Recently the capital city of the planet Veja III has been seized by a group of heretics, heavily armed and highly drilled after large groups of local PDF were subverted.
The Inquisition has ordered that the Imperial Guard to eliminate or capture various leaders of the uprising.
The local Lord-General one Eli Rathbone has decided to use a unit of penal soldiers specially trained and indoctrinated for tasks such as these.
The plan is to infiltrate the city in various methods.
The area has large mines nearby it is theorised that the city could be infiltrated via tunnels or by soldiers posing as slave labourers.
To drop in during a bombing raid.
we'll discuss the entry method/methods and teams once a few players are ready

Hey! I've wanted to join in on one of these for a very, very long time, but I've never had the time or a reliable computer to do it on till now, haha. So, if you'll have me, I'd like to join up!
Ah, and I hope this isn't too bad.
-Macala
Name: Vladimir "Wraith" Scion Age: 36 Terran Years Rank: Sergeant-Major Unit: Prior to transfer, Vladimir was the special weapons trooper of Team Omega, a special forces unit in the Foravarian 1st Regiment. Crime: None. Transfered to provide invaluable experience to special operations units within the penal legions. Specialisation: Special Weapons, Infiltration Equipment: Plasma Gun, Navy-Issue Autopistol w/silencer, Foravar-Pattern Power Sword, 2 Krak Grenades, carapace armor, comm-link, Visored combat helmet Notes: Is loyal to the Emperor, and His will. He favors Plasma weaponry, which puzzels many of his superiors. Vladimir also has a mechanical arm from his elbow down, the result of a Plasma Gun failure.
While serving in Team Omega of the Foravarian 1st, Vladimir was a part of the assault force that destroyed the daemonic infestation on the planet of Dalmoth, operating under command of Inquisitor Macala. Near the end of the infestation, Vladimir's squad assisted Inquisitorial Storm Troopers in destroying a large group of Tzeetch Daemons. His entire squad was killed, leaving him the only survivor.
Following this action, Vladimir was transfered to a penal legion according to the direct orders of Inquisitor Macala. Unsure of the reasoning behind this, Vladimir was forced to accept his fate, albiet with great reluctance. He soon found himself in the 145th, under the command of one Captain Lucan. Having never been told of the reason for his transfer, Vladimir reserves a vast amount of animosity for the Inquisition, which he feels has utterly screwed him over.

Awsome I'm in. Sorry if mine is too long, but i couldn't really get across his personality if i left anything out. (This is actually a character i have been creating, hopefully for Dark Heresy as soon as i can convince my gaming buddies to play)
SaN
Name: Brand Grimmhammer Rank: Veteran Sargent Unit: Previously a Veteran Sargent of the 136th Rodinian Jungle Drop Troop Specialisation: Close Combat, Close Range Firefights, Beserker Rage Equipment: Olive Drab Flak Vest and Cargo pants, Autogun, Laspistol, Rodinian Jungle Duelists Officer Machete(PowerSword), 4 Throwing Knives, 2 Combat Knives, 1 Augmetic wrist hidden poniard
Brand served with the Rodinian PDF for 5 years before Waaagh! Headgrabba descended upon the nearby Death World of Vienmang (similar to Catachan in terms of flora and fauna). He was transferred to the 13th Rodinian Jungle Duelists Battalion, as part of a platoon of reinforcements. During the following years of battle the 13th Battalion was taken down to total strength equal to 2 companies. The remaining forces were combined with the 6th Rodinian Drop Battalion to create the 136th Jungle Drop Troop, were Brand became the Sargent of a Veteran Squad, who specialised in leading the assault by dropping in behind lines and causing mayhem with close range firefights and close combat.
Waaagh! Headgrabba lasted 5 years, before grinding to a halt on Vienmang after the Inquisition discovered the Ork invasion had been orchestrated by a Rogue Psyker and notorious Heretic Franz Bornlow. The Inquisition declared Exterminatus on the planet but Franz escaped and to this day has been causing cult uprisings on Rodina itself and the surrounding space.
During his last mission, as Sargent of a Veteran squad sent in to assasinate the commander of a PDF company that had been turned by Franz, the Valkyrie transporting Brand and his squad was ordered along a certain flight path by a Lt. Orwel of the 136th Jungle Drop Troop. The Valkyrie diverted into the flight path only to be shot out of the sky by a Hydra emplacement manned by members of the Heretical PDF. Brand was the sole survivor. Lt. Orwell made the order so that his Valkyrie could fly past as the Hydra reloaded. Brand made his way back to the lines on foot and overcome with rage and sorrow attacked Lt. Orwell. In the ensuing brawl Brand killed no less than 14 men of Lt. Orwells platoon,including the Lt. himself. However Lt. Orwell managed to cut Brand's left hand off before Brand beat him to death with the head of his personal bodyguard. Brands keeps the officers Machete as a reminder and trophy.
Brand was dishonourably discharged and sentenced to death, however the Inquisition intervened and he was transferred to the 145th Penal Legion. Not even Brand knows why, although he now fights for his own cause and for the memory of his dead (although he would use the term murdered) squad members. He is prone to beserker rages and is nigh unstoppable in this state.

