Profile:
Lion El’Jonson, first of the Emperor’s Primarchs, was rediscovered on the forested, knight-ridden world of Caliban. A master tactician and warrior-philosopher, he quickly rose to lead the Order of knightly warriors and unify the planet. Upon reunion with the Emperor, he was given command of the I Legion—later named the Dark Angels.
Reserved and calculating, Jonson’s loyalty to the Imperium was absolute, but his methods were veiled in secrecy and driven by long-sighted strategies. During the Horus Heresy, the Lion was often distant from the main theaters of war, pursuing his own campaigns against traitors, independent of the broader Loyalist effort. His rivalry with his brother Leman Russ and estrangement from other Primarchs left him isolated.
After the fall of Caliban, a civil war erupted between Jonson’s loyalists and the Fallen—those among the Dark Angels who turned traitor. Jonson disappeared during this conflict, presumed dead, his last battle ending in the heart of the ruined fortress-monastery. Unknown to most, he survived, entering a deep stasis beneath The Rock, where he slept for ten millennia.
Now awakened in the Era Indomitus, the Lion fights once more. Cloaked in relic armor and wielding the blade Fealty, he leads forces across the Imperium Nihilus, gathering loyal warriors and confronting threats with brutal precision. Grim, burdened by history, and driven by duty, he remains a warrior without peer, ever the Emperor’s blade in the dark.
Notable Armament:
– Fealty (Blade)
– The Emperor’s Shield
– Lion’s helm (worn by Supreme Grand Master Azrael)
