Castus Metallus

Castus Metallus was killed while storming the stronghold and ritual site of the heretical cult, The Blessed Flesh, on Desoleum. He sacrificed all for the God-Emperor to prevent the Demonic invasion of Desoleum Primus.

Role: Hierophant - Sway the Masses - In addition to the normal uses of Fate points, a Hierophant character may spend a Fate point to automatically succeed at a Charm, Command, or Intimidate skill test with a number of degrees of success equal to his Willpower bonus.

Background: Adeptus Ministorum - Faith is All - When spending a Fate point to gain a +10 bonus to any one test, an Adeptus Ministorum character gains a +20 bonus instead.

Homeworld: Aventine (Highborn) - Breeding Counts - Any time a highborn character would reduce his Influence, he reduces it by 1 less (to a minimum reduction of 1).

Aventine - The world of Aventine is said to have been colonized soon after humans arrived at Askellon, and certainly its history is a long one indeed. While it has never been counted amongst the great powers, Aventine has always been prosperous, yet never as influential as it would wish. This friction has led to many rivalries with nearby worlds in the Thule sub-sector. The surface of Aventine is dominated by countless thousands of high-sided, flat-topped island-mesas, between which flows a shallow sea teeming with oceanic life. Atop the island-mesas are numerous settlements, each connected to the next via gracefully arching bridges decorated with statues depicting numerous saints and other worthies. Most of the islands are somewhat self-sufficient and able to feed themselves from the bountiful surrounding sea. The largest island is host to the palace of Lord Sarawak, Aventine’s governor. Having perceived the sector’s decay, and lack of proper responses to threats such as the rising Pandaemonium, he has come to believe that the sector’s rulers on far Juno, are no longer able to properly govern and protect Askellon. Having withdrawn much of his regular contact with Juno, Sarawak has effectively withdrawn his world from the Imperium.
