Orad
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Orad was the Chaplain of the Ultramarines 2nd Company, under Captain Cato Sicarius. He fought with the 2nd Company during the Assault on Black Reach[1], but died on Karthax forty-three years later, in combat with daemonic forces.[2][Needs Citation]
The exact circumstances of Orad's death were kept secret for a long time, even from the majority of the Company; Orad had been possessed by a daemon of Nurgle and killed several of his battle brothers, before being shot down by Sergeant Vorolanus. For decades afterward, Vorolanus was shaken by the Chaplain's death - he had never thought that someone of Orad's rectitude could ever succumb to possession - and his own role in it.[2][Needs Citation]
