Ancient Rylanor

"I am Rylanor of the Emperor's Children, Ancient of Rites, Venerable of the Palatine Host, and proud servant of the Emperor of Mankind, beloved by all! I reject you now and always!"

– Ancient Rylanor's last words to his Primarch

Rylanor was the Ancient of Rites of the Emperor's Children prior to the Horus Heresy. He was interred in a Dreadnought sarcophagus following a fight with the pointy ears people. He fought alongside the Loyalists on Istvaan III, and was presumed slain, only being rediscovered alive millennia later.

His loyalty to Big E was so strong that not only did he nope'd his gene-father's offer to join Chaos (bear in mind that Fulgrim has enormous charisma that is jacked up on steroids by Daemonic shenanigans) but he even made THREE Thousand Sons sorcerers pull the middle finger on Fulgrim and let a virus bomb cook Istvaan III for a second time, killing Rylanor, and the three Thousand Sons, but also fucking over Fulgrim's pride. Seriously, he made Fulgrim lose pride. FULGRIM. THE LITERAL PERSONIFCATION OF PRIDE.

Yes, waiting 10,000 years just to shove it in Fulgrim's face was definitely worth it.
