Legendary Names3

This Grand Master is Kaldor Draigo, Lord of the Titan — the named apex of the brotherhood's honours, a warrior who has walked the warp itself and returned unbroken. A Grand Master may take this title on rolling a 6 for a random advance, or for a chosen cost of 12 experience, and only the Grey Knights may claim it.

BENEFIT. Draigo bears the master-crafted Titansword, a relic Nemesis blade of peerless armour-cutting edge that carries the Force trait against every target. He re-rolls all failed Willpower tests without needing his own aura, and once per battle he may automatically banish a single DAEMON he is in base contact with, no roll required.

DRAWBACK. Draigo is a beacon the warp itself hunts. He may never be held in reserve and must always deploy on the board, and any enemy DAEMON gang gains bonus renown for taking him Out of Action. The Neverborn know his name, and every one of them comes for him.

This honour-title is earned in blood: any Grey Knight who banishes a Greater Daemon may be raised to Brother-Captain, on rolling a 5 for a random advance or for a chosen cost of 9 experience.

BENEFIT. The Brother-Captain gains a point of Willpower and projects a lesser command aura, letting nearby Grey Knights re-roll a single failed Nerve test each round. Its Nemesis weapon re-rolls failed Wounds against DAEMON fighters — the veteran's hatred of the Neverborn sharpened into certainty.

DRAWBACK. The Brother-Captain is held to the chapter's highest standard. It must always be the fighter to lead any charge against a DAEMON when able, and if it ever flees a battle it loses the title until it banishes another Greater Daemon to earn it back. The honour is a burden as much as a reward, and the order does not let it be worn lightly.

This honour-title is earned by holding the line alone: any Grey Knight who holds a warp-breach or objective by itself may be named a Warden of the Breach, on rolling a 5 for a random advance or for a chosen cost of 9 experience.

BENEFIT. The Warden gains a point of Toughness while it holds an objective or consecration site, and its Aegis counts as though one extra Grey Knight were present even when it stands entirely alone. The warrior that once held the breach need never fear standing alone again.

DRAWBACK. The Warden is bound to the ground it swears to hold. It may never voluntarily leave an objective it controls while an enemy is within charge range, and if that objective is lost while the Warden still stands, it suffers a point of experience penalty — the vigil broken, its honour stained until it is redeemed.
