Orin Helmawr (born 970.M41) is the 12th recognized son of Gerontius Helmawr, the 137th Lord of Necromunda.[1d]

History

In M42, the Great Rift's Noctis Aeterna struck the Hive World and in the mayhem that followed, an Assassin's attack left Gerontius in a Stasis Casket. With their Father now unable to rule Necromunda, a power struggle broke out between Gerontius' heirs to replace him as its Imperial Commander.[1a] The Lady Credo, though, used the opportunity to launch a world-wide rebellion to end House Helmawr's rule of the Hive World.[1b]

In the mayhem that followed, many of Gerontius' heirs were killed by various forces. However, his daughter Haera Helmawr became the Imperial House's de facto ruler[1d], after she asked her surviving siblings to attend a family meeting and then killed them all.[1c] Orin and six other heirs were not there though, and they are now likely hiding to avoid their cruel Sister's grasp.[1d]
