Commissar Masenak
Homeworld: Valhalla
Information:
Assigned to 15th Patrian Renders after his first posting, 7th Urdeshi, was damaged to a degree that required its folding into the 5th Urdeshi. Feels some level of guilt dealing with his former Regiment's destruction, subject was not in the area when a surprise Chaos attack knocked out the command structure.
One of the new commissars, subject generally puts a high value on the life of his men. However, after events dealing with discipline in his former training regiment, subject has not hesitated to use summary execution of soldiers he deems risky to have. A quick learner, subject has a degree of tactical ability somewhat higher than the average commissar. Tends to lead from the front if possible.
Unlike most commissars, subject prefers a las-gun for his primary weapon. Subject procured a modified long-las model with several major changes. Due to non-standardization of the weapon, it's exact characteristics are unknown; however, it does not seem to be capable of the long ranged accuracy of a marksman model. An under-barrel flechette gun is known to be a major part of the weapon. Subject also carries a chainsword and bolter pistol as standard weaponry. Subject visibly carries one combat knife and is known to carry a solid-slug pistol as a holdout. Additionally, carapace armor is almost always worn under subject's storm-coat. Known to horde found weapons, subject may be expected to have other armament. Subject's excessive gear load tends to make him somewhat slower than a normal trooper, and less suited to stealth operations.
Subject does not posses any worrying characteristics for heresy. Prefers Tanna tea as a drink and generally carries some in his kit, as well as several spices. Has been known to use personally procured goods as incentives for his soldiers. Unlike most natives of his planet, subject tolerates heat somewhat well, wears a special version storm-coat that has several liners which he rarely puts in.
