- - Diomedes being himself in a usual day.
Apollo Diomedes; also known as Day-o-MIDIs, Abaldo Diomedes, Boreale 2.0, and BRUVAIAMHITT, is the captain of the Blood Ravens honour guard and the main space marine protagonist of Dawn of War 2: Retribution. He also seems to be a close relative of Indrick Boreale due his unique intonation and highly elaborated ingame responses. Ohh, and he's also bald, as in Captain Boreale bald. He is also notable for constantly soliciting Eldar Farseers for sex on the battlefield with bellowing cries of; "FAHSEEYAH LET US TO IT!!". In essence, he is Boreale with a lesser level of win and more grimdark. Funnily, the portions of his dialogue that aren't deployed at maximum volume are actually decent, as seen in the final mission and the Blood Ravens ending. They are, unfortunately, nowhere near as hilarious.
History
Dayomidis has served as part of the Blud Rehvens for quite some centuries, being the yes-man of Azariah Kyras, allowing him to reach the level of captain of the honour guard. In Chaos rising, he makes it his mission to obstruct the lives of Gabriel Angelos and FC Hairgel, but canonically survives to Retribution.
Unfortunately for him all his sycophancy was being dumped in a traitor chapter master allied to Chaos; how he deals with this and manages to redeem himself is dealt in Retribution, where he looks for hints of who is the Ascended, encouraging players to shout "oh come on Diomedes, just look at Kyras, do you really think he is one of the good guys?" Tellingly, neither of the Blood Ravens he encounters in the campaign show any respect for him. After finally realizing he had been serving a heretic all these centuries, he suffers a heroic BSOD which forces the Ancient to reveal his identity. After some brief but precise words about what truly makes a Spess Mehren, as well as the threat of a meltagun being shoved in certain orifices, he is back on track and goes with Cyrus, the Ancient and Martellus to kick Kyras arse. In the resulting fight Gabe, who was already trying to kill Kyras, gets stomped by him, which finally makes Dayomidis show he actually seems to have got his rank due being a powerful warrior and proceeds to annihilate Kyras, finishing him with a nice orbital bombardment and delivering a kickass ending speech.
Diomedes is believed to have suffered from a unique Psyker mutation known as "Banebladeitism" since birth. This reputably gives him the ability to control any kind of Baneblade in existence. He is also believed to have been the spawn between an Ogryn and a Baneblade, making him half-Baneblade. It is rumored that instead of making his home on a Blood Ravens battle barge or strike cruiser, he instead contains himself to a Baneblade painted in Imperial Fists colors.
He was also in the Dark Knight as Detective Stephens, in Fallout as Joshua Graham,in Halo 4 as the The Didact (Who surprisingly is almost bald). Ohh and he's also secretly the collective intelligence of Harbinger from the Mass Effect series. He was also recurring character in the oldfag crime series THE EQUALIZER. You can now hear him in Bioshock Infinite as Captain Cornelius Slate, who might as well be his (great)^20 great grand father, and is bald.
