Dahan

Background

Overview

Dahan has always had two great loves in his life. The first is a love of history, particularly the Horus Heresy period and the second is guns. The quest for knowledge of the events of the Horus Heresy was the down fall of Dahan career as a tech-priest. After being caught studying forbidden knowledge, his love for guns prevented his immediate execution. That day many a skitarii and even a couple Magos died trying to prevent Dahan and the tomes he obtained from leaving the planet. Unfortunately all the ancient tomes that Dahan had taken for the library were also destroyed.

During his retreat from the forge world Dahan was greatly wounded. These wounds lead to the replacement of his right eye and right arm with cybernetic devices. Massive scar tissue is still visible on his upper torso.

Desires and Goals

Dahan’s greatest desire is to build the greatest depositary of historical knowledge the Empire has ever seen and not hide it from the people. A secondary desire is to increase his collection of weapons. Dahan loathes the use of melee weapons but loves the artistic and historical value of them. His true love is beautifully crafted ballistic weapons.
