Penitent Auxiliary Edaca.

Snarky, Dark Humored, Vengeful, Bitter.

Edaca is an alien that has found herself in the forced employment of the imperium of man. Pressed into service to earn a worthy death. Chaos and all of its zealots will be destroyed

It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor of Mankind has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of His inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Man for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that He may never truly die.

Yet even in His deathless state, the Emperor continues His eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in His name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst His soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defense forces, the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the Tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat to humanity from aliens, heretics, mutants -- and far, far worse.

To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be relearned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.

Edaca was born on the tropical world of Ruktact. A world with originally a iron age Xenos, the mythical Lizardmen. These aliens are mostly whispered to exist in the far corners of the galaxy. A place Ruktact a originally was before the imperium's grand unification and expansion across the stars. Supposedly spread by powerful semi divine beings known as the old ones. They inhabit many worlds. Though those worlds are shrinking in number. Born from large spawning pools, These Xenos seem to have been engineered to be a highly spiritual group. This often clashed with the Atheist state mantra of the early imperium, crossed with the fact that they were aliens, bloodshed was impossible to pervent. Many of the pools across the galaxy was properly exterminated when contact was made. This caused a ripple through the warp that has supposedly made all lizardmen distrustful of humans. Humanity was not the main enemy of the Lizardmen however. Both the Daemonic hellish forces of Chaos and the Necrontyr, or as their now known as, The Necrons were ancestorial enemies of the Lizardmen. The xenos harboring a deep hatred for all things evil and unruly as chaos. And the Necrons having declared war on the old worlds during the early days of the galaxy.

Edaca is in fact quite old. At least 1100 years at least. The old ones seemingly having picked favorites. She was born a Kroxigor. A large gator like Anthro lizardmen. Towering over most humans in a very similar way that a ogryn abhuman towers over a baseliner. Her early memories was learning to help her tribe, having been raised by the shamans of the lizardmen to be a mix of skilled heavy labor and when the time came. A powerful warrior. This training proved effective as during her mid years, a large warp portal was tore open upon the planet. Unleashing swarms of Diseased Nurgle abominations and daemons upon her world. The fighting was horrid, many of her sisters and brothers were killed as a hundred years went by. Generations of lizardmen were lost while clashing blades with the forces of the chaos god. Thanks to the Lizardmen will to slay the monsters. Nurgle was slowly pushed back until a suicide mission could be led to shut the portal down completely. A Veteran Edaca, having spilled the pus-filled blood of the unclean hordes. Butchering many nurgles grandchildren in her wake was chosen for this mission. Days were spent besieging the portal and her tribesmen were often killed every day until finally the portal was sealed closed, but not before the chaos god decided to punish the Lizardmen for their efforts. The spawning pools that had birthed generations of lizardmen were tainted. And during their way back. Her forces were beset upon by the zombified mutated spawnlings that had burst from the infected pools. Over 60% Of the spawn pools being corrupted. The lizardmen that came out were malformed, in pain. And ravenous. Cannibalizing their older peers in massive swarms. This was in fact the apocalypse of their world. There would be no coming back from this. A suicide mission that had failed in the end. She still held her obsidian glass blade cleaving through many of the tainted siblings of hers, and what was left the nurgling forces.

When the fighting was done barely 45% of the remaining population on the planet had remained. And in the sky, dark ships flew over head as the imperium made contact. A inquisitor coming down to face with the remaining leader of the lizardmen, by proxy. Edaca had been the last of her generation, making her the oldest and the de facto leader in this scenario. The blight from nurgles accursed pox having completely destroyed Ruktacts Soil. The inquisitor while originally going to wipe out the enemy of mankind that is the alien, saw potential. Thanks to the natural strong spirit and body of the lizardmen, they had survived combat with chaos up close for years, and could not be corrupted like a standard human. And so, the Penitent pact was sign. A deal where the remaining lizardmen warriors would be drafted to be apart of the Imperial guard as both shock troops, and nigh slave soldiers in return for supplies to be shipped to their world. Edaca found her heavy blade being cast aside for heavy Imperial guard Gear. The Saurian Auxiliary regiment was born.

From here Edaca found herself fighting off her homeworld for huge amounts of time, Going across various imperial battlefields to help against the constant battle of chaos. Her preferred enemy being the worshippers of Nurgle, but often she was also sent to destroy Orks, Tau, and other Xenos as well. The lizardmen Regiment while not up to imperial code did bring good results and while demeaning to the lizardmen they were not labeled as soldiers, they were in fact labeled as "Pets" To the imperium. The same as a exotic hound that a human could get. Animals, not aliens. Meaning that until the inquisitor that signed them off gives the signal. they will keep serving mankind until their regiment runs out. But this is not going to happen. During their collection of Ruktakt, the tech priests onboard the colony ship that found the planet, dug out a untouched spawning pool. Taking the contents and cycled it into many geno pods. A cloning technology used to mass produce soldiers. Allowing the imperium to pick and choose their preferred lizardmen to print out to refill the ranks of the Saurian Regiment. Edaca knows about this project and even signed off on it. This has completely severed her ties to the old ones faith. and even has severed the ties of the rest of the Ruktakt population. Any and all other lizardmen tribes would in fact kill her for being a heretic against the once and mighty "Great Plan" Edaca is quite cynical towards these insults and have blasted other more zealous lizardmen when ordered to engage her fellow Xeno. Becoming a jackboot like bully to most other aliens.

Edaca's personality is in fact quite dark humored and what some would say mean spirited. Once a heroic barbarian willing to risk her life to keep the innocents of her tribe safe, she is now a bad attitude commando. To her there is no hope for the galaxy, but driven to see chaos lose, then to see herself win. She presses onward. Knowing that the day the great enemy is defeated the imperium will remove all traces of the Saurian Auxiliarys, and her tribe will be destroyed. But as long as she can take nurgle to hell with her, she will be happy. She isn't much into the imperial cult, xenophobia aside as she finds the emperor's vision to be lost. Especially now with the galaxy broken apart. She also smokes now, typically using cheaper leaf options. and possibly uses various combat related stims, both in the heat of battle. and for recreational use of getting high. Getting her off the stuff will be hard. Shes not exactly smart with the terminals of the imperium, rather relying on the smaller skink guardsmen to study it and use it for her.

Edaca's appearance is of a large Anthro like crocodile creature being a Kroxigor. She has been given Human Ogryn armor and gear since it fits her size, and she carries around a modified Laz cannon that now resembles a laz rifle. Her eyes a reptilian deep yellow that illuminates easily and glows. The main difference being that the cannon has a lower mag capacity but the shots completely punch through most things making it a good anti material rifle. She also owns a ripper gun. a close combat shotgun deigned to be massive for the Ogryn. She has attached a chainsblade bayonet to the shotgun for up close charges.

The current battle they now face is on the world of Gladius Prime as the siege of the planet only seems to grow impossible to control.

Gladius itself is a entire world with its own seasons. Its cities stretched far and wide, now are just concrete carcesses that loom over the horizon in ruins. A rather bad timing ork invasion has caused a massive amount of damage. Now all types of enemies of the imperium flood the battlefield searching to take the planet for themselves. Currently one of the only cities still left standing is Moenia's creed. Being used as a bastion for the imperial citizens to gather to until this crisis is over. Named after one of the founders of the gladius colony. A supposed priestess of the emperor. This city has been the staging area and her regiments current barracks over the last year, after being called in. Currently their main duties are to clear out the escaped exotic Xenos from a experiment gone wrong, along with destroying gene stealer cultist. Lizardmen being immune to the mutations and the infection they pose.
