	The Force Commander, also known as Force Commander Hairgel or FC; was a newly promoted officer from the [[Blood Ravens\|Bladh Ravens]] who is sent to Sub-sector Aurelia to help [[Davian Thule\|Davian Cool]] with a mess caused by the orks. Later he also has to fight some pesky Eldar, a splinter [[Tyranids\|Hive fleet]], a Black Legion warband (led by the supreme badasses [[Araghast the Pillager\|Araghast]] and [[Eliphas\|Eliphas]]) and the worst of them all: Imperial bureaucracy, against which even Angelos wishes good luck.

	FC is the main PC in Dawn of War 2, so the plot of the game is also his story, at the beginning of his history as a commander. The campaign itself starts pretty well. On Calderis he has to aid Davian Thule to protect the population from an Ork Waaagh, killing the aforementioned orks by the hundreds, rescuing his squad leaders, and do what marines are made to do: show the enemies of the [[God-Emperor of Mankind\|Emprah]] the color of their guts while they are still living. This is the point when strange things start to happen. Everyone thought that the Eldar were behind the attacks, but <s>Spike Spiegel</s> Cyrus suspected that [[Tyranids\|something worse]] was behind it all... too bad he was right.

	Hair-gel is able to use just about every weapon in the game, and is one of your two units that starts out with the ability to wear Terminator Armor. He's a bit better in melee than he is at range, although that's balanced out by the fact that you'll be taking a lot more damage up close. He's also the only one able to take commander items like drop pod and orbital bombardment beacons, unique jump packs and teleporters, as well as chapter banners. He's also the only one who can carry two-handed, non-termie thunder hammers, if that's how you like to roll.

	He's a decent beatstick with any weapon loadout, and can offer some nice buffs. Since he's mandatory for every mission, he's not very broken barring some bugs, so deciding what to do with him really depends on how the other members of the squad are specced. That said, he's best off in melee since unlike Thaddeus he can actually survive being in close combat on higher difficulties.

	He is quite the beast if you know how to use him properly; for example (in the original dawn of war 2), boost his melee to the max, spend the rest in heath points, give the man Isador's folly, the sunhammer and any iron halo as well as some scroll to boost his health and take orbital bombardment (it's even better if you get the ability that allows you to get a double one): it's OP as fuck and as long as you remain under fire your commander will get health back; for more giggles try charging any carnifex or heavy unit with this and shower the commander with that orbital bombardment, it never, NEVER fails and the commander actually GAINS health back.

	He is also a quiet dude and gives no fuck to rushing at the enemy shouting loud litanies, curses or anything; he just runs to the enemy. In fact, throughout the campaign he says NOTHING, even though he has an animated conversational portrait in the files, but since he is a player avatar, he stays silent and the responses of other squads are to his orders. Nevertheless, he does bellow some things as he attacks the enemy, the most famed of which is '''<strike>SHOW ME WHAT PASSES FOR FURY AMONG YOUR MISBEGOTTEN KIND!</strike> ALIEN BEANS!!'''

	Like almost any squad in Chaos Rising (save Thule, but he’s too awesome for that), he can turn to [[Heresy\|heresy]] with tainted equipment and foul deeds. His fate depends of how corrupted he becomes. If he remained pure, he is promoted to Captain of the Fourth Company, or is branded a renegade alongside Gabriel. If he was corrupted, he might get banished to the Eye of Terror for a century, executed, or become a Chaos Champion.

	You can name him if you wish. In the novels his name is Aramus, but the tie-in novel, (written by Paul Roberson, a noted science fiction author - not [[C. S. Goto]], for a change, Emprah be praised) is, like everything else from [[Black Library]], of questionable canon. Though as far as names go, it's pretty decent as a short hand for the guy.
