Sons Of The Pyre Vet

Sons of the Pyre Veteran Sargent Azdrubal. He has scrimshawed the background of his right shoulder plate with bone taken from fallen enemies. This is a common practice among the chapters veterans. Sargents of the Sons are marked with a skull on their helmet and members of the Burned Ones with a bronze stripe. The Burned Ones are members of the Sons of the Pyre who have 'faced the pyre', a chapter ritual in which the participant voluntarily bows his face into burning coals as a sign of devotion to the Emperor.
