You means besides the enormous mechanical arms?

Ravager Zero

Modified my sign-up post.
Yes, he's meant to be a close combat monster.
No, he's not particularly bright for an astartes warrior.

Modified my post again, this time with minor tweaks to the soft points and background for the Red Talons. I'll put up a personal profile for Samuel at some point too.

Message to all Astartes - be advised that we are about to enter a combat zone; you are advised to make any final preparations now, as once you are scrambled it will be impossible to change your loadouts. ;)

The Administratum also advises that all forms and archives be filed prior to deployment, lest your deeds, or your fate, go improperly recorded and lost in the gears of its mighty workings...

My wargear is prepared. I seek nothing of glory or recognition. Destruction must be rained on those who oppose the Imperium. Praise the Omnissiah

Bookmarking a post to put my character and chapter background into. I'll fill this in when I get a chance, which should be later this afternoon.

+++Chapter history: Blue Vipers+++
The Blue Vipers initially started life as three companies of the Cobalt Cobras chapter. This contingent was pledged as semi-permanent support to the Adeptus Mechanicus as a field testing group, deploying equipment not rapidly manufactured, on a large scale. Circumstances changed somewhat when the Cobalt Cobras homeworld unexpectedly exploded, for reasons the Administratum has never made public. This left the remains barely operational, but the captain in charge at the time managed to organise the rebuild of two companies in the space of ten years, before he himself died delivering a powerful atomic device to the heart of an Orkish Hulk.

It has been roughly five centuries since the calamity that destroyed most of the chapter, and only the two oldest Dreadnaughts - also the chapter's two only Dreadnaughts - still remember the days before it. Over the last few centuries, however, the rebuilt Blue Vipers have maintained their AdMech ties. This mainly manifests itself in a far larger number of equipment variations, which in turn manifests itself in specialist boltgun and ammunition variants. In addition, the chapter has triple the number of Techmarines normally seen, but a distinctly reduced chaplaincy.

Appearance: Blue Viper power armour is, usually, darkish blue, not far off that of the Crimson Fists. There is little fear of misidentification, however, as the shoulder pads feature a blue serpent on a bright green background. The chapter has less regard than usual for its colours, however, prefering instead to use camoflauge schemes with the chapter symbol mounted discretely, though usually on the shoulder pads. Pauldron trim usually indicates squad type; in veteran squads it is common for several colours to be used, signifying each brother's route to this point.

+++Blue Viper Personnel Records: Brother-Codicer Zoltan+++
The Librarius of the Blue Vipers is fairly well manned as Librarii go, though on one notable occasion the relatively open recruitment process appears to have led to one candidate suffering prolonged demon possession that did significant damage to the armoury, killing several marines and severely damaging the dreadnaught Brother Kane. Codicer Zoltan earned a commendation for bravery as a cadet when he managed to beat the offending demon out of its host in combined psychic and melee combat. Since those days, which resulted in a severe tightening on the recruitment conditions, Zoltan has spent the last decade as second in command of 4th Company, sometimes leading detachments into battle.

Zoltan is of average build for an Astartes. His helmet is covered in psyamplification apparatus, which is in turn armoured, effectively removing most distinguishing shapes when viewed from behind. His left arm has expanded armour plates that provide similar defence to a combat shield, whilst his hammer is mounted on his right hip, head down, when not in use.

Whilst an expert in coordinating ground combat, Zoltan has not yet aquired a lot of skill in space-based combat. As the Blue Vipers don't usually see a lot of boarding action, Zoltan and a hanful of Blue Viper veterans have been forwarded to the Deathwatch, with the intention of having them thrown in at the deep end and seeing what they can learn.
So how many crashes have I survived now?

Lord Sotek, is there a reason for your chapter's hatred of the Adeptus Mechanicus, or is it some grudge lost in history? Oh, and in your last post you said I checked the closed door. I actually went for the open one, Jayne/Severus went to the other.

The Man They Call Jayne

Yeah I was wondering about that, i figured that the guy with all the weapons you mentioned was me, but then you said you hoped it was nothing to do with the AdMec, which would surely be obvious? I have a full servo harness and the AdMec Icon on my shoulder. Unless I am missing something?

I assumed it was me since he mentioned the Red talon icon.
