[B]Name:[/b] Rayvius 'Moyses' Skalterion [B]Age:[/b] 261 [B]Physical Description:[/b] [img=http://www.40kings.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Scout.jpg/img] Appearance is not indicative of equipment. Rayvius has green eyes, black hair and stands at 7'9'' and weighs 792 pounds. He received a burn scar on his left neck that he received during his service in the Deathwatch; he has not revealed the source of the injury, claiming Inquisitorial Secrecy. [B]Character History:[/b] Rayvius was born on Aegyptus, a backwater planet that was abandoned by the Imperium during the Africanus Crusade for tactical reasons, primarily due to a warp storm due to hit and isolate the system. As soon as the Imperium abandoned the system, Dark Eldar appeared, enslaving the entire population. Rayvius escaped because a Dark Angels scout took him off the planet as a child, moved by his mother's plaintive pleas for deliverance. Rayvius was raised as a chapter serf by the Dark Angels and was a full marine by 16, where he promtly joined his battle-brothers in the Africanus Crusade. He never forgot his homeworld, and was haunted by his last moments with his mother. When he was 42, he requested to be sent to Aegyptus to help liberate the planet. The warp storm isolating the system had passed, but the Imperial forces deemed the planet not worth the expense of liberating it. He asked to join a unit of nine other Imperial specialists, agents and assassins. Rayvius' sergeant allowed his request, seeing how Ray's memories of his homeworld distracted him and hoping to excise him of the burden. Rayvius and his team became known on Aegyptus as the Plagues, and after a forty year campaign, managed to sow enough chaos among the Dark Eldar occupiers to allow a liberation force to be validated and force the Dark Eldar off the planet, culminating in a directed orbital bombardment and the assassination of the Archon of the Kabal. The people of Aegyptus immortalized him as the tenth Plague: the Angel of Death, and gave him the honorary name 'Moyses,' which he adopted without reservation. He went on to serve as a scout and a tactical marine during the remainder of the Africanus Crusade, though with no exceptionally notable heroics. At the close of the Africanus Crusade, he was offered a position in Deathwatch when he was 117, where he spent a century among their forces as a kill-marine. His most notable actions in the Deathwatch was the cleansing of the Velcorn system's four habitable planets of genestealer infestation within a week, all on his own. [B]Psychological Profile:[/b] Rayvius is a loner, a trait he developed in his forty year guerrilla campaign on Aegyptus and his century as a lone kill-marine in the Deathwatch. He is most comfortable working alone or in small teams, and is just as likely to be seen in a scout's carapace armor as he is in Power Armor. He has developed sympathy for the common imperial citizen and works well with non-Astartes organizations in the Imperium. He is familiar with many other Astartes Chapters and has a begrudging admiration for many Xenos species, both traits acquired from his Deathwatch service. He has difficultly connecting with his battle brothers, and occasionally wonders if it would be better for him to return to the Deathwatch as a Black Shield. He is rather suspicious about the Dark Angels' occasional radical redeployments, but unless he finds out why, he has no reason to object. [B]Equipment:[/b]  Mk.
