Drakht
Drakht is a Primaris Epistolary in the Necropolis Hawks Chapter, who is a renowned Xenos-hunter and battle-psyker.[1][2a]
History
When the Fourth Tyrannic War began, Drakht was among the Space Marines who formed a Solblade task force, to attack the newly discovered Leviathan tendrils, Nautilon and Promethor.[1][2a] During the conflict, Solblade Drakht would aid local Imperial forces in stabilizing the Iahgo System and afterwards they followed the origin point of Tyrannid bioships advancing from the neighbouring Othlor System. This led Drakht's Solblade to Othlor's Hive World Shakar, which they discovered had been conquered by the Tyranids. However, instead of being consumed and turned into a Dead World, Shakar had been almost completely covered in a membrane-like structure.[1][2b]
His forces noted vast quantities of non-Tyranid life being held in biostasis beneath the membrane and that numerous bioships were feeding off of Shakar. Before the Solblade could discover more though, the Tyranids became aware of their presence and the Xenos launched a massive counter-attack that left the Solblade no choice but to retreat. This became the Imperium's first encounter with the Tyranids' Larder Worlds and Drakht is currently rallying with the Solblades Pormannon and Chesna, so that he can return to Shakar.[1][2b]
