Ragnar Blackmane
Ragnar Blackmane, also called the Young King, the Gifted One, or the Allslayer, is a goddamn beserker killer werewolf of the Space Wolves Chapter, and the only Space Wolf approaching Mary Sue levels of ridiculousness. To be fair, it's hard to use the term Sue in context here, since every book is a flashback, so we know he has to survive. Basically everybody he ever knew is dead by the end of the series, too.
Somewhat uniquely, he also has six different books. Four of these were written by William King (of Gotrek & Felix fame), while the other two were written by "Lee Lightner," a pseudonym for two separate guys. The latter two books are diametrically opposed in terms of editorial quality, with the sixth being quite well edited, and the fifth being barely legible in the last four chapters.
Although it is repeatedly stated that he got his nickname (yeah Blackmane is a nickname, what kind of surname would it be anyway) after the black Fenrisian Wolf he hunted and whose pelt he wore as a fellow wolf fetishist, almost all art depicting him show a white/grey wolf pelt on his shoulders. Go figure.
He does have Batman's utility belt; containing high-tech, non-standart and possibly non-existent equipment such as:
- Micro grenade dispenser! Dispensing micro grenades instead of the regular frag, krak and melta grenades. Grenade capacity: Unlimited.
- Tubes of syntiflesh! Which obviously substitutes flesh when you are wounded. Duh.
- Emergency repair liquid ceramite! Or some such shite, for when you have time to mend the cracks in your bathroom tiles.
- Food obsessed sidekick! For some heavy-lifting errands, extra plot armour and occasional grimdark comedy. There are more than one and they all live in a secret compartment of the utility belt.
He also lived on Holy Terra for a few years, as well as having an absolutely ridiculous amount of plot armour.
The Books
Space Wolf: This book covers everything about the recruitment and training of the Space Wolves, as seen through the perspective of Ragnar. It starts with Ragnar still a Fenrisian tribesman. After some viking-related escapades (including the death of his father and sexy time with a viking chick), Ragnar goes batshit insane and kills tons of rival tribesmen. This causes the Wolf Priests to show up and recruit him. Then a drill sergeant named Hakon yells at him a lot. The book concludes with his first assignment as a Space Wolf, in which he and his buddies stop a Chaos invasion at the cost of two thirds of his team. Ragnar even kills a Chaos Sorcerer named Madox.
Ragnar's Claw: A friend/ally of Great Wolf Logan Grimnar (who is, inexplicably, an Inquisitor) shows up and tells Ragnar to help rebuild an amulet. A love interest (who happens to be a psyker) dies to imprison a Greater Daemon of Nurgle. Entertainingly, Ragnar gets pissed on by a drunk Ork.
Grey Hunter: The Thousand Sons decide to repay the Space Wolves for Prospero by defiling a sacred planet. Naturally, this pisses off the Wolves. Due to his plot armour, Ragnar kills Madox (again) before throwing the spear of Leman Russ through the eye of Magnus (yes, Daemon Primarch Magnus).
Wolfblade: Ragnar is banished (but only for a little while) and forced to protect a Navigator house named Belisarius. Why? Because he threw the most sacred relic of the Wolves into the Throne-forsaken Warp. This leads to much dicking about on Terra as well as massive amounts of just as planned.
Sons of Fenris: There's a war between the Dark Angels and some balls-of-steel PDF troopers on a promethium-filled Death World called Hyades. Ragnar gets involved in some just as planned in the jungle.
Wolf's Honour: There's more Inquisitors, some Daemon Worlds, Wulfen, and a planet called Charys that's going to get BLAMmed. Basically, Ragnar tries to steal the spear of Russ back and, in doing so, pisses on centuries of Magnus' just as planned.
Note: During these novels, Ragnar sent 968 silent prayers to Russ to maintain his plot armour's thickness.
