Kill Team: Acastus

Brother Renald was recommended to the Deathwatch by High Marschal Helbrech personally. During the Scouring of Chattilon II he personally executed the Planetary Governor for opening communications with an approaching Tau Water-caste delegation even before they had made their intentions clear (he still carrys the pistol’Holy Sanction’ that he killed the governor as a warning to all that the simplest tool of the Emperors wrath can bring down the mighty)..

The opportunity to make use of the Deathwatch’s special issue ammo as well as Combi weapons has only increased his Xenophobic fervour to serve the Emperor and purge all alien life from His galaxy… !

Although happy to gently chide his Vanguard comrade Gadiel over his ‘wolflike’ abilities, Olaf often appears grim and determined. Whilst his Fenrisian Battle-Brother Gunnar takes an almost ferocious delight in purging the galaxy of the many Xenos threats facing it, Olaf looks upon his service in the Deathwatch as simply a more efficient form of achieving the same goal. In battle he favours the Power Axe, and whilst he does carry a Bolt Pistol as a standard side arm he is often seen in battle swinging his great axe with both hands, the wide ‘figure 8’arcs bringing death to the foes of humanity..

A Blood Angel who whilst certainly ‘zealous’ in his pursuit of the enemy has been noted for his keen eye and huntsman-like instincts. His comrade Olaf often jokes that Gadiel has a nose ‘more worthy of the Vlka Fenryka than a son of Baal’.

Having served with Engir Krakendoom’s Great Company, Gunnar steadfastly refuses to give up his trusty Heavy Bolter (‘Hel’s Embrace’) even though he has been offered the Infernus type by the Watch.

‘Countless beasts we have slain together for the All-Father…why would I insult her spirit with a replacement??’

Simplicity is his watchword along with a careful adherence to the teachings of his Primarch Guilliman. He leads his team but speaks little of his time with his Chapter or what brought him to the Deathwatch..
