Biting Jackal
The Biting Jackal was a Wrathhost Gladius Escort and was among the Chapter's forces serving as part of the Wardens of the Gauntlet.[1]
History
The Escort was later among the Wrathhost's fleet that took part in purging the Pirate infested Stones of Cavadi at the request of Inquisitor Kirs Drova. The Inquisitor and the Wrathhost both thought it would be an easy campaign, as they did not believe the numerous Pirate groups within the asteroid field, would defend each other. They were soon proven wrong, as the Pirates worked together surprisingly well to fight the Chapter and a grueling guerilla war began. After the Wrathhost suffered the loss of the Biting Jackal, the Coiled Viper and the Mistral became severely damaged, Inquisitor Drova was forced to call upon the Imperial Navy to assist in defeating the Pirates.[1]
