[u][b][color=MediumBlue]P[/color]ersonality:[/b][/u] Holds grudges. Pugilistic. Tactician. [u][b][color=MediumBlue]B[/color]ackground:[/b][/u] WIP I can remember my sister. She is 8 years old. She is quite a handful but mother and father manage. Still, they will teach her as much as they can, as they did with me. I remember the bush where i would explore the ruins until the sun set. I did much walking and climbing and swimming. I remember hitting the bully in the face, even though his father was a pirate captain. I remember the time i almost lost my leg to infection and we had to see a healer. So many options, so many paths that could have ended with me somewhere else, so many hurdles to overcome, it happens again and again and still, each time its just as difficult as anew. I have learned to accept that. [u][b][color=MediumBlue]B[/color]eliefs:[/b][/u] Honour thy wargear (Primary), Knowledge is power (Secondary), No respite for the enemy (Tertiary).

[color=Green]+[/color] Talented: (Inquiry), Marcion has learnt from his mother and father how to Inquire and learn from asking questions, he can also quickly determine if something is a lie or not. [color=Green]+[/color] Talented: (Dodge), Marcion sees dodging the enemies blows as a skill paramount to his success on the battlefield and practices endlessly to avoid a variety of weapons, at first it was hard and tiring but as his implants grew he can now do so without getting tired, but he has to keep constant practice or his skills dull. [u][b][color=MediumBlue]W[/color]eaknesses:[/b][/u] [color=Red]-[/color] Curious, it is a fact of life that those who are adept at Inquiring are also curious. [color=Red]-[/color] Circumspect, sometimes too given towards tactical planning as to cause delay through indecision.

Marcion knows he must get used to using these if he is ever to succeed in the chapter. He can really put it through its paces though he prefers not to add mods to it as this throws the weight off and slows the speed to swing it round to engage enemies. He knows its internals and can make maintenance rituals with near perfect precision. Marcion believes this to be a holy weapon of the Emperor and as such should be decorated with kill markings before his service is through, as such he has attached a symbol of the chapter to it and a gold Aquila pendant both tied on with tight steel chain. It has a leather sling. [u][b][color=MediumBlue]S[/color]econdary Weapon(s):[/b][/u] [url=https://s33.postimg.cc/j5tnlcs8f/bowie_knife_sword.jpg]Scout-Sword[/url] A large single bladed scout sword with hand guard. Its heavier dull side adds momentum when swung. It is equipped as standard with a mono edge blade. I have a mono-sharpener in my pack. It is mostly useful for cutting through the jungle foliage and anything else to cross me. It is kept in a leather sheath on my back. [url=http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/3/37/Eternalcrusade-smknife.jpg]Bronze boot-knife 12"[/url] Bronze Imperial Knife (chapter trapping). This weapon has a plasteel core but is coated in the traditional bronze of the home planet which protects it from rust. Looking at this knife always reminds me of home and i feel my resolve strengthen with the will of the people that depend on me. This weapon is kept in a sheath tied to my boot.
