Sorot Tchure
Captain
Also known as Tchure
Homeworld: Colchis
Sorot Tchure was the Word Bearer who fired the first shot of Calth, putting Honorius Luciel down as a greeting between supposed brothers. Colchis had sent him as a friend. That was the joke, and the Ultramarines learned it in a single bolt round.
He fought Aeonid Thiel in the mess that followed and still got off the world with Kor Phaeron when the XIII started collecting apostles as proof. Tchure's war was a murder that became a campaign, then an extraction, then someone else's atrocity.
He escaped. Missing, after that, means the XVII Legion had further use for a man who could smile at a captain and then shoot him. Calth remembers Luciel first. Tchure is the footnote that pulled the trigger and lived.
