Volund Ironbeard

Volun Ironbeard is the chief Iron Priest of the Wild Hunt Space Marine Chapter.

Background
The Chapter's chief Iron Priest, Volund was one of the youngest subjects of Cawl's project. Interestingly the boy followed the mad tech-priest's adept in their harvesting rather than being simply abducted. This episode was a sign of Volund’s wyrd. He was selected to become a techmarine and, along the hypno-induction during his stasis, he became apprentice of Cawl himself. His education was one of the major reason of initial distrust from the Space Wolves towards the Wild Hunt. Wolfram ordered Volund to stay on Fenris among the Iron Priest to learn their tradition and spread them to the rest of the chapter’s tech-adepts. This decision, supported by Logan Grimnar as a mean to strengthen the bonds between the sons of Russ, met a fierce opposition between the Iron Priests and required all the Great Wolf's authority to be enacted. Recently back from Fenris, Volund eagerly re-joined his brothers and started to spread the mysteries of the Iron to the other artificers. In his heart of hearts, he knows that the Primaris marines are the future of the adeptus Astartes, the natural evolution of their predecessors. And one day, maybe in other ten thousand years, a new generation of warriors will come, and the Primaris will be obsolete.
