Hector Rex - History: A powerful psyker, Hector Rex was first selected for Imperial service after being screened for psychic potential by the Schola Psykana of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica. His potency was such that he easily excelled in all his training, outshining his classmates, most of whom were destined for service as Sanctioned Psykers of the Imperial Guard. As Rex grew to adolescence, he was subjected to genetic enhancement by the Imperium's finest chirurgeons and gene-adepts, similar to that worked upon the superhuman bodies of the Adeptus Astartes. His physical body grew to massive proportions until Rex towered eight feet tall, with a heavily muscled frame and superhuman physical condition. Once his genetic enhancement was complete, Hector Rex was handed over to the Inquisition for more advanced training and placed as an Acolyte with Inquisitor Thor Malkin.After long service across the galaxy, Rex rapidly advanced within the Inquisition's ranks to become a valued servant of the inner circle of the Ordo Malleus, privy to highly restricted information about the true nature of daemons and how they were to be combated. Rex rose to become the Proctor-General of the Scarus Conclave which oversaw all Inquisitorial affairs in the Scarus Sector of the Segmentum Obscurus, with many other Inquisitors and Acolytes as his servants. He possessed almost unlimited powers with which to deal with any Chaotic threat in the sector.Imparted with these formidable powers, Lord Rex has led Imperial armies, called upon the Grey Knights on numerous occasions to face terrible threats, and has access to the Imperium's full arsenal of weapons with which to protect Mankind from the threat of daemonic possession and incursion. Lord Rex is a hard-line Puritan in his philosophical beliefs, accepting no compromise when it comes to dealing with those that would (or have) trafficked with daemons. He personally tracked down and captured the Renegade Radical Inquisitor Galasek and Rex's own agents continue to seek the Renegade's misguided acolytes across the length and breadth of the Segmentum Obscurus.One of Lord Rex's most famous campaigns was the closing of a Warp portal on Hellanus III. There Lord Rex commanded a strike force of Grey Knights and fought hand-to-hand with a savage Greater Daemon of Khorne, casting its blasphemous form back into the Warp. In recognition of this deed, he was honoured with the ancient sword Arias, a revered Nemesis Force Weapon forged at the dawn of the Imperium, reputedly blessed by the Emperor's own hand and only removed from stasis to be carried by the greatest heroes of the Ordo Malleus.In the course of his dangerous duties, Inquisitor Lord Hector Rex is assisted by a large retinue of henchmen, having many Acolytes, sages, Servitors, scribes and menial servants to run his everyday affairs, but most of these do not generally follow him into combat. Once upon the field of battle, he is accompanied by Exorcists, Ecclesiarchy Priests who are trained to banish daemons using the power of their faith, and many Acolytes, Familiars, Veteran Imperial Guardsmen, sages and mystics. Alongside his formidable retinue, Rex also has access to such dangerous weapons as the operatives of the Officio Assassinorum and the fearsome Grey Knights, the elite psychic Space Marines who serve as the Chamber Militant of the Ordo Malleus.
