Gunther[1]

Gunther was a member of the Imperial Fists 64th Squad, 344th Company.[1]


History

Gunther was a Legion Veteran, having served on Terra in the Unification War prior to the Great Crusade.[1]

During the Crusade, Gunther earned the Veteran's Cross. He was a survivor of the War of the Howling Gyre; as a result he was entitled to colour portions of his power armour black.[1]

The 64th squad was recalled when Horus betrayed the Imperium and was sent to serve on the Oath of Stone. When the Iron Warriors attacked the Imperial Fists, Gunther and his squad performed a void assault against the grand cruiser Atropos, using their jump packs to propel across the void as the vessel closed. Within minutes of the assault the Oath of Stone was destroyed though and any members of the 64th squad that survived the explosion were cast into the void. Nothing more is known of the fate of Gunther, thousands of his brothers, or the Atropos.[1]
