Chaplain Tol Amar is the quintessential Word Bearer. Charismatic, skilled, and cunning. Brave in battle, skilled as a leader. Ambitious, but loyal to his master. Contemplative and visionary at the same time. Tol Amar may be among the most ambitious of Castor's acolytes, but he's also one of the few that show real promise. If Castor wanted someone (which he don't) to forge a Host of their own - or succeed him - Tol Amar might be such a one.

Tol Amar hails from Sicarus, but he lacks the pure Colchisian blood that is so popular among the upper echelons. Instead he's an orphan of dubious parentage, a survivor that clung to life and climbed up the temple stairs, one painful step at the time.

Sis Tak is perhaps the most venerable Word Bearer dreadnought there is. At the very least he's one of the oldest. He started life as a Terran, got drafted for the Great Crusade, and was a veteran long before Lorgar was found. Mortally wounded in battle, he was among the first Astartes to be entombed within a Dreadnought. When the 10th Chapter (now Host) was formed he was added to the roster to bring experience, wisdom - and firepower to the fledgeling Chapter. Sis Tak spends most of his days slumbering and meditating. He's fairly sane and a source of much wisdom. He also has the ear of many of the older veterans.

Imran Dhral is a native of Sicarus, a man from one of the proud Colchisian pureblood families. He served as Captain of the 3rd Company under Obel Gar. He emerged as the best leader and strategos during the post-Samson war games. If he can be said to have any weaknesses it is a lack of personal battle prowess (relatively speaking - he a match for any veteran or sergeant in the Host, just not up there with the best of the best). He's actually above average when it comes to faith and zeal, but he never lets it get in the way of his duties as Coryphaeus, which tends to confuse some of the less illuminated brethren. It is perhaps also hard for him to shine in the preacher department when he's so close to Castor.

Chaplain Salicar or the flayer as he is know in the 10th Host, he came to the host on the shrineship "Broken Angel" where he served as chaplain  and he keept that job in the 10th. Hiram has truly blomed in the service of the 10th, where he has grown in power and mastery of the word, and he has recived gifts form the gods to match.

Hiram is the chaplain for the 20th coy where he is a fine balance to the captains "new" and "inovative" ways of doing things.

The Flayer is old school and is the arch type of how the empire of man view a WB chaplain. He dilivers his litanis and ceremons with cold hatred, the venom drips(litiraly as he as a mutation in that Astardes gland)when he speaks. His skin is old and streched like ancient pargament. His eys are red and yellow and he has poison dripping fangs in his mouth. On his bald head a number of horn resembeling bone growts has started to apear. He flays is war victims and use the skin as pargamet to wirte pasages of the holy word for his company and to make cloaks for him self and the champions of fait in the 20th.

A little know fact is that Chaplain Salicar also provide the Apostel with hand made human/posthuman skin pargament. Almost all the apostels writings are made on skin that the Flayer has lovingly prepaired.(a fact that he takes emence personal and private pride inn). The remains of the victims are renerd down to, fats and oils, some made into candels other parts given to the 10th  Hosts sorceres as spell/ritual ingridiants, as a old school chaplain he lives by the waste not want not maxim.

Anaximander is formerly of the Adeptus Astartes. Turned renegade and worked as a mercenary and pirate for millennia, before finding true purpose in the Word. He eventually wound up in the 10th Host, where he served for a long time under Obel Gar, without being able to realize his potential. Castor, however, quickly recognized him as one of the deadliest warriors in the 10th - and a fine leader and tactician. 

Captain Tam Caron is Obel Gar's old Coryphaeus. Following the ordeal at Samson IV the 10th Host was reorganized. Tam Caron was responsible for many needless Astartes death, but Castor understood only too well that he had conducted the assault as best he could. The merciful Castor let him live on in a role more suited to his nature; as Captain of the 10th specialist Assault company.

In his new capacity he continues to suffer from high attrition, but Castor takes pains to mitigate losses by making sore Caron's assaults are well supported. This combination has proven effective; the Assault Company has yet to fail to take an objective and losses have been within acceptable limits. Castor also know that, if need be, he can release Tam Caron and his men and be certain of victory - no matter the cost.

Tam Caron owns a potent suit of chaos armour (equivalent of artificer armour, plus something extra) and carries and mighty daemon-sword.

The Obliterator cult that worship under the guiding eye of the daemon Baal-Krieg. Their patron is both an aspect of the ancient daemon Baal and something dark and terrible that awoke on Krieg (they have a shrine to Baal-Krieg abourd the ship). They Obliterators number only 57.

