Constantine Novem- Captain of the 3rd company

A Grand swordsman and the old company champion of the 3rd company, Constantine Novem learned many of his deadly skills under the teaching of his former captain, Hervald Strom. He helped command the Iron knight vindicators durning one of the campaigns against the Greenskins, Destroying a Stompa with combined fire from his tanks.
When his teacher has been raised to Lord captain of the 1st company, The company champion was put up as a candidate for the new captain. After all the reasons for and against his ascension to being the new captain The Chapter-master wasnt sure if Novem was ready for command. He gave him a condition; Win the 815th Feast of Blades, and he would be given command of the 3rd company.
Constantine rose through the challenges of the Cage, besting each of his foes with the same ease his teacher had 200 years ago. it looked as if Novem would have been able to win in the final round against his Imperial fist opponent, but the floor of the Cage changed under him, making him fall into a spiked pit. Only by chance and the Emperor’s will did the spikes didnt kill him, but they put enough of the Feast’s nuerotoxins to knock Dorn himself unconscious. Even as the Knight was poisoned, he still would never quit. to his opponent’s, and everyone else’s amazement, Novem crawled out of the pit, sword in hand and foaming from the mouth. But it wasn't enough, as his Imperial Fist opponent was declared the winner mere seconds before.
Devastated, Novem thought his chance to lead the 3rd was all but dust until he was visited by the chapter master himself to tell him of the decision. For his valor, skill and determination, Novem was named Captain of the Iron Knight’s third company.
Constantine uses a long handled powersword that can be used in either a two-handed or one-handed grip. He also uses a specially modified plasma pistol that is able to fire in either full auto or burst, Though Novem usually uses the traditional semi-automatic mode as it doesn't melt his armor too much.

Isaiah Atellus of the 5th company has been known to harbor a deep hatred of the Ork Warboss Rotbag Zodgrim for hundreds of years. Whenever the captain and the beast met in battle, It was always ended by some random event that allowed the ork to get away, leaving Isaiah to stew in his anger at the monster. The events almost seem ludicrous, like a freak sandstorm that obstructed the last shot to kill Rotbag, or a dam bursting to flood the battlefield, makeing it impossible to lay chase. the latest one was his least favorite. Who knew those boxes could contain millions of Ultramarine action figures?
Soon after his last encounter with Rotbag, Isaiah Atellus was called to fight against another arm of Zodgrim’s Waaaagh! to rescue the civilians a heavily populated planet. the fighting soon became a meatgrinder for the knights as the dense masses of civilians hamstrung their use of heavy weapons and tanks, their honor preventing them from wasting valuable lives. The Greenskins became entrenched in the abandoned buildings and have spires where even their heaviest flamestorm cannon could not get them out. Evacuation of innocents seemed hopeless until a detachment of Salamanders lead by Vulkan He’stan came to their aid. finally able to get the citizens to safety, the purging began in ernest.
During the many months, Atellus watched in awe as the sons of Nocturne destroyed heavy tanks his own melta guns could not touch. He beheld their mighty flamers as they burned out the entrenched Orks his own artillery couldn't kill.
Inspired by such mastery of fire, the young Captain, with the permission of the Forgefather, Adapted his flamers and melta-guns to be as near to the salamander’s weapons as they could be. The Iron Knight’s techpriests worked for weeks to rebore the
flow regulators so the streams of flames could reach farther. They mixed and modified the promethium to burn hotter to the point it could melt metal. With help of the Salamanders the Knight’s meltaguns where refocused to hit harder for less energy. Finally, the Iron knights had the tools to liberate the planet.
The final Battle had some of the fiercest fighting in the campaign, each force putting out it’s best fighters. In the final moments of the battle, the Forgefather and his terminator veterans became cornered by Zodgrim and his Meganobs. As much of a legendary fighter as he was, the relic-bearer fell before the Warboss, about to be smitten by it’s powerklaw. As the Klaw came down on Vulkan to strike the final blow, Atellus came to his aid, holding up his storm shield in front of the downed Salamander. Although the force of the blow shattered the shield, The two marines where able to send the warboss running, although an extremely well timed building collapse was able to send him running again.
Thankful of the Iron knight’s help, the Forgefather gifted him with the Drakeshield, A neigh unbreakable shield forged with the scales of a Firedrake and melded with a heavy flamer, a relic straight from the armory of the Salamanders.
With his newfound tactics and wargear, Atellus soon became a hellish force to be reckoned with. He still is on a long crusade to end the warboss Rotbag, determined to never let him escape again.
