While much of Hero's past is classified or lost prior to his becoming a member of the "13th Penal Legion" his real name is known to be Green, and he was an officer in the Imperial Guard.[1b] Green was set for great things within the Guard. Graduating top of his class and maintained a remarkably unblemished record. All this changed, however, when he refused a direct order to throw his men's lives away in suicide charge at what he believed to be a pointless objective.[1a]
Stripped of his rank and sent to the penal colony at Bassus Prime 'Hero' was recruited into the Last Chancer's by Colonel Schaeffer. He is typically armed with a lasgun, laspistol and a close combat weapon of some sort, and will stand his ground no matter what. Shrugging off wounds that would kill many lesser men through pure willpower.[1a]
