Name:Elyias Tempestas Race:Human Position:Imperial guard Storm Trooper member of the 122nd "Stormbringers" and a low ranked stormtrooper in the 3rd stormtrooper Regiment. Appearance:[hider=Stormtrooper armor] [img]http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/308/f/0/inquisitoral_stormtrooper_2_by_sninefiver-d5jxw3y.jpg[/img] [/hider] Underneath the helmet is a man with sandy blonde hair that is cut to regulation lengths, his face has a few scars but the one that stands out is the long jagged one that goes from his left cheek down to the right side of his chin and towards his throat, his hazel eyes are devoid of any emotion but burn with a fanatical fire one that shows his true and utter devotion to the emperor, he shaves often but still his stubble clings to his face with a stubbornness that does not relent giving him a more rugged look. Allegiance: 122nd Stormbringers Abilities: Elyias has a recessive pariah gene meaning he is what the Imperium call "Blanks" they are people with no presence in the warp and so they aren't effected by psykers people in the general vicinity of a blank also aren't effected by psychic powers, unlike people with a dominant pariah gene "Blanks" aura of otherness isn't as strong so they aren't generally killed off at birth, but it's strong enough for people to feel unnerved around him and see him as somebody who is truly odd but otherwise leave him alone. Elyias was lucky enough to make it this far with the pariah gene and even luckier that an inquisitor saw no use in him. For psykers being in the same general vicinity of Elyias is more uncomfortable than non-psykers. Bio:Elyias' homeworld was a polluted hiveworld called Thebes, it was so polluted that it often rained acid and the surface of what little water was left on the planet was covered in a layer of toxic sludge, during the Horus Hersey the imperial army group "The Breakers" turned traitor (due to their attachment to a space marine chapter that went traitor) and joined with the forces of chaos. For a majority of the war the Breakers controlled the planet with an iron fist, with only a few regiments actually going out and fighting on the frontlines. Eventually as the war turned in the favor of the Imperium thebes fell under siege and brutal fighting ensued it was during this the first of what would eventually be the "Stormbringers" fough with the imperium at the moment they were a group of resistance fighters who aided imperial forces in retaking the planet. With that done, the resistance fighters who aided the Imperium were the first to join the newly formed Imperial guard they declared themselves "The Stormbringers" They were fanatical to the emperor even without the commissars at their backs. Like the Breakers before them the early days of the Stormbringers prided themselves on their ability to lay siege to fortifications with massive amounts of artillery. (And still to this day there are two or three artillery regiments within the group.) But things changed when their enemy changed, they didn't experience much trouble from heretics or xenos with the exception of the Dark Eldar, who often raided Thebes and her moons for slaves and prisoners. The Stormbringers were ill-prepared for a fast attacking enemy that could shrink into the shadows before they could even prepare their guns, so under the command of Commander Galanos they changed their tactics instead relying heavily upon fast attack vehicles like sentinels and dropping in with Valkyries, this single handily brought the dark Eldar under heel and kicked them out of the system. Shortly after their victories after the Dark Eldar the Stormbringers achieved the notice of a group of Adeptas Sororitas, named "The soldiers of the Golden throne." This group of sisters invoked their rights over the Stormbringers and brought them into battle against the enemies of the Imperium once again. It was during this time that the future stormtrooper named Elyias was born. The pariah gene was passed onto him by his mother and was made recessive so he was born with that aura of "Otherness" like his mother but it wasn't as strong as someone with a dominant gene. So the doctors just shrugged off that fact and gave the child back to his mother. As Elyias grew up he knew he was different from the others who didn't want to play with the. "Weird kid." But he was unaware of his pariah gene, he just thought it was something else. In his teenage years Elyias grew up watching the parades of Stormbringers before they set off into battle. He saw them as heroes and saw the fact that no matter what they weren't ignored or bullied. So when he grew older he joined them, his aura was so wrong to the recruiter that he assigned Elyias to general infantry and shipped him off. Elyias' first battle scarred him, it was a battle against a ork Waagh that was attacking a nearby system. The battle was so intense that it lasted months, and by the end of it the blood of Elyias' comrades had soaked into his boots and the trench system he fought in had a permanent puddle of blood about 2 inches deep. But eventually the battle ended in an imperial victory and Elyias lived to die another day. Elyias' second engagement was more brutal than the first. It was here where he tasted his first action against the heretical forces of chaos, it was here where the breakers, the Stormbringers predecessors, fought those who took their place. And nothing prepared them for the macabre group of traitors wearing skulls and other things on their armor and vehicles. But still with almost an insane amount of fervor the group fought and eventually proved themselves better, Elyias even went above and beyond getting on a heavy bolter and mowing down at least 40 traitors before running out of ammo. This gained him recognition and even though they didn't want to they brought Elyias into the ranks of The Stormtroopers. Where he fights engagement after engagement in the name of the emperor and The Stormbringers.
