Severina Raine is a Commissar currently attached to the 11th Antari Rifles, one of the Astra Militarum regiments fighting to defend the worlds of the Bane Stars from a Chaos cult called The Sighted.
History
Severina is the focus character of the short story Execution, as well as the novel Honorbound, both written by Rachel Harrison.
She was deployed with the 11th Antari Rifles to the Bane stars system to aid the Imperium's war effort in the system. When the regiment was ordered to attack an enemy fortress, the captain of the regiment refused saying it was a suicide mission. He apparently forgot that saying this out loud next to a Commissar is another way of suicide.
Raine *BLAMMED* the captain and then had to calm down the regiment as she had just shot their commanding officer, who was apparently quite popular with the men. She stopped the regimental uprising by stating that the captain had refused the will of the Emperor and that she was a Commissar and shooting people who refused the Emperors will was her job. She then took command of the regiment and charged them into the fortress, where many of them died but they overcame the defenses and destroyed the fortress.
She believes members of the Regiment still hold a grudge, which considering she shot the commanding officer and then forced the men into a bayonet charge that even a Krieger would raise his eyebrows up at, this is probably and accurate assumption.
She's damn lucky she wasn't assigned to Catachans, because after that display, it wouldn't have been long until she turned up dead in the middle of the night, several lasgun bayonets stuck in her corpse.
Although she's not the only female Commissar portrayed in Black Library fiction, she is the only one with a (limited-run, admittedly) tabletop figure to her name. Of course, of the commissar characters who have had models (Gaunt and Yarrick) she is objectively the worst.
Crunch
GeeDubs wants those limited run models to sell, so they made rules for her.
She's a 36 point Commissar with an AP:-1 Bolt Pistol and a sword. Not a Power Sword, a normal sword with a mere AP:-1. She has the same Aura of Discipline and Summary Execution as normal Commissars, but with one bonus rule: Leading from the Front. If Severina herself is within 1 inch of enemy models, all squads in her Summary Execution range become Fearless instead. This makes her useful in close-range firefights or with melee squads.
