The Tantumirean Heresy:Remidius Jocastus

Name: Remidius Jocastus

Age: Early 30s

Gender: Male, cis

Appearance: Fairly lanky for a hive-born, Remidius has pale skin and slightly greasy-looking dark hair. His skin is clear but his features have a sharp cast to them, which accentuates the way he looks suspiciously at most things. He’s usually dressed in darker tones, and long coats over his jackboots.

Personality: Remidius is a dyed-in-the-wool copper, and his induction into the Inquisition has replaced his… hatred of criminal activity with a hatred of the real rot in the roots of the Imperium. He’s come from the streets, though, and hasn’t yet lost his humanity - although if people (whether they be witnesses or suspects) obstruct the justice he is trying to see done, he can get very nasty, very quickly.

Former Occupation: Adeptus Arbites Investigator, one of the (often plain-clothed) officers which gather evidence to identify crime and where it should be stomped upon by the Arbites Troopers, or for more complex cases.

Home World Class: Hive World

Other Info: His preferred weapons are a revolver with hard AP rounds and hollow-points for different circumstances, or a pump-action shotgun if things get nasty. With his induction to the Inquisition, he's now able to countenance the grey-area activities Acolytes are usually called upon to perform - the Inquisition is beyond Imperial Law, after all. In fact, with the right encouragement and opportunity, he might start to enjoy that a little too much...
