[i]"Your lasgun’s power cell is full; you haven’t fired a shot! Jonah Vir, I find you in dereliction of your duty to the 11th Antari Rifles, to the Bales Stars Crusade and to the God-Emperor. The sentence is summary execution; do you have anything to say in your defence?"[/i]

[b][i]Age[/i]:[/b]
Late-30s, Terran Standard (estimated)

[b][i]Gender[/i]:[/b]
Female

[b][i]Occupation:[/i][/b]
Commissar, 11th Antari Rifles - Imperial Guard, Imperium of Man

[b][i]Skills:[/i][/b]
Knowledge and capability in military command and discipline - in line with norms of the Imperium of Man’s Commissariat and Imperial Guard  -  adequate markswoman and a fierce duelist. Basic survival skills, but nothing extraordinary.

[b][i]Personality:[/i][/b]
Outwardly, Severina is the picture of what a Commissar should be - no-nonsense, harsh yet fair, and an inspiration and intimidation for her fellow soldiery. Beneath that fascade, however, Severina is still a human woman; virtues, flaws and all. In particular, she does feel the weight of her responsibilities weighing on her; particular attention is paid to the names and faces of those that she has lost during the Crusade, or the faces of those she was forced to dispense the Emperor's Justice (ie: summary execution for cowardice) upon. 

In short, if you are someone who is dutiful to your ideals and doesn't run when danger comes knocking, the Commissar will fight by your side. Try and hurt her, fall below her standards, or impose your beliefs on her or others she cares for and you won't even register the bolt round erupting from her sidearm [i]'Penance'[/i]. 

[b][i]Biography:[/i][/b]
A political officer charged with the maintenance and leadership of her assigned regiment, Severina has known nearly nothing outside the cold confines of her Progeniship on Antares and the grinding years she had spent involved in the wars that criss-crossed the Bale Stars area of conflict. One of two daughters to her mother - the latter serving as the last incumbent of the title of Lord-Militant in command of this Crusade - Severina stifles her fears of failure and letting herself and her regiment down behind an iron facade of discipline and duty. 

As the conflict against a Ruinous Powers cult known as 'The Sighted' - which the reclamation is charged with destroying - has ground on, Severina has allowed herself few attachments with her ward-regiment. Further and further, however, the conflict had began to show signs that not all as is what it seems. Subversion by the enemies of Man - and the vices of mankind's own flaws - were constantly everywhere; even as far as the very top of the Crusade's leadership. 

Whether Commissar Raine and the 11th Antari will survive to see the Crusade's conclusion, however, is yet to be seen ...  

[b][i]Likes:[/i][/b]
Nothing out of the ordinary. Just find any common ground as best one could and all will be well.

[b][i]Dislikes:[/i][/b]
Over-indulgence in vice, laxity, unnecessary fighting and cowardice. The last is usually summarily answered with a bolt round through the offender's skull, if warranted by Raine.

[b][i]Fears:[/i][/b]
Betraying her oaths of loyalty to the Imperium of Man.

[b][i]Weaknesses:[/i][/b]
Has the same likelihood of and vulnerability to falling victim to disease, death and other slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that the universe can hurl at a human being.
