Name : Thantos Enikteous
Age: 479
Appearance: Dark brown skin. A single cloudly blue eye. His left side of his face, up to his left eye, and his right leg up to mid-waist has been replaced by bionics after being mauled by a Mawloc. His skin bears many scars, on in particular is a small purple pinkish scar in the center of his abdomen. Out from it stems small purple spirals, which reach ever further with every passing decade.
Personality: Viscous fighter. Even by Astartes standards, he had lightning fast reactions, almost one par with that of the Emperor's Children of Slaanesh, and is subjected to the constant vigilance of the Chapters senior Librarians and Chaplins. However, his faith is sure and incorruptible, and his determination and force of will know no bounds. Outside of battle, he is quite friendly and talkative. Once the battle is started, he is ruthless and steadfast in his purpose. Once given an objective, he will not rest until it is completed. He is generally distrusted by people who learn of his origin and the mark on his chest, and so is eager to prove his devotion to the Emperor, more so than regular marines.
Background: Originally a high sergeant of the 5th company. Some of his notable actions were the war on Aldria Prime. This agri-world was being besieged by Tyranid forces of an unknown Hive Fleet. His squad was separated from the main force by a Mawloc attack, which had relieved itself directly underneath Thantos, resulting in the loss of a large portion of the left side of his face and his right leg. The Mawloc then set about devouring his squad, but Thantos fired his plasma pistol into the side of the mawlocs face, drawing it's attention. He then proceeded to destroy it's face and brain matter with a volley of quickly fired plasma shots, which was very risky given the temperamental and possible hazardous nature of plasma technology.
His other main notable action was on Truvia VI. Here the Blood Ravens faced a warband of the Emperor's Children. In the first drop, the commanding officer was killed by AA fire, and his drop pod sent broken into a bottomless gorge. Thantos then took command. Although the crusade was long and bloody, Thantos forced the noise marines back until the were faced with their last bastion. As the walls crumbled under the repeated fire of vindicators, Thantos' men broke through. Thantos faced the Chaos champion in single combat. Thantos wielded his power sword and plasma pistol, but the Chaos champion wielded a Blissgiver. Whilst they were both Astartes, the Chaos Chapion has the blessings of Slaanesh, so was faster than even Thantos. Eventually, the Chaos champion broke through his defense and scraped the skin of his chest. However, is was enough to send Thantos into a coma of ecstasy.
Whilst the battle raged around his writhing corpse, a battle was taking place in Thantos' mind. He was fighting a losing battle to overcome the imbued of the daemon in the blissgiver and escape from the coma. As if he was tied to the fate of the planet, whenever he was about to lose, it looked like the loyalist forces would lose, and whenever he started to win slightly, the Emperor's children were pushed back. This continued for several hours, until in one last desperate push, Thantos broke free of his shackles and gasped upright. Around was a scene of pure carnage, corpses everywhere, but the banners of the Blood Ravens were still held high. In his break-out of the coma, he has also broken a barrier between his mind and the warp, and started to manifest psychic powers. However, he was not yet free from Chaos taint. Where the Blissgiver had pierced his skin, there was a purple scar, with thin faint purple spirals coming off of it. Many feared it was a sign of corruption, but Thantos pleaded his faith, and swayed the objections. However, he was place under near constant supervision of the highest ranking Librarians and Chaplins which were to enact the Emperor's mercy at the first signs of his corruption.
Weapons: Flamer, Force rod, Bolt pistol and Frag grenades
Equipment: Psychic hood which has thin wraithbone vein which helps the psychic hood act in a similar way to a Ghost helm. The reason for this was, as he has escaped the clutch of a daemon before, and bares the peculiar mark on his chest, it was suspected that he would be more liable to daemonic possession, and as such a Ghost helm was stripped back and part of it inserted so that his psychic hood acts like a ghost helm, masking his presence in the warp from daemons. Artificer armour which has several anti-chaos wards and lithergies to offer Thantos as much protection as possible. Obviously, a large portion of his body is bionics.
Hope this is ok!
