Leyr was a Scout of the Tanith First and Only regiment.[2a]


Biography

One of the original Tanith members of the regiment, prior to enlisting with the Astra Militarum Leyr was a member of the Tanith Magna militia. He initially held the rank of Trooper.[1a]

When the Tanith First were deployed on Hagia, Leyr took part in the fighting to retake the Holy Doctrinopolis. At one point, Leyr, Yael and Kolea accompanied Colonel Corbec in a flanking manoeuvre on a guild hall that had been fortified as a holdout for some Infardi cultists. However, although the Tanith were able to infiltrate the hall through a disused basement, there were more cultists than they expected. Corbec and Yael were captured and Leyr was shot in the thigh, but Kolea managed to save his life and get him to Medic Dorden.[1a][1b]

Later, by the time of the regiment's deployment on Phantine in 771.M41, Leyr had been elevated to the ranks of the Tanith First's elite scout corps.[2a] He was now attached to the third platoon under Major Rawne.[2b]
