Talon was a Contemptor Dreadnought in the Ultramarines Legion during the Horus Heresy and was later a part of the battlegroup led by Lieutenant-Commander Cerantes, against the Warmaster's forces. However during their campaign, the battlegroup was imprisoned by the Necron Lord Trazyn the Infinite, who used a Tesseract Labyrinth to place them in stasis vaults beneath his fortress on Solemnace. They were kept in Trazyn's collection of beings, who had garnered the Necron Lord's interest, until the Thirteenth Black Crusade began. When Abaddon the Despoiler personally led the Chaos forces invading Cadia to battle, Trazyn, who had come to the beleaguered world's defense, sought to aid the Imperium's shattered forces. After throwing a Tessereact Labyrinth near the Despoiler, the Necron Lord unleashed an army composed of the Imperium warriors he had captured and Talon's battlegroup was among them[1a]. Only a second had passed for the battlegroup since their capture and though Cerantes thought something was amiss, he immediately led his battlegroup against the Despoiler's forces; as they wore the symbols of Chaos. They were unable to defeat the might of the Despoiler though and the battlegroup was destroyed in battle with the Black Legion.[1b]
