Sergeant Arya Temujin

Sergeant Arya Temujin is the leader of Squad Temujin in the Tales of Loyalty series. He originally hailed from the White Scars Chapter, but for valorous deeds he was accepted into the Silver Knights.

Temujin is a descendent of the people evacuated from Chogoris before the planet was annihilated by renegade Night Lords. He has grown up with the history of this event, and it has affected him deeply. As a young child he vowed that there would be justice for this travesty, and that he would prevent such horrors from ever occurring again. He applied himself to the White Scars and passed all trials to make himself an Astartes. Over his centuries of service he proved himself to be a skilled leader, especially in small team tactics.

It was these skills that eventually gained him entrance to the Silver Knights. On a world in Segementum Tempestus he successfully managed to sneak a full strength tactical squad into a heretic stronghold of Chaos undivided. The world had held out for two years already, being manned by Chaos Marines and a heavy contingent of Dark Mechanicus. In one night he and his team assassinated the Warlord leading the horde as well as many of his lieutenants, along with several of the corrupted techpriests. The most amazing thing is that he managed to do this without losing a single man, though all were injured. The Chaos band fell apart to infighting soon after, and the world was retaken in the name of the Imperium.

While normally level headed, Temujin has shown some signs of obsession in relation to his mission. This can be seen when he completely ignores the threat Dark Eldar pose to the Effrenus Sector in order to continue the search for the reborn Senshi Esin. Whether or not this will prove to be a detriment is something only time can tell. He has recently shown this obsession again when met with Eldar who had important information, but his men were able to talk him down before violence occurred.
