Zadakiel was the former Company Master of the Dark Angels Chapter's Fifth Company.[1]


Biography

Zadakiel led the Fifth Company in defending the planet Honoria from the Orks of Waaagh! Groblonik.[2a] When Warboss Groblonik led its Boyz in an attack on the capital city, Aurelianum, the Dark Angels responded, intending to break the Waaagh! by killing its leader. Zadakiel fought a duel with the Warboss and lost; his life was saved by the intervention of Interrogator-Chaplain Puriel, but the severity of his wounds forced him to enter a sus-an coma.[2b] Sergeant Balthasar assumed command of the Fifth Company in Zadakiel's absence.[2c]

During a battle on Stern's Rememberance, he was killed by the Hellbrute of the Crimson Slaughter known as Mortis Metalikus and his position in the 5th Company was succeeded by Master Balthasar.[1][3]

Trivia

Zadakiel (from Hebrew for "Righteousness of God" or"Grace of God") is the archangel of freedom, benevolence and mercy.
