Skills/Abilities:Surveyor: Thoughtout Lochs time as an Astartes he has an innate ability to take in his enemy, environment and situation, plan accordingly even guess his opponents next move. This allows for counters, crucial reinforcements where needed to be successful. If the battle hasnt started it adds to his tactics of how he wants the enemy to react to his own deployment.
Deep Strike: Lochs own favoured choice is the drop pod to enter the frey. Look how the battle is unfolding and decide his best placement to bolster to troops morale and will to fight.
Close Combat: As a battle brother Loch enjoyed looking into the eyes of his enemy before purging them off the face of the planet for the emperor. He is swift and agile with his attacks, larger weapons was never his forte. He is adept with the use of multiple weapons but his preferred loadout is Power Axe and Storm Shield.
Personal History: Loch grew up on the hive world Kiavhar, well grew up is to put it lightly he survived his time there. He wasn’t brought up in any fancy houses of the hive, never saw the riches, he was a street rat. With all street rats you live or die, Loch was very good at living and causing trouble whilst he did. Offering his services to various gangs he was astute at sneaking and thievery. One job arose which lead him to a near assassination of an Adeptus arbite officer however he was caught before he could sink his blade. He was summoned to high court to be judged, seeing the natural talents of the boy the judge sent him to the Raven Guard stating "Death is your sentence, whether it by gene-seed, training or in battle. Justice will be served"
Loch couldn't believe his fortune no torture or kill squad, his naivety was soon realised being transferred to the Raven Guard. Many of the men he saw on that transport he never saw again, it is known that the gene-seed and genetic modification is a harsh one which few surpass, Loch was fortunate again. With this fortune he did not turn his back on it and applied himself to his new life. His drive was never to give the satisfaction of his death to the judge for as long as possible. With Lochs age he probably surpassed him anyway. During Lochs time in the Raven Guard he was noted for his quick thinking, close quarters fighting and leadership.
Loch saw action during the Battle of Parocheus against the vicious Dark Eldar. At that time he was a tactical squad sergeant. One of many that was tasked to enter the tunnels towards the xenos base, his men clouded by uncertainty as well as Loch himself. These tunnels didnt seem right, like an illusion to mask the bigger picture, something was lurking. Loch threw up his hand to halt his men as they did Loch went to touch the sidewall of the tunnel and it was almost as if a dark mist surrounded it. Being in the mountain and with something larger afoot the comms were out of action, they decided to proceed further until a large quake surrounded them. Loch ordered a tactical retreat with fear of the earthquake covering the opening, other squads had the same idea, some were not so lucky.
That moment the Raven Guard knew there enemy, dark eldar. Ships in the sky and abominations pouring out of the mines. "Form up! May the hand of the emporer be on your shoulder on this day for you will not falter, we never falter!" Lochs willing words heard by his squad and brother around him, as resounding cheer before bolter fire lay down at the coming onslaught. Luck had been on Lochs side once again, even though the battle was over it was not won. Many brothers dragged away but it was not time to counter they were to few. At the return Loch commanded multiple squads during the entry of the mountain as he had been there, taking the fight into the heart of the mountain. Their brothers recovered, it still left a bitterness in Lochs mouth unable to wreak havoc upon whoever commanded this master plan. Loch from then on worked his way up the ranks until this day when he bid farewell to the Raven Guard.
Now has come the time for Loch to start anew, he was approached to join this new chapter with his knowledge and skills. Knowing of the Chapter Master or Lord Commander as he put it he answered the call willingly, adorning a new sigil and colours. He took a knee knowing he could help mould this new chapter and make it renowned amongst all others.
