Armadilus is a very well liked Talon, he belongs to an extremely privileged but decorated bloodline which has set him up for the majority of his life. Son of Captain Armadilus, an extremely venerable Master of ordnance and Senior Artillery gunnery instructor at the War Academy of Blaxxhir. Armadilus II is an addict for front line combat, as someone who was given everything as a pupil, he is interested in nothing but glory earned on the battlefield through blood and grit. Instead of following his families' footsteps down the road of Artillery, Armadilus pursued a dangerous alternative, taking command of Shock infantry units deploying into the hornets nest of battle; a decision frowned upon by his father and his bloodline.

When not on the battlefield, Armadilus II spends his time studying the art of discipline aspiring to earn an imperial Disciplinary Master Medallion and become a Chief Disciplinary master of a Command Fortress. Using his detachment as a testing ground, Armadilus is constantly creating new orthodox tactics to improve his effectiveness. The 63rd never rests, constantly training in all forms from drill to combat.

## Pre-commissoned life

Armadilus II was a privileged pupil, spending most his childhood in the care of very well decorated figures; who had invested much into educating Armadilus II before even entering an academy. Armadilus II was accepted into the War academy of Blaxxhir, the finest academy on Grand Talos.

By the end of his graduation, Armadilus II was awarded the Honorable Cadets Cross Medallion symbolic of his position as number one ranked cadet of his cohort. This had earned him a definite position in the 3rd Solar army, the finest army of the War machine, The Lord's army.

Armadilus II was sent straight to Command Fortress Maze, the finest of the 3rd Solar Army. This was the work of his Father and relatives who shared a great friendship with the famous Captain Parthox *(Fortress Commander of Maze)* which came to the disliking of Armadilus II who had been trying to earn his way through his own hard work.
