Ulfreyr Ketilsson is a Firstborn Space Wolves Wolf Priest, who was sent as an envoy to the Wolfspear by his Wolf Lord, Logan Grimnar, to judge if the Ultima Founding Successor Chapter was worthy of being their kin.[1]

History

This was a similar task shared by a number of other Space Wolves and Ketilsson had judged several other Ultima Successors, before he reached the Wolfspear. Upon reaching the Chapter's Homeworld, 108/Beta-Kalapus-9.2, with the fleet he commanded, the Wolf Priest met with Chapter Master Senavael. Ketilsson was also accompanied by the Space Wolves Gjarmin and Troels, who would serve as his councilors in the matter. Ketilsson told Senavael the reason for his arrival and then stated that on the orders of Logan Grimnar, the three Space Wolves were to serve beside the Wolfspear until Ketilsson made his judgement. Senavael rejected this, though, claiming that the Wolf Priest's Wolf Lord had no authority over his Chapter. Ketilsson agreed that was true and told the Chapter Master they would leave, if the Wolfspear were not interested in being judged worthy of being kin to the Space Wolves.[1]

Before the three could do so, however, Senavael stopped them. He then asked if the Wolfspear would be demeaned or judged harshly, as Ketilsson judged them. The Wolf Priest readily assured him, that was not what they had come to 108/Beta-Kalapus-9.2 to do. While the Wolfspear's worth was being considered, Ketilsson mainly sought to help impart the Space Wolves' heritage to their Successor Chapter. Upon hearing this, the Chapter Master agreed to allow the Wolf Priest to stay and make his decision. Ketilsson accepted this and then made the Wolfspear Bjarni Arvisson his intermediary to the Successor Chapter. The three Space Wolves and Arvission would then dine together and share knowledge about their respective Chapters to each other. Then as night fell on Beta-Kalapus, the Space Wolves fought beside the Wolfspear against the Daemons that daily invaded their Homeworld. It was as the two forces clashed, that Ketilsson decided the Wolfspear were worthy and contacted his fleet. Aboard it, was the large force of Space Wolves, the Wolf Lord Logan Grimnar had granted him to bestow upon the Wolfspear if they passed Ketilsson's judgment. At the Wolf Priest's command they deployed to Beta-Kalapus and arrived shortly after the invading Daemons were defeated. With these new reinforcements, the Wolfspear was brought to a full 1000 Space Marines and with his task now done, Ketilsson departed with his fleet shortly afterwards.[1]
