Provided Summary/Biography
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Born in the Trader City of Wolfsburg, situated on the West
Coast, Ast grew up like any other child, playing with other
local kids, pretending to be a soldier and recieving a basic
education. During his mid teens he primarily worked as an
apprentice armourer on behalf of the City Guard. Over his years
practicing in metallurgy and blacksmithing, he was efficient in
his ability to produce swords, pole arms, chainmail and armour.
His great love was that of producing the armour above all,
though lothed the idea of rivetting and linking chains for the
likes of Hauberks.
During the Second War for Kesslerlan, he had faced his first
combat engagement outside of quick spars to test his armour.
Scoring only a few, but efficient kills, he was able to
contribute to the defence of the province at Wolfsburg itself.
For three long bloody weeks Wolfsburg was sieged by Undead and
Demon forces. Defenders were cut down in equal measure to the
invaders. The city was devastated, but it held, though left a
smoking ruin - it was during this siege, Astandord had lost both
his parents. In the aftermath, Wolfsburg was warped, leaving the
survivors to attempt and rebuild in the tainted walls of their
city. Looters and raiders became an every day reality, requiring
an increase in guards and private militia. To this end, Ast
helped outfit a rag tag band of defenders that were willing to
help the city guard, before being pressed into service as
dedicated blacksmith and halberdier for the Kesslerlan State
Army.
Everyone in the city knew their danger, not only that from
outside, but from the taint left within. The foul magic used
during the siege was so potent, it remained for years to come.
It was not uncommon for those in Wolfsburg to eventually become
a demon host - as was the case with his sister Lila. One night,
without warning, her cold shrill screams set the city awake as
her body heaved and pulsated, the Chaos Warped beast inside of
her trying to break out. Rushing in, Ast was beset by the horror
that condemned his eyes. His sister in pain, with no chance to
save her, he took his long sword and ran her through the neck,
leaving the body still and silent. The creature did eventually
burst through, but was so under-developed that it was easy to
dispatch. Due to the evidence of demonic incursion in her body,
Astandord was free of any crime.
Astandord proceeded to serve in domestic defence campaigns over
the next three years, and two Military Offence Campaigns. His
time was spent serving primarily on the northern border and
sometimes within the Northern Wastes themselves, though
occassionally his regiment was deployed to the east to fend off
attacking swarms from the Eternal Swamp. In his time, he had
fought countless Greenskin Warbands, Undead hordes, Demonic
incursions and insurrections from petty traitor factions within
the Dominion. In his service, he earnt an impressive record and
quickly found himself raised from lowly trooper and blacksmith
to Sergeant at Arms. He was even eligible for the selection
process for joining the Schwarzegarde. Unfortunately, during an
altercation with several of the men under his command (all
parties involved were drunk), he over stepped his mark and
murdered (by accident) one of his comrades. Accepting
responsibility for this, Astandord pleaded to serve in a penal
legion, to avoid marring the regiment's name. Some would argue
this was to save his own life, but many would agree that penal
service is by and by an almost guaranteed suicidal decision that
bears far more grotesque methods of dying. His clean record and
honesty in the matter aided in granting his request.
He was transferred to the Wolfsburg Penal Company, participating
in several conflicts of major scale during the Ork Wars of the
North. Eventually, he was working his way back up the ranks
again, by sheer determination of survival, outlasting the
handlers placed there to watch the offenders. Over time, the
lifestyle and expanded lack of military behaviour somewhat grew
on him and, after several years, he was declared as eligible for
release from Penal Service. Ast decided to stay, choosing a
permanent career in the WPC and was raised to rank of
Lieutenant. He and the Company served in two more campaigns,
before it met utter demise in defending Wolfsburg from a
gigantic greenskin attack. The captain was wounded and
transferred out, leaving Astandord to take on command as its new
Captain. It was at this point that the remnants and survivors
were transferred into the Wolfsburg Free Company, a newly
created Mercenary group, which was placed under Astandord's
command.
The WFC was ordered to Kernow by the Governor-General of
Kesslerlan himself, to remain there permanently. There is no
shortage of mercenaries in the Empire; Everything from retired
soldiers, to those taking Penal Service, or even sons and
daughters trying to restore their family name - a good amount of
them end up transferred to the Wolfsburg Free Company, to remain
there in servitude until the day they die. Now the Company has
arrived at Chaosgate, ready to make a profit, whether that be by
performing a dirty job for the highest bidder, or to take and
enact contracts of legal worth, Astandord is willing to do it
all... for the right price.
