History[]

Infancy[]

Duncan Thaddeum was born long time ago in a very poor family of Thedosia, unlike many of his battle-brothers who came from the wealthy nobility of the planet. However, when his father heard that the Wardens were seeking for young boys to join them, he took Duncan, only aged of 12 years, to the city of Helmwall to give him to the chapter, hoping a better future for his son.

Once he arrived at the Greyhold, Duncan, and the others boys who came with him, met the former First Warden Jorge Hulio, and the Grand Vigilant Yorus Corb, the eldest Space Marine of the chapter. After this, they were starting their first trials.

During these trials, almost half of the aspirants would die, and only a few amongst the survivors would be able to complete the last trial, the Enlightenment, the others died or became Serfs.

Duncan passed this ordeal quite easily for a boy of this age, and was allow to start his new life as a Neophytes of the Emperor's Wardens.

After many centuries of service, he was promoted to the rank of Warden-Commander of the 4th House, until 9.150.975.M40, when he was chosen to become the new First Warden of the chapter, after the lost of his predecessor during a massive campaign against a powerful Ork Waaagh!.
