'''Naaman''' was a [[Dark Angels]] [[Sergeant]] and special character until [[4th Edition]] when his stats were removed from the codex and only a short passage about his life remains.
He fought the [[Orks]] on [[Piscina IV]] and seemed to be part of the initial scouting force. He was the only one to survive the counter-attack of [[Nazdreg]] but later managed to lead a team of [[Scouts]] through the Ork lines and sentries to discover and relay information about the [[tellyporta]] systems used by Nazdreg to such deadly effect. He then called in the [[Deathwing]] to attack and destroy the site. He fought many counter-attacks to prevent reinforcements from overrunning the site but he was eventually killed by an exploding [[Ork DreadnoughtDeff Dread]]. His name was added to the Book of Honour for the Dark Angels.<sup>1</sup>
The small [[Third Edition]] [[Codex: Dark Angels (3rd Edition)|Codex: Dark Angels]] gives further information on his life in the form of an extract from the [[Liturgis Honorum]] of the Dark Angels Chapter, presumably the same as the Book of Honour. It is said that he was a [[Veteran Sergeant]] (rather than Sergeant, although the titles are different they are often interchangeable) of the 10th Company of Scouts and lived 823-997.[[M41]]. After the initial repulsion of the Dark Angels scout movements, he returned to the Dark Angels base of operations on [[Koth Ridge]] and that later when he was holding off the counter-attacks within Nazdreg's base, it was in order for the Deathwing to remove an energy relay from the teleportation base, presumably in order to disable it.<sup>2</sup>
