The ''Drakban'' is one of the original twelve ships purchased by the founder of the Machariel trade dynasty. Already an old ship when purchased, she has served for nearly a thousand years, and is the oldest ship currently in service with the Dynasty. ''Drakban'' is an ''Apoidea''-class commerce raider, a small, lightweight merchantman based on a design for an Imperial Destroyer that is at least 3,500 years old. Initially quite a quick and lively sailor, she has suffered many indignities in her millennia of service which have left her somewhat diminished in speed and power.

In a ship as old as ''Drakban'', personality quirks are to be expected. Her auger arrays are always peering into the void, searching endlessly for prizes to chase or heretics to punish. More than once her macrocannon batteries have fired of their own accord, sometimes at seemingly empty space where a corsair was hiding, or at a foe using a ruse deguerre. She's even been known to fire on a friendly ship out of pure spite. Despite her aged shabbiness and ill temper, she is dearly loved by all crewmen who serve aboard her. Even in death crewmen are loathe to leave her, and many an ancient voidman's spirit still roam her corridors.

'''Note:''' ''Drakban'' has been laid up in drydock around the Machariel's homeworld for the past 150 years. Held in active reserve, she has gone through a thorough overhaul and currently has a skeleton crew to tend to her daily needs. Her future remains unclear.

Opiter Castus

2010-02-10T03:13:32Z

Riffalike: /* Imperial Service */

== Origin Path ==

Death World → Stubjack → Tainted (mutant) → Press Ganged → Renown → '''Explorator'''

== Early Life ==

The boy who would become Opiter Castus was born ominously healthy on the poisoned and lethal world of his tribe. He crested the stature of the hardiest warriors by the time he was seven, and by fourteen he was the towering right hand of his chieftain. In council fires, he heard disjoint tales of the millenia past glories of a world before the poisons spilled out of black towers and a living hate erupted out of the ground itself. Alone, he scoured black tunnels of broken, overgrown cities looking for any answers that might save a few more from their terrible daily extinction.

== Imperial Service ==

The Auxilia Myrmidon landed on what had been written of as a long fallen forge world. Opiter was offered to the Cult by his chieftain as a scout to lead them through their own cities; and he spent over a decade among the techpriests, their servitors, their ruins, and precious few recovered relics. He was saved from a planned doom of being hollowed and rebuilt as a premier combat servitor by Rune Priest Mettius Uller Castus, who took Opiter offworld when their fleet departed. He was taught the priests' histories and faith even as he served in a unit of jeering Guardsmen attached to the Mechanus forces. (''"Aren't you a little short for an Ogryn?"'') To keep him and his nature away from the increasingly prying eyes of commissars, he was sent to Mars to receive his implants and formal induction into the Machine Cult, as well as the name he now carries. Before being shuttled off to the Koronus Expanse, Opiter Castus received bitter word of Mettius's demise and instructions that he inherit a particular implant of his mentor.

== Current Career ==

Beneath hulking rust red robes of the Machine Cult, Opiter Castus is assigned to accompany and faithfully serve endeavors of House Machariel. Any reasons behind this assignment are less important to him than the archeotech waiting to be found and the surname he strives to honor.
