Editing Tarkus (section)

==Dawn of War II==
In-game in ''Dawn of War II'', Tarkus is by the side of your character, the [[Blood Ravens Force Commander]], right from the start of the game. His ranged orientation and focus on cover-camping is a stark contrast to your melee-based I-don't-give-a-fuck-about-cover style of leadership. All the other squads who join you consider him the best of you, and he's one of two people in the game, the other being Captain Thule, that Avitus actually likes. (Three, if you count the Commander, since he never insults ''you'' directly.) Other than that, he finally gets the chance to put his [[Terminator]] honours to good use during the penultimate Eldar mission when he recovers a set from amongst stolen relics of the chapter.

Personality-wise, Tarkus is just as idealistic as Thaddeus about their chapter and their role in the Imperium, compared to the cynicism of Avitus and pragmatism of Cyrus, but way more professional about it. He's slower to anger, and has his head on much straighter. Apart from brief vitriol towards the Eldar, he has few emotional outbursts, mostly about telling the others to pack in their antics.
