Editing Thaddeus (section)

==Overview==
A [[Blood Ravens| Blood Raven]] [[Assault Squad| assault marine sergeant]], Thaddeus is a confirmed hairetic, almost to the level of [[Blood Ravens Force Commander| Commander Hairgel]]. He is the first recruit from the hive world Meridian in centuries, having been drawn from the underhive gangs; this may in fact explain his ridiculous hairdo.

Serving in the commander's strike force, he is notably the youngest member, being only 80 or so when the events of [[Dawn of War II]] occur. (And as you can see, "young" is relative given he's old enough for a bus pass in ''our'' world.) This means that he spends a lot of time discussing what it's like to become one with the chapter, and acts as the naive new guy, in contrast to the cynicism of [[Cyrus]] and [[Avitus]]. Opinions vary on the quality of his speeches, given that they lack the [[Grimdark|grimdark]] of Avitus or the [[Manly Marines|manliness]] of Tarkus.
