Dossier picture of "Shiv"[1]

Like most of his fellows in the 13th Penal Legion, little is known of the man called "Shiv." His past, name, and whether he served in the Imperial Guard like most of the "Last Chancers" is all shrouded in mystery, fitting for a man as quiet as Shiv.[1]

What is known is that until Colonel Schaeffer plucked him out of the Arbites' hands on Lector Prime, Shiv was being held in temporary custody following an investigation into the serial murder of twenty civilians over a five year period. An accomplished assassin, Shiv is fully capable of infiltrating almost any area undetected and it is rare for a man to every hear him coming unless he wants them to.[1]

Where he acquired such rare weapons as a plasma pistol and mono-filament knife are simply more questions to the ever growing list. Wherever they came from, Shiv uses them both masterfully.[1]
