Caius Horatio Valorius

Caius Horatio Valorius

Horatio is a young military tribune serving with the legions of Remas. He was born of a patrician family, and has served as an officer with the legions since reaching manhood. He along with the smith Equus held back the Skaven horde at the tunnel mouth that was accidentally opened during the excavation of The Great Circus. Horatio was wounded during the battle and only saved by the valour of Equus, and they have become battle companions and fast friends over the years since. They have fought in several campaigns, including the Great War against Magritta, in which Horatio was raised to the rank of Tribunis Priori. Horatio carries an heirloom sword of great power that has been in his family since the earliest days of the Republic. He is a tall young man, fair of visage, with dark red hair. He walks with a military prescence and speaks with the force of command. He is a disciplinarian, and has a reputation for having the finest cohort in all the legions.

If Horatio is included in your army, he may be included as the general or as an additional character.

Magic Items

Celeritas....................................100 points

Celeritas has been in Horatio's family since the earliest days of the Republic, and its origins have been forgotten, if they were ever known. Celeritas is made of a shining bluish iron, and never needs sharpening. It never rusts or corrodes, and it feels extremely light for its size. Celeritas takes the form of a cavalryman's spatha, with a highly decorated gold hilt and guard.

The bearer of this weapon gains +3 Attacks. No armour save is allowed to its victim.

Horatio's Enchanted Armour...25 points

Horatio's Armour was made for him by Equus and a Dwarven Runesmith working together. It is made from a strange silver coloured that was smelted from a large stone that fell out of the sky. It was then forged into the traditional lorica, greaves, and vambraces and helm of a military tribune. What metal was left was used to form his shield. The armour is very light, but stronger than any other armour known.

2+ save including the shield bonus, the armour is non-encumbering.
