Kain

"WE ARE LEGION!"

A Black Legion space marine, and Eliphas's field commander/equerry-equivalent, who appears in Retribution. He's one of the two chaos heroes who never speaks outside of battlefield cries, probably because he doesn't require a cool voice to be awesome. Not as much of a fuckup as Neroth, although he does annoy Eliphas by getting downed by what appears to be a five-man scout squad at the beginning of the campaign. Despite not even being the commander of his respective faction, he beats Kaptin Bluddflag in combat if well-kitted, and is reasonably similar to Apollo Diomedes in combat potential.

Notable for being able to use almost all of the same power swords as Eliphas, alongside being the heavy-weapon hero of chaos, which makes his role equivalent of The Ancient, trading out mobility for hitting power in melee, and plasma cannons for a man-portable autocannon. Can spec into being a poor-man's plague champion absolutely covered in flies, a decent melee combatant completely overshadowed by Eliphas, or a heavy weapons guy who pops all the metal boxes.
