Vladimir Pugh

From Lexicanum

Lord Vladimir Pugh is the current Chapter Master of the Imperial Fists. He is a stern man and does not distance himself once a crusade is launched. He likes leading the troops in battle instead of sitting at the rear. Whilst not a particularly inspirational leader, Vladimir Pugh is as meticulous a planner as any Chapter Master in the Imperial Fists' history. He has had his taste buds excised as a penance because he lost a hundred and seventy Marines in one terrible action (and also because the Emperor in his current state cannot taste, smell or touch).
