GRANDMASTER ARAKIS Dark Angels Chapter By ( Captain Arakis ) |
Origin: Arakis grew up on the Feudal world Threpanege. The populace of the world are ordered in a hierarchy like that of ancient Terra. The nobles, staunchly loyal to the Imperial way and their creed of knighthood, defend their subjects. They in turn toil to produced the tithes required by their lords and the Imperium.

He has developed a unique skill at fighting necrontyr from many battles against them, and has yet to be defeated by the ancient xenos.
