Aloysius van Burenvan
Aloysius van Burenvan is a sniveling aristocratic Astra Militarum Brigadier, who is spoiled and selfish even when compared to his peers. These negative traits came to the fore during a battle with Tyranids, when van Burenvan fled for his life and his selfish cowardice cost the lives of dozens of Guardsmen, who had been left behind to cover his retreat. However, during his escape, van Burenvan was swallowed whole by a Mawloc, but luckily for the Brigadier, the Ogryn Nork Deddog had been assigned as his bodyguard. As van Burenvan pleaded for Nork to save him, the Ogryn stunned the Mawloc with a headbutt, before pulling the Brigadier free from its mouth. Though his lower legs had been melted by the Tyranids' bio-acids, van Burenvan still lived and Nork carried the whimpering Brigadier to safety.[1]
