Dead Station Vigilant Squad Defensive Mode: Living Death Half ction, Cost 2, Sustained, When the Battle-Brother suffers critical damage from a foe with the Necron, Tyranid or Daemon Trait, he reduces the amount (after armour and toughness) by 1+2 for every conscious and living member of the Kill-Team within support range. If killed he can fight on for a sigle round before dying, in which he can ignore fatigue or crippled limbs. Can then burn FP to not die.

Pyros is old, not as old as the captain of the Salamander 2nd company, but close. As a result his Black skin and hair has faded to an ashy-grey and his burning red eyes have mellowed to a deep crimson. His body is covered in honour brands and new ones have no space left but upon his face. His palms remain largely clear as well, except for the ritual markings from his part in a set of the 'Rites of Internment'.
Pyros strides to battle in the 'Mantle of the Defiled Crusader', an ancient set of MkII armour that Pyros has sworn to purify of taint. Over this as a reminder of home, Pyros wears a Salamander skin cloak and this now bears the scars of many battles. For weapons, Pyros bears 'Surtur's breath' a heavily modified heavy flamer and for melee, an exceptionally ornate Thunder hammer, that when powered up encases its head in flame. Finally Pyros has spent many hours in his forge, making fittings to allow the attachment of a shoulder-mounted grenade launcher to his armour without damaging the ancient plate.
