Vat grown & adapted to purpose from conception by Magos’ Biologi & Cyber Artisans, the Skitarii Soldier Veck was recently plucked by The inquisition from a life of ritualised & monastic guardianship aboard a defence station.
Created on the Forge World Synford for a lifetime in service to the Cult Mechanicum Militarum, Veck's life began with years of accelerated gestation, chemical alteration, and cybernetic adaptation in the Growth Vats of Clade Syndford's Magos’ Biologi and Cyber Artisans.
As goes for all Skitarii, he was created with an Omnissiah Ordained purpose; to act as the vanguard of the Cult Mechanicus Militarum Legions of Forge World Synford. But not all soldiers of the Machine God are immediately destined for life at the spear-head of the quest to reclaim mankind's lost knowledge.
In the case of [Geneform: Krassitus. Unit: C14] Veck, he had until very recently assumed his life of quiet protective-ritual and martial-meditation aboard a centuries old orbital defence station would be his ultimate fate.
With the arrival of an unexpected visitor from the Holy Ordos of The Inquisition, bearing a mysterious cargo for the station's Logis Master, it appears Veck C14's 20 years of ritualised and monastic guardianship has come abruptly to it's end.

Appearance
Physical Description

A heavily cybernetically adapted individual, who apparently retains little by way of visible biological features.
Body Features
Approx. 6 and a half feet tall, with a lean and long-limbed frame.

His upper body (chest/shoulders) is clad in the Sacred Novicius armour of the Skitarii, a small wax-sealed strip of binaric script attached to the armour plates of his left shoulder.
His limbs appear largely original, at least in shape, although their armoured lines and contours are irregularly interrupted by the bumps and protrusions of his his cybernetics and adaptations.
He stands/ sits unnervingly still before you, regarding you patiently.
Facial Features
His face/ the visible parts of his head are entirely mechanical, although retaining some form of expressiveness via variations in the intensity of his eye-lenses and use of his blast shutters in place of eyelids.
His eyes are blue-lensed cybernetics, lit from within by a pale, electric-blue light that flickers in response to his words and emotional state.
He has three lens-eyes; one major (large and circular, right-side) and two minor (two smaller circles stacked vertically, left side)
