The Red Thirst Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Hey guys, I'm tryung to find information about the High Executioner himself, Fafnir Rann. I know Alexis Polux mentions him but is there any info at all about him otherwise? He has a bit of a supporting role in the audio book 'Templar' not much is learned about him however other than the fact he has "bled for the rite" to say whatever he wants about Sigismund, suggesting they are close brothers with Rann being the more bull headed of the two. He also has a Northern European accent and wields twin axes and a shield (of course ). The 'vibe' he gives off is the same as what can be found in Forgeworlds Badab War books about the Executioners chapter themselves, which of course makes sense seeing as he becomes their first Chapter Master.

Slips Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Hmm.... I guess I shall be getting Templar. Thank you!!! Also will he get Forgeworld rules in the future? If they do plan to Add Characters in at a later point, maybe. But its a very Tenuous Maybe.

jimbo13 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 BAH!!!! I feel like he's a fists Character that should be introduced because I feel like he's rather different from the bunch.

All the 30k IF Captains that I know of who've gotten some Background are all pretty different from the bunch :p I don't think I've read of one thats a "Cookie Cutter" Imperial Fists.

jeremy1391 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Rann is the MAN! He is probably the one character who really needs expanding! Hes a breaching captain who runs around with axes and a shield lol!

Well, for one, we still don't know if the Phalanx Warders (..with whom he shares heraldry ~_o) have a Captain/Leader/Commander other than Dorn, so, who knows?

I was hoping that he was there commander.

AfroCampbell Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I don't think he was their commander, remember the Wardens are an independent formation from the line companies that is used for defense of the Phalanx, and dispatched to support expeditionary fleets, and as far as the fluff currently goes from Templar, I vaguely remember it mentioning he was a line captain.... That being said there are a few characters who would be interesting to get: 1)Archamus and the Huscarls, currently stationed on Terra 2)Camba Diaz (Sigismund's opposite), and his cohort to retrieve armour from Mars (wouldn't be surprised to see him show up in a Mars book....) 3)Fafnir Rann - by the way, if you look at the heraldry of transfer sheet that was released on Open Day, you can clearly see Rann's heraldry present....

Slips Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 We also need some info on Demetrius Katalafque on top of the above list. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311175-fafnir-rann-i-need-some-info/#findComment-4125864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo13 Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Dumb question, does he wear Power Armor or Terminator armor? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311175-fafnir-rann-i-need-some-info/#findComment-4132108 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFeeder Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Dumb question, does he wear Power Armor or Terminator armor? I'm almost certain he wears power armour. Given his disposition as a breacher, I'd probably say MKIII plate.

Tyrannicide Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 His helmet is described as "prow-fronted", IIRC. I'd say Mk. III as well. I think we'll get rules for Rann later down the line as we draw closer to the Siege.

Marshal Rohr Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I'd prefer his Rann. FW can take up the reins of creating new characters for the fists. It's unimaginative if you need BL to hand hold your character creation.

It's unimaginative if you need BL to hand hold your character creation.That is true but certain characters who are iconic to the story need to be represented on the table. And wasnt Fafnir Rann first mentioned in the FW Badab books as the first chapter master of the Executioners?
