Mortarion (Lovehammer)

When the Primarchs were scattered in the Warp, Mortarion landed on Barbarus. There he was found by one of the alien warlords that terrorized the human population and brought up as his son. The young Primarch had ran away one day, seeking out his kin. While his welcome among humanity was cold, he was not deterred and in the end won the admiration and love of the people of Barbarus by protecting and leading them against the warlords.

During his campaign agaisnt them he had found a little girl, whom he named Persephone and adopted as his sister. Roughly four years later, the Emperor of Mankind and Serenity found him on Barbarus.

The first of his brothers that he met was Sanguinius and later Konrad Curze. On later occassion he met up with Angron and the two came to blows over a misunderstanding. Mortarion appears to have remained somewhat wary of Angron ever since, though they aren't hostile.

Mortarion seems to be the only person who likes Serenity's cooking, no matter how badly it tastes. At one occassion he had managed to out-drink Leman Russ.

He collects lamps, like Persephone, though he claims to be merely storing them for her.
