Castor

Lord General Castor....Baahhh!

Lord General Freddie Stalin "Mercury" Castor is the Imperial commander of the Cadian forces sent to fix all the weird shit going on in sub-sector Aurelia.

Retribution

After hearing many reports of Aurelia's frequent problems and the Imperial Guardsmen's inability to get shit done, Castor Adrastia decided that enough was enough and decided to take matters into her own hands and started a party. Castor was invited because she doesn't like tactics and he does. He accompanied Inquisitor Adrastia and LORD Commissar Bernn. He later met up with Sergeant Merrick after he was incapacitated during a Tyranid ambush (Which he joked that Merrick may still be "salvageable"). After killing the Tyranid Hive Tyrant and adding its head to his ridiculously enormous collection of trophies, he was informed that the Ordo Malleus would perform Exterminatus on the entire sub-sector (Ordered by the corrupted Chapter Master Azariah Kyras). Castor assisted Adrastia in her investigation. After finding evidence of Kyras' corruption, they proceeded to travel to the planet Typhon to confront Kyras for his HERESY. After killing the Eldar stationed there, they discovered, too late, from Kyras, that the Eldar were actually preventing the Exterminatus fleet from entering the sub-sector. So after escaping the planet, teleporting to a space hulk and escaping from said space hulk, Castor finally confronted the now transformed Mega-Uber Daemon Prince Kyras in the dead world of Cyrene. After a SHORT battle (Seriously the massive Guard army Castor brings makes it piss easy), Kyras is defeated.

About Castor

Castor is arrogant, cocksure, sarcastic, laid back and a huge glory-hog. He has the voice of a upper-class Englishman, has the looks of an older Freddie Mercury and sometimes, the mannerisms of a colonial big game hunter. He has absolutely no qualms of sending countless guardsmen to their deaths just so that he could make another gargantuan effort to move his trophy cabinet six inches closer to the enemy base. He does this for the lulz. He has a fetish for collecting dangerous creatures and xenos heads (particularly Tyranids) for his impossibly fuckehuge collection. Despite being seen as a proud, boastful and quite clueless general, he is very intelligent and cunning. He even knew that Kyras was on Cyrene, due to the fact that Cyrene had already undergone Exterminatus and was therefore passed over by the currently operating Exterminatus fleet.

Having lost his left arm, he replaced it with a bionic replacement that allows him to wield weapons like sniper rifles, flamers, meltas, bolter guns, or plasma guns with only one hand. He also wields a sabre in his relatively intact right hand. He can kill space marines and tyranid warriors in melee, which is awesome, and with the melta he becomes a rape machine with his retinue. Seriously, spam the fuck out of meltas in the IG campaign and everything will die ridiculously fast.

Unlike many other Imperial Lord Generals, Castor is badass enough to get right into the fighting and is a very skilled fighter and a balls out badass, more than making up for the fact that besides his mechanical arm, he's just a regular human in carapace armour. This combination of traits has elevated Castor to the same lofty heights of Cain, Gaunt, and Sturn in terms of imperial guard characters. Plus god damn that moustache.

Quotes

Trivia

• He's voiced by Richard Doyle. Quite known as the voice of Ulyoath and Pious Augustus from Eternal Darkness, The Fury and Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid, Enoch from Ben 10 and Moebius from The Legacy of Kain.
• He may be descended from Blackadder's General Melchett. Which may explain his habit of sending millions of guardsmen to their deaths.
• He has a mustache that would make the majority of Imperial commanders jealous.
• He's Creed's second cousin; despite the fact that said cousin rarely mentions him and vice-versa.
• At least during the Aurelia Campaign, he was authorized by said cousin to use a slightly less powerful -but still incredibly useful- version of Tactical Genius. Sadly, he can't turn rocks into Baneblades, (at least, not yet) but woe to the unfortunate foe who sees a Valkyrie Transport dropping a Metal Box in the middle of the battlefield (Even aboard an uncharted space hulk accessed through a collapsing teleportarium). Said box may turn into either infantry or a Leman Russ. There's a reason why it's been nicknamed the Box of Rape.
• Lost his left arm after having it eaten by a Hydrophant Bio-titan during the battle of Philippinia VII.
• Aforementioned Hydrophant Bio-titan's head is now on his Trophy wall.
• Has an Impossibly HUEG Trophy Room.
• Said Trophy Room has the head of every single Tyranid species/sub-species ever encountered by the Imperium... EVER.
• He's also manly enough to ask noise marines if they can hear him say 'shoot them now'.
