Rylanor the Unyielding

Rylanor “the Unyielding” — the venerable Contemptor Dreadnought and “Ancient of Rites” of the Emperor’s Children, mortally wounded in battles with the eldar decades before the Heresy and interred in a dreadnought sarcophagus. He took the place of Saul Tarvitz in the landing on Isstvan III and, betrayed by Horus, rallied the surviving loyalists of the III Legion.
