Bio
Everard Montbard is a passionate believer of the Imperial Truth and a fervent supporter of Chaplain Joranus and his rebuilding of the Iterator cadres, however he does not have the same oration skills as his close friend; or the patience. Montbard's tactic largely lies in delivering an ultimatum to senior personnel both on and off the field, to pledge belief in the Imperial Truth or be declared a Heretic and be put to the sword, for this reason the Lord Captain's skills and diplomatic efforts are largely reserved for active warzones where he can inspire the Iterators to greater faith.
History
Everard has always been a passionate warrior, dedicated to the Great Crusade and all it stood for; the expansion of the Imperium, the eradication of false religion and the spread of the Imperial Truth to the darkest corners of humanity. A long term friend of Joranus Aetheus, the two Astartes have fought dozens of campaigns together and are considered well suited to joint command, often with Montbard in the overall position of authority taking the sage advice of the Consul.
After the incident at Nestro and the conscientious proposal of Ychne Ghrem, Everard instead took on the role of counsel for his friend who had initial misgivings about the formation of the Company. After a full night of conversation, debate, argument and meditation both comrades emerged united and confident in the decision that their leaders were taking them in the right direction.
