let the Primaris leave with his blessing, so Parris could train with his new squadron.[1]