Name: Jaythord Threepwood Age: 35 Rank: Trooper Unit: Formerly of A company, Monian 37th. Crime: Carried out a severe attack on an agent of the commissariat. Since this happens so often in Monian units, he was chosen for penal service rather than execution. Specialisation: Sniper, scout Equipment: Silenced sniper issue custom autorifle, laspistol, Wraithbane (note: unique warblade found only in Monian units, commanders are advised to avoid touching it due to it's personal value in monian culture), camo cloak, lightweight flak vest, 5 frag grenades, mechanical eye implant, vox bead. Insertion: Via sewers and will then proceed to use the city ruins within a mile of air-op landing point. Notes: Trooper Threepwood is...quiet, to say the least. By many standards you could call him a combat veteran having suffered an eye wound in the line of service. Prior to his penal assignment he was from one of the best stealther units in the eastern fringe, no strangers to wetwork. Monia is a world with brutal conditions making this trooper like most of his kind excellent survivalists. He is an unusually calm and collected person most of the time and hard to anger.
In his former regiment he was part of a particular, special scout group in the 37th called the “Nightblades” as a sniper. Like most monians he has a deep-set hatred of the commissariat and imperial high command but will follow orders from most field officers.
Threepwoods combat experience is quite vast considering his rank, his first actions being in the ruins of Karaskitav during the third sphere expansion where his regiment was baptised in fire against a superior xenos force 13 years ago, to his last action which was on the blizzard world of Haeros in a series of raids intent of destroying key supply depots in possession of Tau forces in the Abyss line of the Eastern Fringe (see file 602.349.536/.c).
He was then transferred to the penal legions after his aforementioned offence during his last planetary transfer where the inquisition intervened.
Officers should be advised, the individual is prone to infrequent and random episodes of psychosis.

Name: Gregori Vang'hain Age: 19 (actual age) (proper Rivian age to standard leaves him at around 36) Rank: Corporal Specialization: Intrusion expert Crime: Mass murder of non-combatants, Use of prohibited narcotics, 16 counts of threatening superiors and 2 counts of theft. Given the choice of death or service, he chose both. Equipment: Loyalist Rivian Penal Execution Suit, a 6" Stalker knife (Equipped with internal silence field), Executioner class 9mm Auto-rifle (13 clips), Custom built 11mm Revolver (36 haywire rounds). Notes: Gregori is a very dangerous man. Like most of the Rivian people, he is exceedingly violent and uncompromising. He is not to be allowed near explosives. He is also addicted to a powerful narcotic known as "Bale Seed" which speeds up the users reaction time to incredible levels.
He has recently broken out of custody and stolen a suit of psuedo-power armour. This armour boosts his strength to incredible levels. He is currently on the run with another fugitive, A female whom he is presumed to have intimate ties with.
He's about 6'3" and has dark red hair. His skin complexion is very light verifying he has spent most of his time underground in the deep sections of Rivian under-cities where a lot of infighting between loyalist forces and renegade forces, where he found his love, Lolita Hiberfang, She and a small team of imperialists were planning to take on a small rebel base. While the assualt went way better than planned Lolita and Gregori became very fond of each other.
Name: Lolita Hiberfang Age: 26 Rank: Ex-Lieutenant Specialization: Sniper, intrusion expert Crime: Grand Larceny Equipment: 13mm Heavy anti-material rifle, Flak vest,2 6" stalker knives, 1 10" Stalker blade, Autopistol Notes: Lolita is a small mousy woman at about 5'7" with a devilish smile. A sniper with keen eye and a obsessive cleptomaniac. She deals with problems with the exact same method as people she doesn't like, killing.
Lolita is not a Rivian unlike her boyfriend and has no problem speaking common. She was given dishonourable discharge for stealing her commanding officer's personal belongings.
She has made significant improvements to her unit's sniping prowess, developing several sniping strategies including the infamous "Sniper's trail" which made her an incredible shot on the move.

Post by Lord General Armstrong on Aug 5, 2010 3:11:55 GMT -5
Name: Karen Bevon Rank: Private unit: Before being attached to the penal, Karen Bevon was a decorate general in charge of an entire battle group. Specialisation: Tactics, Strategies, Special weapons Equipment: hellgun (with some minor improvements, highpower setting, laser sight, 4x scope and a bonnet), carapace armour, small hidden refractor field, unpowered collar.
Karen Bevon was once a decorated general, but mistake after mistake, loss after loss, he became paranoid, he sent his entire battle group into the middle of nid swarm, The guardsmen were all killed in action, it was a massacre thousands dead. The general shot the regimental commanders who disobeyed their orders and then ran for the nearest transport after seeing what he had done.
After returning home he was declared a heretic, a coward, but do to his record and 'friends' in high places he was sentenced to serve in the penal as a private. Though a reasonable person and a strong believer of the imperial creed, he is quite stubborn, though he does fall under pressure. He hides his past and his true position from others and only his current officers know of his true position.
A tinkerer of all sorts he was given a small emp device which deactivated his collar, he has removed the small explosive inside it and is awaiting the perfect time to take it off.
