Mike has written some rather fine Necromunda stories for Black Library and looks like a man whose father fucked a particularly goth looking parrot. If his mohawk and punk band are any indication, he certainly fits the part of a writer of Grimdark fiction.
Previously published sci-fi author, massive fan of the game. Has an appropriately massive 40K army and a dick bigger than ADB but not as big as Dan Abnett's, which isn't saying much.
He's one of the new wave of authors that came after they fired Laurie Goulding

A Genderless techpriest also appears in Brutal Kunnin' terrifying neckbeards who haven't seen their own genitals without a mirror in decades. Additionally, in Road to Redemption (one of the aforementioned fine Necromunda stories), there's a genderless Delaque, though it's framed there as "this Delaque's such a Delaque that no-one knows what they are."
