===Nathaniel Garro=== Battle-Captain (the formal title of the 7th Captain of the [[Death Guard]]) and captain of the ''Eisenstein''. The first member. The guy who fled the massacre at [[Battle_of_Isstvan_III|Isstvan III]] and managed to bring word of the Horus Heresy to the Imperium, thanks to his honor-brother, and a very cool guy, [[Saul Tarvitz]] of the [[Emperor's Children]]. On the way there, he also became the first of the Loyalists to encounter what would later be known as the Plague Marines, as the corpses of his traitorous Legion-brothers came back to life as they traveled through the Warp. [[File:GarroArt.jpg|thumb|[[Indrick Boreale|Bald, but far from foolish.]]]] He was given a list of twenty names from Sevarian ''(see below)'' who would become the Knights-Errant, and the task of collecting them would take him all over the galaxy during the Horus Heresy, from Calth ''(through the Ruinstorm no less)'' all the way back to Isstvan III. He would attempt to sneak into the [[Phalanx]] to recruit some Imperial Fist [[Librarians]] "incarcerated" there, but was caught and turned away as they were happy enough as is. He would also win a duel with a mid-ranked Custodes, though even he admitted the effort taxed his abilities and he only won through playing to the particular individual's overconfidence. Garro would also unwittingly uncover Malcador's plans to build a new [[Grey Knights|Astartes force on Titan]] intended for the coming war ''after'' the Horus Heresy, though he initially believed it to be a Traitor force because of the secrecy involved with its construction. Partly because of those shrouded circumstances and the uncomfortable lengths the Sigillite would go to to protect humanity, Garro would repeatedly say that his ultimate fate would not lie on Titan, and previews for future BL books refer to him as "the first martyr of the Lectitio Divinatus", and martyrdom by definition ultimately involves dying. Following the assembly of the soon-to-be Grand Masters and their departure to Titan, he was released from Malcador's service to aid in the defense of Terra alongside Loken and the other Death Guard Loyalists that had accompanied him on the ''Eisenstein''. As the Siege carries, Garro is fighting on Terra when he has a premonition that Keeler will die unless Garro is by her side. At Marmax, he is spit-roasted by Mortarion, distracting the Death Guard long enough for her to escape. Garro's last experience is finally entering the Emperor's presence. Given rules as part of the lead-up to Horus Heresy Book 6 'Retribution', Garro can be a trolltastic addition to an army. He's built up as a challenge character, earning double combat resolution scores and gaining a 3+ invulnerable save. Despite this, he's not a combat monster, as ''Libertas'' is only a two-handed blade with AP3, despite having Rending. However, Garro's Death Guard resilience shows through, having ''Eternal Warrior'' AND the chance to get back from death the first time he kicks the bucket during battle.
