Iskar the Blighted

Iskar the Blighted.jpg

Iskar the Blighted has been cast out of his Legion. He has scrubbed the crimson of Colchis for the black of Abaddon's Legion, but even that brotherhood is one he has forsaken. The only compact he holds dear to his heart is his faith in the Dark Gods, and his mission of spreading their message to all the stars in the galaxy. But brighter than that flame of devotion is his need for vengeance, burning high despite the ten thousand years since he knelt in the ashes of Monarchia.

The rents start at his eyebrows and converge roughly at the base of his skull/ The rents heat up when his anger is roused and the skin around them is permanently scorched and blackened. The rest of his skin is parchment-white and covered in minuscule scribing. Though he broke from the Word Bearers long ago he retains his devotion of copying the Book of Lorgar on his skin with henna ink; by the time he has finished the words on his feet his head and shoulders have worn clear and he begins again.
