Editing Naaman

[[File:Naaman and Scouts.jpg|thumb|300px|I have, after a long and hard search found an artwork of this badass fella.]]

==[[Brother-Sergeant|Veteran Sergeant]] Naaman==
A [[Dark Angels]] special character back in third edition.

Like a [[Torias Telion|certain other pretender]], Naaman was a Scout sergeant, but has been around in the fluff for a LOT longer and he did have his own model and his own special rules. WAAAH.

However, [[derp|suddenly]] he died; he was the protagonist of the novel: '''Purging of Kadillus''', which involved his most famous ''(and final)'' campaign against the [[Orks]] on [[Armageddon|Piscina.]]

He was not necessarily the [[Mary Sue|best]] Scout sergeant to have ever lived ''(evidenced by the fact they killed him off)'', but he was made [[Awesome]] by the way they portrayed him; in the novel [[Belial]] was frustrated by his insubordination, that he would frequently do whatever he felt like, though to usually [[plot armor|great effect]] regardless.

[[Ravenwing]] sergeants would also defer to him, though in his original rules he was a member of the [[Deathwing]], so that explains that.

==History==
[[File:Namaan1.gif|thumb|The original Scout special character.]]
According to the official records Naaman lived from 823-997.M41, so a reasonable lifespan for a [[Space Marine]] at least. (Not really, the average Space Marine lifespan is at least 250.)

After the initial repulsion of the Dark Angels forces movements against the [[Orks]] on Piscina IV, he was the only one to survive the [[Mork|cunning]] counter-attack of [[Nazdreg Ug Urdgrub]] yet he returned to the Dark Angels' base of operations and later managed to lead a team of [[Scout Squad|Scouts]] through the Ork lines and sentries to discover and relay information about the tellyporta systems used by Nazdreg to such deadly effect.

Then later when he was holding off the counter-attacks from [[Awesome|within]] Nazdreg's base, he was able to direct the [[Deathwing]] to remove an energy relay from the teleportation base, presumably in order to disable it. Unfortunately he was eventually killed by an exploding [[Dreadnought|Ork Deff Dread]]. But his name was added to the Book of Honour for the Dark Angels.

==Stolen Relics==
Yes, the [[Blood Ravens]] got their greasy mittens on Naaman's wargear after he died. A sniper rifle called '''Naaman's Silence''' [[What|found]] its way off planet and into the armoury of sergeant Cyrus. It is said to be very effective at killing Orks.

==Homebrew Rules==
If you look hard enough, homebrew rules for Naaman can be found all over the internet, each with their own variation on the original 3rd edition theme. This is just one more addition until [[Games Workshop|GW]] finally decide to bring him back.

*Naaman can be added to any Dark Angels scout squad for 70 points, replacing the Sergeant.
