Atreus Kadachi

Atreus Kadachi is the current Shadow Lord (equivalent of a Chapter Master) of the Shadow Monarchs Astartes chapter, High Lord of the Falmorian Council and Warrior-Hero of the Oregon Sector. A highly accomplished swordsman, Atreus is one of the few people capable of going toe-to-toe with Abbaddon the Despoiler and living to tell the tale. A great many champions have met their end by the blade of Atreus's sword.

Not only is Atreus a capable foot soldier, he is also a great leader. During the Second War for Armageddon and the 13th Black Crusade he would lead his chapter against orks and the forces of Chaos respectively, ultimately contributing much to the outcomes of both battles, not to mention the various skirmishes in between.

Atreus was originally the Company Champion of the 8th Company of the Raven Guard. When the Shadow Monarchs were first created, he was one of the first to be sent to the newly-created chapter, in this case as its Chapter Master. Atreus was made Chapter Master for his experience in dealing with xenos species; Orks and Tau up to that point, although he did brush uneventfully with Tyranids just prior to the Battle of Maccrage. This met the specific mission of the Shadow Monarchs, to counter and defeat major xenos forces. Atreus was assigned to the chapter in 745.M41, given command of a force of 200 marines, provided with geneseed to make 1300 more, and sent off to begin preparations for the chapter.

Ironically, the Shadow Monarchs were not initially deployed to deal with the threat they had been created to counter. Instead they were deployed to destroy and bring to justice a number of other chapters that had gone renegade. Atreus personally led the Shadow Monarchs on these missions to eliminate the renegades. Between the years of 747.M41 and 941.M41 it is estimated that Atreus had beheaded three dozen high-ranking Astartes like chapter masters, captains and champions, although an exact number is impossible to find as the Inquisition has held back all records of these engagements.

Wargear
Artificer Armour - Atreus wears a master-crafted piece of Artificer Armour, fitting for the role of the Shadow Lord. His particular suit resembles the Mark VI Corvus pattern helmet crossed with Mark VII Aquila body and limbs.

Raven's Call - This is a relicblade dating back from the days of the Horus Heresy, created by one of the Salamander survivors of the Drop Site Massacre for a member of the Raven Guard who also survived. Over the centuries this weapon drifted into Atreus's hands. The sword is cosmically sharp, able to cut through the power armour of Astartes without trouble. Its blade is tinted black and the handguard features the wings of a raven.

Master-crafted plasma pistol - Atreus possesses a plasma pistol for ranged engagements that take the extra punch of a plasma bolt to destroy.
