Kaedes Nex[1]

Kaedes Nex was a Moritat-Prime of the Raven Guard during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. He was known for his macabre obsession with the hunt.[1]

A dark figure among the kin who followed Corax from Deliverance, Kaedes is seen as an ill-omen by his brothers. On Kiavahr in his youth he was known as Blood Crow, an infamous murderer condemned to prison. There he remained, until Corax offered him a pardon if he fought alongside him. After enduring a painful transformation into a Space Marine, only through the favor shown to him by Corax was able to overcome the disdain of his fellow legionaries and rise through the ranks. In the grim shadow-wars fought by the Raven Guard, his murder-honed skills were employed with grim regularity.[1]

When the Raven Guard came to Isstvan V, Kaedes was among them but vanished into the wastes to stalk traitors on his own terms. Nothing has been heard of him since.[1]

Despite his supposed disappearance, Kaedes was reported to be part of the Shattered Legions warbands present at the Siege of Cthonia.[2]
