Bale Star (Dreadblade Knight)
The Bale Star is a Dreadblade Knight, who along with the Dreadblade Hand of Mourning, were once Imperial Freeblade Knights. However, their downfall began when they fought to defend Nemendghast from an invasion by the Black Legion forces of Vorash Soulflayer.[1]
Despite their efforts, the Imperial world was conquered and the two Freeblades were captured and brought before Soulflayer. The Master of Possession then subjugated the Freeblades to horrific Chaos rituals that they endured for a year before finally being broken; each then swore fealty to Soulflayer. Now reborn as Bale Star and Hand of Mourning, the Master of Possession then gave his loyal Dreadblades quests to increase his power. Bale Star was dispatched to slay the Barroness of Tanika, reputed to be the greatest duellist in the galaxy, and to then drag her felled Knight suit back to Nemendghast.[1]
