The Internet- where men are men, women are men, and kids are undercover cops

I'm still making my way through the Horus Heresy series. One of the things I notice is that in many Legions, there is a clear next in command/confidant that, while secondary to the Primarch, is clearly head and shoulders above his fellows in the Legion- or at least, a clear finest warrior, like Corswain, whose reputation is known throughout the Legions. Kharn, Sevatar, Sigismund, Abaddon, etc. Some Legions might not have such an individual, but most do. Who are the Rikers of the Legions that I'm missing?

Dark Angels - Corswain
Missing
Emperor's Children
Iron Warriors
White Scars
Space Wolves - Bjorn?
Imperial Fists - Sigismund
Night Lords - Sevatar
Blood Angels - Raldoron?
Iron Hands
Missing
World Eaters - Kharn
Ultramarines - Marius Gage
Death Guard - Typhus
Thousand Sons - Ahriman
Sons of Horus - Abaddon
Word Bearers - Erebus?
Salamanders - Artellus Numeon
Raven Guard
Alpha Legion

As far as the Iron Warriors I must respectfully disagree with Big Mac.

Warmaster Forrix was the Iron Warriors First Captain and so was essentially Perturabo’s right hand man. As for their best/most ruthless fighter, that would probably go to Golg.

“Victory is not an abstract concept, it is the equation that sits at the heart of strategy. Victory is the will to expend lives and munitions in attack, overmatching the defenders’reserves of manpower and ordnance. As long as my Iron Warriors are willing to pay any price in pursuit of victory, we shall never be defeated.” - The Primarch Perturabo, Master of the Iron Warriors

At the time of the HH, Bjorn is definitely not the main man in the Vlka Fenryka. He is still quite young and inexperienced at this stage.

Though guards may sleep and ships may lay at anchor, our foes know full well that big guns never tire.

Russ does seem to have adopted him as something of a protogie though

This is very true. Not quite on a par with some of the others, but clearly with potential to become so.

we know he's Russ' eventual sucessor, and I think Russ knows there is something there (wolfsbane referances his knowing their wyrd's are linked a few times)

If/when they bring Russ back, I REAAALLY hope we get to see in a novel, Russ and Bjorn's first meeting upon his return

Blood Angels is definitely Raldoron. He is First Captain and Equerry to Sanguinius.

The black rage is within us all. Lies offer no shield against it. You speak of donning the black of duty for the red of brotherhood; but it is the black of rage you shall wear when the end comes.
