Jetek Suberei

Jetek Suberei rides to war in the manner of his gene-sire's sons, a Biker Sergeant of the White Scars who carried the lightning-fast doctrine of his Chapter into the ranks of the Deathwatch. Where the White Scars hunt across the plains of Chogoris and the void alike, striking from nowhere and vanishing before the foe can answer, Suberei brought that same feral speed to the war against the xenos, trading the open steppe for the killing grounds of the Long Watch.

He is a figure of restless motion, seldom still, forever seeking the flank and the unguarded approach. Mounted upon a massive and heavily armoured bike, he bears a humming power sword with which he shears through armour and alien flesh at full gallop, and at his side flies a faithful hawk, a companion in the old tradition of the White Scars' hunt-brotherhoods. Every plate of his black Deathwatch armour is marked with the totems and honours of his homeworld, so that even amid the sombre ranks of the Watch his origins are never in doubt.

Suberei's most storied service came as a member of Kill Team Cassius, the band of heroes gathered by the Ultramarines High Chaplain Ortan Cassius and attached to the watch fortress of Talasa Prime. Assembled from warriors of many Chapters, the kill-team was dispatched to the mining world of Ghosar Quintus, where a creeping xenos taint had already swallowed an Inquisitor and now threatened to deliver the whole planet into the maw of a Genestealer Cult and the hive fleet that shadowed it.

On Ghosar Quintus, Suberei's speed made him the kill-team's eyes and its swiftest blade. He ranged ahead of his brothers through the cramped delver-tunnels and shattered surface-works, running down fleeing cultists, encircling the enemy, and carrying word of the foe's dispositions back to Cassius so that the Watch's blows might fall exactly where they would hurt most. Where the purestrain Genestealers sought to close and overwhelm, the White Scar simply refused to be pinned, striking and wheeling away in the timeless fashion of his Chapter, a reminder that even in the grinding dark of the Deathwatch's war there was still a place for the wild joy of the hunt.
