Quick question about holocost.
It says place the template in contact with the brother captin. what happens if he is dead (or wasnt purchased?)
The squad buys it. The squad can come without a brother captin (if the squad is a bodyguard for the grand master).

So, can the holocost power be used if there is no such brother captin?

The squad casts it.

You just place it in contact with a GKT instead.

Well since this is you make da call, I'm calling that you can use it, put it in contact with the grand master.

Yes, they use the GM for the focusing of the power. If the GM leaves the unit, they can no longer use the power. The GM may also use the power by himself.
