Orpheo

Orpheo[1]

Orpheo is a Captain in the Blood Angels Chapter, who commands the respect of his Battle Brothers and is a veteran of many wars.[1]

History

He commands the Sword of Baal, which was part of a Blood Angels fleet that was enveloped by the Great Rift's birth. The giant Warp Storm damaged the Strike Cruiser and killed many of its crew, before only the Sword of Baal managed to escape back to Realspace. The Strike Cruiser was then left stranded above the world Niades, which soon sent the Sword of Baal a high priority transmission. Due to the loss of so many of the Strike Cruiser's Blood Angels, Orpheo decided to investigate the transmission on his own and descended to Niades. However after he arrived, the Captain was set upon by Genestealers and the Sword of Baal lost contact with Orpheo. This soon prompted the surviving Blood Angels aboard the Strike Cruiser to begin searching Niades for the missing Captain.[1] After being injured in the conflict, he now resides in a Dreadnought, the same one previously occupied by the now deceased battle brother Ignis.[2]

Notes

Orpheo is a character in the Angels of Death (Animated Series).[1]
