Umm... Sly Marbo? No challenge whatsoever? Possibly more badass (dare I say it!) is Ollanius Pius, however due to not having his name as "Rambo" spelt backwards, takes second place for me.

Honourable mention to Darnath Lysander and I thoroughly encourage you all (if you haven't already) to read this page:

That was a great read lol.

Arjac Rockfist

This guy is bad ass. Sadly there isn't that much fluff about him, but I like his one page blurb in the SW codex. I really like how he knows his place, he knows his job, and he does it all exceptionally well.

On the table top, he is beastly. Makes his unit of Wolfguard stubborn and that single unit can be kitted out to do pretty much anything you need it to.

+1 arjac wins hands down he looks epic the little fluff on him is epic he could easily wipe out any off gw or fw model in 1 turn

I think Sigismund would have something to say about that little 1 turn claim.
Arjac does have epic fluff though.

ikr. I should also add Arjac to the list of Honourable mentions - throwable thunder hammer? Yes please

A Crimson Fist player not having a bias for the only special character that wields two HUGE powerfists? Come on .

Fluff wise, I don't think there is any one character. Too many have insane feats of strength that are awesome for them. From being a mortal man killing an ork warboss, to being a super dude strutting through the warp.

Personally my favorite is Bjorn the Fell handed. Fought alongside Leman Russ, was a huge influence for space wolves being what they are today. Super badass when he was flesh, super badass when he is a dreadnought.
Biggest feat? He beat up Magnus the Red.

If I was to build an army around a single character, it would be Be'Lakor. He is (IMO) the best toolbox in the game, as well as being one of the best all around face pucnhers in the game.

Sevatar - "We were murderers first, last, and always!"

Alessio Cortez - "I haven't lost my arm, brother! It's right over there! I'm still in this! I'm fine!"

Da Red Gobbo - "Viva la Revolushun!!!"

Ghazghkull - "I'm da prophet of da WAAAGH! an' whole worlds burn in my boot prints."

Doomrider - "*snorts warp dust off a daemonettes tits*"

Cypher - "I'M GONNA TATTLE ON YOU!!!"

If only Mortarion's Heart was the thing we knew about Kaldor Draigo instead of the ridiculous entry Matt Ward wrote him, I would be throwing Draigo's name up there but alas, it is not so.

Wait, what?

D4Chan wrote:Kaldor Draigo is famous for [...] banishing Daemon Primarch Mortarion back to the warp, somehow carving the name of the previous supreme grand master Geronitan (a fething long name) into the heart of said Daemon Primarch without contracting space daemon AIDS in the process (to put this insanity in perspective, try cursive writing with a Chainsaw)

Or the biggest and bestest of all space marines evar, Calgar

Throwing my hat in either the Memphy or Kantor groups. Memphy suffered the rage and went to war for his final battle. He had a tower collapse on him, and was abandoned as dead. A week later in hostile ork territory with next to no armor left he woke up, slaughtered his way to the imperials, and rejoined the fight. He has also reportedly ripped apart a 'fex barehanded (not an avatar). Plus hes dead 'ard and can solo entire units (of 3+ saves) by himself with ease. His statline looks more like a monstrous creature than anything on a 25mm base should ever have.

As for good 'ol Pedro, dude had his home monastery destroyed, and held the line against an ork invasion with 14 warriors and WON. Hell yeah.

Honorable mention to Seth. Fuckhuge chainsword, crazy chapter thats on the verge of dying out or being excomunicate tratoris and keeps eating their allies, and the guy is so good at fighting he kicks his opponents in the balls/ovaries if they miss him in melee. Plus, i run him and Corbulo and call them team brofist rending chainsword. So much fun to have the two of them cost less than a super character from another codex yet do twice as much damage.

That would be Khorne, Lord of Skulls.

Pretty sure even the other Chaos gods admit Khorne could just thundercleave whole worlds apart, except he's too busy chillin' on his throne.


Of course, neither is a playable character, soooooooo.......

This guy...Orpheus Doofy.

I can't open the file.

I did not even try when Firefox did not propose to use an image viewer. Dubious file is dubious.

It's possible that it's only compatible with an OS I don't have, but the program was not recognized at all.

No love for An'ggrath?

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/An'ggrath_the_Unbound

What does badass mean other than kill everything in the name of a dark God?

Notice how many times the word terrible is used in that article. No one else gets that many terribles. This is not up for debate.

Three times.

Gotz to say, Wazdakka Gutzmek. An angry Ork biker - don't get much more nasty than that. The dude rides the Bike of the Aporkalypz. He's so-o-o bad they
didn't give him his own page in the Ork codex 'cause they didn't want to scare the little kiddies. The guy leveled his own kamp when he was accused of cheating.
Rumor has it he's putting together his own Waaggh just to screw with the galaxy. Reason? He don't got to have no stinkin' reason.

Reason: he's trying to create a planet-to-planet motorbike highway.

Eiserhorn the badass character , more because of his actions than his skill (compared thith other characters )

Yup, only reason Khorne is in power is because all the other gods ganged up on poor old blue because they couldn't stand his constant card tricks and hat rabbits. And now there is only war.

Big Blue will be back though soon as the blue scribes collect his shards.

Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau is pretty high up there on the list of most badass original GW characters. He's an Inquisitor that wears skin tight power armor that looks like jeans and a t-shirt, disdains helmets for fedoras, and thinks trenchcoats are the height of fashion.

St. Celestine. All other answers are heresy.

Honorable mention to John Grammaticus who defeated armies with the super psyker power of being able to speak any language. Oh and that whole resurrection trick.

It was Logan until they turned him into santa. I'm going to build that model with a red nose on one of the wolves and a big bag of presents in the sleigh. Maybe I can green stuff a red hat for Logan to complete the look...

Aside from the no-duh people like The Emperor, primarchs, and marbo etc. Would be Ephrael Stern IMO.

Her feats for a normal sister of battle aside from her physic power are as followed.

Ephrael managed to defeat a fellow sister that was poessed by a demon of slaanesh with her bare hands.

killed a Culexus Assassin by herself with her powers.

Able to access and use the eldar webways.


PRetty impressive for a Sister.

Typhus. Of all the ICs, he is by far my favorite both fluffwise and rule wise.

Mephiston and the Saint both came back from the dead.
