It sounded a bit bitter and angry for a "lulz Mary Sue" character in my opinion.

My contribution from an old design a 30k primarch thread: Timothy the Git.
Despite what his mother claims, Timothy is not actually a primarch. In fact, he hasn't even had basic military training. This is just weedy boy that grabbed a bad gun and an almost broken sword who went out to fight in the Horus Heresy. He leads both loyalists and traitors to breathtakingly pointless defeats because he could not figure out who is on whose side or what they are fighting over. His failures at leadership are only matched by his failures at being a decent human being. Any army that allows themselves to be led by this scrawny waste of flesh should be ashamed.

Wargear: The Sword of the Ancients, The Ancestral Laser Pistol, His own petard
Special Rules: Inflated Ego, The Real Deal, Sire of the Gits, Scrawny Waste of Flesh

Wargear:
The Sword of the Ancients: A really old sword. Its casting process left it riddled with imperfections, meaning it can shatter at any time. Being ancient and neglected for has not done it any wonders either, leaving the blade rusty and blunt.
Range S AP Type
- -1 - Melee, Fragile
Fragile: Any roll to hit with this weapon of a 1 results in the weapon being destroyed and made unusable for the rest of the battle.

The Ancestral Laser Pistol: Just a really old Laspistol. Its batteries have started to decay and it may explode at any moment. It requires the shooters full attention to produce anything like a coherent beam.
Range S AP Type
12" 3 - Assault 1, Gets Hot

His own petard: At any time the controlling player may remove this model. This model is counted as a casualty for purposes of counting victory conditions.

Special Rules:
Inflated Ego: This model must be taken selected as your warlord. This model cannot take any warlord traits.

The Real Deal: This model may not be selected as part of the same army as any model with the "Primarch" special rule. If there is a model with the Primarch special rule on the table, immediately remove this model as a casualty as he runs away to cower another day.

Sire of Gits: All models in the same detachment as this model lower their leadership by 3 points and lose the Legiones Astares special rule. The detachment that this model is selected as may not take any Rite of War.

Scrawny Waste of Flesh: Any army led by this commander should feel ashamed. Your opponent is allowed one free punch for insulting your soldiers. Also, you have to provide all food and beverages for this gaming session as an apology for wasting everyone's time.

That's hilarious.

Brilliant. I remember that thread and the "primarch"
