Kardan Stronos
Iron Father, Head of the Iron Council
Also known as Iron Father Stronos
Homeworld: Medusa
Kardan Stronos is the Iron Father the Iron Hands keep reappointing, which for a Chapter that refuses a permanent master is as close as Medusa comes to a confession. He has held the Iron Council's chair for centuries of campaigns because the calculus keeps landing on him.
Ferrus is gone. The Clan Companies still argue. Stronos is the one who can make the argument finish in a war rather than a schism. He is flesh enough to hate weakness and steel enough that the hate looks like doctrine, which is why Medusa keeps doing the maths and getting the same name.
Other Chapters have Chapter Masters. The Iron Hands have a recurring answer named Stronos.
