So who is the Chapter Master of the Howling Griffons?

Is it Kenot Friche or Alvaro?

• Alvaro (Lexicanum) 

  • Alvaro is the current Chapter Master of the Howling Griffons.

    During the Third War for Armageddon he led the First Company of the Chapter from the Battle Barge Force of Destiny, where they engaged in the persecution of a company of Night Lords Traitor Legionnaires under the command of the infamous Daemon Prince Periclitor. At the conclusion of the Indomitus Crusade, he and his Chapter were among the Imperium's forces that Lord Commander Guilliman led to Ultramar's defense, during the Plague Wars.

  •  

    The original version of the Dark Imperium (Novel), states that Alvaro is the current Chapter Master of the Howling Griffons.

     

• Kenot Friche (Lexicanum)
  • Kenot Friche is the current Chapter Master of the Howling Griffons and he is leading its forces that are taking part in the Plague Wars.
  • In the 2nd Edition of Dark Imperium, Kenot Friche is stated to be Chapter Master of the Howling Griffons

So who I am I choosing as my Chapter Master... Kenot Friche. There is no information about him outside his name and this allows me to forge my own narrative for my Howling Griffons. As part of that goal as my own force but still wanting to keep them aligned as Ultramarine Successor Chapter, I am using Ultramarine keyword for them.  This will allow me I have a very cool Chapter Master model  in the Form of Marneus Augustus Calagar in Armour of Antilochus. And if I decided down the line to add more Howling Griffon version of Ultramarine characters I can add Chief Librarian Varro Tigurius, Master of Sanctity Ortan Cassius, Antaro Chronus (commanding the Land Raider Excelsor) and Scout Sgt Torias Telion.

So as the title says this is the mock up stage and there will be lots of of work to de-Ultramarine Calgar.  Enough talk its preview time

How the head looks in the Armor which working title is "Panoply Renomee". Look at all the U that have to be change
