Yotun

Yotun was one of the original founding members of the Grey Knights Chapter.[1]


Biography

Originally a Rune Priest of the Space Wolves, Yotun attempted to hide his Fenrisian accent after joining the Knights-Errant. Shortly before the Siege of Terra he was thought killed in battle against Chaos Cultists on Terra, but later appeared before the rest of the Knights-Errant alive and well.[1]

He later stood before the Emperor alongside the other recruits Malcador the Sigillite had selected in the hours before the Siege of Terra and was given command of one of the original brotherhoods.[1]

Yotun's definite identity remains unknown, but it is possible that he was Fyodor Stromgren.

Trivia

Yotun may be a reference to Jötunn, the Norse term for a race of trolls/giants.
