Juball
Juball was a member of the Death Guard during the onset of the Horus Heresy.[1]
He served under Crysos Morturg when the Imperium's forces were sent to put down Vardus Praal's rebellion on Isstvan III, under the leadership of Horus. He survived the ending of that battle only to bear witness to Horus's betrayal when the Life-eater virus was launched into the planet's atmosphere; followed by a fire storm as it was ignited. Juball's squad was too far away to reach the safety of bunkers, so Crysos Morturg led them to a cargo hold and sealed them in, hoping it would be enough to protect them. Though they survived the fire storm as it swept over them, Juball cried out soon afterwards as the Life-eater virus had found its way inside his armour and began to dissolve him. As Juball died screaming Morturg turned his flamer on his Brother, hoping to protect the rest of his squad from possible contamination.[1]
