Strike Force Taurus Strike Force Taurus was assembled for rapid deployment aboard the chapter strike cruiser, Legend of Agamemnon. Although they fight most commonly with the enemies of the Imperium, they have developed a great hatred for the Black Templars space marines. This hatred originates from the discovery of an Informant Cult secretly created by the Angels of Vengeance to recover information on the Fallen. Discovering and determining these informants to be heretics, Inquisitor Tyrus called upon the Black Templars to assist him in eradicating them from their library fortress on the planet Kendal IV. Unfortunately, Strike Force Taurus was already present on the planet, which allowed many of the Informants and critical contents of the library to be preserved. Although ultimately driven from Kendal IV, Chaplain Ahzor vowed revenge upon both Tyrus and the Black Templars as they fled the system. |
Grand Master Ekunem As the Chapter's Patricarch he generally only leads his force into battle during larger engagements. |
Librarian Desusoth Like Grand Master Ekunem, he infrequently leads the chapters forces into battle. He has primarily been involved with the organization of the Informant Cult, and is often seen accompanied by the Cult's acolytes. |
Chaplain Ahzor The primary leader of Strike Force Taurus, he is a veteran of many campaigns including their legendary conflict with the Black Templars on Kendal IV. |
Captain Uskot He was also present at Kendal IV and has served as Ahzor's right hand in many engagements. It is said that Ahzor trusts Uskot above all other members of the chapter. |