The coven of the Prima Filia(first Daughter) is where Arch Domina Kimery has plased what free resorses she has. She has formed a new coven numbering 1000 daugthers after the battle of Zeghyr ehen weapons and armour became abundant for a time.  The coven is stationed with 500 abourd the Dutiful Daughter as ship protection and body guard for the Arch domina her self. 250 are abord teh Verbum as a honnor guard for the apostle(They form part of the pernmant ship forces) The others are spread in the fleet in 50 Daugthers strong units, the priority goes to ships and captains that have a less than sertan loyalty. They go as a bodyguard from the Apostel(so refusing them is not a option) Where they guard the ship with the brotherhood warriors and the deacons of faith.

Parlen-ur was nominally First Captain of the Sicarus replacements. He was the only officer of that batch that was found acceptable and given company command. Parlen-ur is a true believer among true believers. He could easily have become a Chaplain - in Obel Gar's day he would undoubtedly have done very well.

Ral-Haron was a sergeant from the Sicarus replacements. He had some experience fighting in smaller battles in the Eye of Terror. He counts an intermediate daemon of Khorne as his finest melee kill. He was promoted from sergeant rank by Castor's will. Not because he was actually qualified to be a full captain, but because he showed great promise. At the time it was all that mattered, as the 10th Host didn't have enough experienced commanders. Since then he's proven himself qualified.

Jovus Err has served as a chaplain for the 10th Host for millennia. He's somewhat dour and unimaginative, but there is no questioning his conviction or loyalty to whomever is apostle. It is perhaps these traits that have enabled him to survive for so long - he's never risen to become an Acolyte and has thus never been a threat to any apostle. His character traits (plus his undeniable flair for command and tactics) may also be the reason that of all of Obel Gar's chaplains, he alone remains in command of his company after Castor's reorganization.

Chaplain Sar-Krel of the 3rd Company, came to the host, years ago, before Obel Gar's rise to power. He is a BLack Legionnaire, part of one of the failed foundings Ezekiel the Just made in the Eye of Horus to build up his own legions' strength. The few that did not die outright or turned into deamon possessed spawns, joined the ranks of the Black Legion or left the accursed founding fields altogether. Sar-Krel was amongst the few that lived, and left to seek his own fortune and place in the galaxy. After years of wandering, selling his skills to the highest bidding warlord, he found a true home with the 10th host. He found brotherhood and he found the Word. He took to the Word, and found he had a talent for faith, so to speak. After that he walked the ranks as an apprentice, a supplicant, and now as Chaplain.  A veteran of the 3rd himself, he knows and understands the company. His sermons are inspiring, but the elite marines of the 3rd find his skill and zeal in battle to be their chaplain's best and most inspiring sides.

Diston is one of Castor's own veterans, from before he was Lord of the 10th, that has risen to captaincy. He was promoted on the spot to replace Cpt. Tholkis, who died from a sniper's shot to the head at the Icefang. This red-headed giant looks more like a Space Wolf than his brothers of the Word. Diston has one other trait of note; he's a likeable chap, prone to chatting with the subhumans and being generally nice. As a result he as quite the web of connections around the fleet - and good gear and supplies thend to flow his way.

Juron Gaik was a veteran sergeant under Obel Gar. He was promoted to Captain by Castor's word, on account of his proven skill during the war games. Since that time Juron has showed himself as a skilled boarder and drop specialist, skills that have filtered down through the ranks of his company. He is, however, not very concerned with appearances and his company looks a little rag-tag as a result. When confronted by his chaplain over the matter Juron will point out that they heed the Word and the Will, but that the gods care nothing for clean and neat uniforms.

Apotechary Hipoklides, has always felt some what apart from the others, he has know that the brotherhood of the legions was never enough for him.  He is not from the Black Templars but sendt out from his 11 founding chapter to aid them in the crusade in the far away Calixis sector. his father chapter where happy to be rid of him and he was more than happty to go. But the knowlige of being difrent and that he was pushed away for it was palanted deep within him. During his stay with the BT he got hold of teksts of a heretical nature, both from the famed Fabuis Bille and a local nedical heritic called Doctore. He then got the knowlige that there was a lot more out there than he had known so far. When he got the chance after Sigismunds victory, as the last surviving officer he did not blink, he tok the brought the other over. 

Hipoklides has found a home quikly with the 10th, Doctore told him that in the begining he would handle the gen-seed of the host him self abourd the Verbum. Hipoklides gets the facilitys on the Divine Majestic, where he in adition to keep the ships biological in good healt, he is given the task of training the coven of the Angelic touch in the medical arts. Doctore gave him this tankless jobb so that he could keep him under observation, and see his loyalty. Hipoklides could not be happyer , he now has a modern, clean medical facilitys abourd a BB, eagre students, and he gets to pick his own starping medical orderlys from the brotherhood warriors. Sitting in his quarters in the evenings drinking a cup of hot tea, and reading his copy of F.Bilies "On the organs of the posthuman"- he counts his blessings and thinks that life amoung the lost and the damed is good indeed.
