Neophyte Jorden

The Scythes of the Emperor came across Jorden on sentinel station 426 in the Devlan system. The station was infested by genestealers and was awash with gore and the signs of desperate fighting. The Scythes successfully cleansed the station and during the operation they found the young Jorden hiding in an air duct, badly injured, suffering malnutrition, clutching an empty lasgun in one hand and holding a severed carapace plate in the other.

The Scythes were impressed by his mental fortitude and tenacity, and after passing further tests he was implanted with one of the precious few of the Scythes geneseed. Since then Jorden has continued to develop his skills and abilities and has a keen insight into the abilities of the genestealer, though the scars of his ordeal will forever be with him.
