Hobby: Ur Onceboss

Currently still in the process of working on a wide-ranging scope of different Jornath lore posts, focusing heavily on the Dramatis Personae, and the Regiments making up the Imperial Defense. While I'm still piecing all those lovely words together, I thought I'd continue to show off a few more of the minis I've gotten around too. This time we have an actual participant in the Battle for Jornath, Ur Onceboss. Ur was a Snakebite Warlord who was a part of the Ork forces to land on Jornath proper during the second wave of the invasion, following the break up of the precursor kroozer which heralded the beginning of the ground war. Ur's Warband fought in the Kulan Exclusion zone, which saw him deep in the thick of the early wars most intense combat encounters. When J.S.O.B. and the Sons of Medusa began their targetted raids on Ork commanders following the containment of the attempted breakout onto Nizajain Isle, Ur was one of the Task Force's primary HVT's. The Astartes strike, left Ur's warband totally annihilated, and the vicious warboss missing his left hand. Left not only physically and mentally scarred, Ur had become a social pariah within the traditionalist society of the Snakebites, causing him to wander the scrap cities of the Ork landing zone looking for mercenary work. He would eventually find purpose in the employ of Bonebeard Blakkstaff, whose powerful magic and possession of the strangest jet-black choppa Ur had ever laid eyes on convinced the Once-boss to act as the psykers personal bodyguard. Soon placing him to the center of numerous more Imperial assassination raids.
