Demetros was a Captain of the Imperial Fists Chapter.[1]

He led the Imperial defence of Zincali VI against a Chaos army led by Lord H'raxor. During H'raxor's invasion, he was also targeted by a Black Legion warband led by Captain Scaevolla, who was hunting down the gene-seed descendants of a Heresy-era Imperial Fist named Aleph. Demetros was the latest in a series of Scaevolla's targets.[1]

Scaevolla and his Chaos Space Marines broke through the outer defences of the city that Demetros's forces had fortified and the two Captains dueled each other. Although Scaevolla wanted to lose the battle and finally die, having grown weary of his existence and of the Long War, the Powers of Chaos forced him to fight, and he would go on to win the battle and kill Demetros. Demetros's skull was later incorporated into the Altar of the Four Gods on the planet Sebaket.[1]
