Editing Trajann Valoris

'''Trajann Valoris''' is the current Captain-General of the [[Adeptus Custodes]], and as of writing he is the only named HQ available to the Custodes that can be fielded on the tabletop.  He features prominently in the novel ''Watchers of the Throne'', where he is convinced by the-then Imperial Chancellor Lev Tieron to take a seat on the [[High Lords of Terra]] in the hopes of overturning the law keeping the Custodes tied down to Terra ('''officially'''; ''unofficially'' the Custodes have been ranging far and wide since at LEAST the 36th Millenium). Said law eventually got repealed ''anyway'', partially due to the action of a technically-unsanctioned mission of Custodes and [[Sisters of Silence]], but it can be assumed that him being part of the bureaucracy now helped formalize the return of the Talons of the Emperor to the battlefields of the 42nd Millenium.

On a side note, his portrayal in the Codex does not match up AT ALL with how he was described in ''Watchers of the Throne''.

===Codex Biography===

Valoris took over the post of Captain-General when his predecessor Andros Launceddre fell at the Battle of the Black Pyre. Many claim that he's the greatest warrior ever to hold the position since the Horus Heresy. In his first decade of service alone, he ran '''two''' successful Blood Games, and this record remains unbroken in the present day.  During his tenure among the Allarus Custodians participated in the destruction of the Space Hulk ''Mournful Siren'' and the defeat of the [[Genestealer Cult]] of the Emperor's Writhing Shadow, earning many names for his deeds.

Valoris has been noted to be unusually proactive, preferring a strategy of so-called "active defense" in dealing with threats to the Throneworld;
