Editing Deathwatch Champion (section)

==How can I become one?==
Well, other than the low chance of already becoming a Space Marine, to be inducted as a Deathwatch Champion is only rivaled by the ball crushingly tough [[Grey Knights|Grey Knight]] initiation rites.

Once inducted into the [[Deathwatch]], a Space Marine in the Deathwatch may be elevated to the status of Champion by several means. Most commonly, it is bestowed by a [[Watch Captain]] in recognition of a mighty feat of arms in battle. However, Champions can also be elevated based on the strength of their longstanding courage and steadfastness, [[Magic the Gathering|by the turn of the Emperor's Tarot,]] or by common acquiescence of their Battle Brothers.

A Deathwatch Champion might already be a hero of great renown before attaining his station, long noted as being destined for great things; or he could easily have been a newly arrived Space Marine, just beginning his Vigil and virtually unknown among the Deathwatch, up until the point in which he performs a feat so daring it demands the recognition of his peers.
