Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine/Characters

This character sheet includes the major characters in Warhammer 40000: Space Marine.

Notice: Being one of the series in the Warhammer 40000 universe, some of the tropes related to their own races will also apply to them. Also, this sheet will contain some unmarked spoilers.

Captain Titus (Space Marines)
"Voiced by: Mark Strong"

Captain Titus is the commander of the Ultramarines' 2nd Company, and personally takes part in the defense of Forge World Graia. Relatively young for a Space Marine, he is a decorated veteran of several major campaigns, and his exploits have earned him a reputation as one of the mightiest Ultramarines in recent memory. The men under his command are dearer to him than his own life, and if one of them is killed, Titus will not stop until the enemy responsible has paid in blood.

Titus still mourns the recent loss of his mentor, Captain Trajan, who was killed by Eldar in a routine mission Gone Horribly Wrong. Titus held Trajan to be the ideal of Ultramarine nobility and honor. Now that he has inherited command of Trajan's company, Titus aspires to be the kind of leader that Trajan was.

Titus was always interested in the thinking behind his enemy's tactics ever since he first stepped on the battlefield. With every battle, he experienced firsthand how differently each alien species and daemon horde fought on the ground, and gradually, patterns emerged. To better understand the enemy and their motivations gives him insight into their strengths and weaknesses, and into how to exploit those weaknesses in battle. His ability to predict how a group of enemies would attack saved many lives over the years. Now that he’s a Captain, Titus works to instill the same critical thinking in the men under his command.


 * A Father to His Men
 * Badass: Par excellence.
 * Badass Baritone: Mark Strong gives him a very manly voice.
 * Bling of War: He's a Captain, it's practically a contractual obligation.
 * The Captain
 * Chainsaw Good: His basic weapon is the iconic Chainsword.
 * Drop the Hammer: He can equip Thunder Hammers. They're quite devastating.
 * Determinator: Especially.
 * The Hero
 * Military Maverick
 * Shoulders of Doom: He's a Space Marine.
 * : And HOW!

Brother-Sergeant Sidonus (Space Marines)
"Voiced by: Richard Hawley"

Sergeant Sidonus has been a Ultramarine for over 200 years, and serves as Captain Titus' second-in-command. He is also Titus' closest friend and confidant.

He's seemingly seen it all, with a "been there, done that, no problem" attitude and dry sense of humor that instantly serve to defuse tense situations. But when faced with the enemy, Sidonus is their worst nightmare – a brutally efficient warrior who won't stop until every enemy lies dead at his feet.

Sidonus bears the marks of his extended service to the Imperium – including a bionic arm to replace one lost in battle against the Tyranids. When an Eldar weapon destroyed his eye and part of his face, Sidonus decided to leave the scars in place as a reminder of his victory over this formidable enemy.


 * Artificial Limb: His left arm is augmetic, he got it after he lost his original arm fighting against the Tyranids.
 * Badass: One of the times we see him, he's slaughtering several Chaos Space Marines handily and manages to slit a Bloodletter's throat with a Chainsword.
 * Badass Grandpa
 * Cool Old Guy
 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Good Scars Evil Scars: Has a pretty nasty burn scar covering the right side of his face.
 * Number Two
 * Old Soldier
 * Sergeant Rock
 * Shoulders of Doom: He's a Space Marine.

 * Shoulders of Doom: He's a Space Marine.

Brother Leandros (Space Marines)
"Voiced by: Noah Huntley"

Leandros is the most recent inductee to the Ultramarines command squad. He is a "by the book" Ultramarine, and often speaks with little tact, since to his mind, all actions must serve the Emperor. He looks up to Titus and Sidonus, especially Titus, whom he sees as the type of Ultramarine he aspires to become.

He will question the motives of anyone he suspects of not giving their all for the Imperium, and has lost perspective on what it's like to face the horrors of the universe from a normal human standpoint, and is patronizing to the surviving Imperial Guardsmen he encounters.

He sometimes goes overboard in pursuing what he thinks is a noble course of action, because he wants to prove himself and his abilities.


 * Badass: For all his flaws, Leandros wouldn't have been awarded Terminator honours without being badass.
 * Knight Templar
 * Lawful Stupid: Segues into this at times, like when.
 * New Meat: Very young for a Space Marine, he doesn't even have a single service stud yet.
 * Shoulders of Doom: He's a Space Marine.

Second Lieutenant Mira Nero (Imperial Guard)
"Voiced by: Christine Roberts"

Second Lieutenant Mira leads the survivors of the 203rd Cadian Regiment. Mira's experience and skill as a tactician, coupled with her uncompromising humanity and refusal to give up, commands fierce loyalty among her men.

The 203rd Cadian Regiment was en route to another warzone when their troop carrier was suddenly diverted to Forge World Graia, as they were the only Imperial Guard force close to the planet. The Regiment was the only force that managed to reach the surface before the Orks captured the planet's defense guns.

They were decimated after the Orks cut them off from orbital support and reinforcements, forcing Lieutenant Mira to take command, as she was the highest ranking officer left. All she wants is to save the soldiers she's sworn to lead, but she does not hold much hope of holding off the Orks much longer.

"Mira: "I'm all that's left, my lord, unless my commanders rise from the grave. So far, they seem content to stay put.""
 * Action Girl
 * A Mother to Her Men
 * Badass Normal
 * You Are in Command Now: Why is a 2nd Lieutenant in charge of a whole Regiment, normally commanded by a Colonel?

Inquisitor Drogan (Inquisition)
"Voiced by: Danny Webb"

Inquisitor Drogan is a relentless psyker of the Ordo Xenos, and bears the physical and mental scars of a lifetime spent in the darkest corners of the galaxy.

Many years ago, he fell into the hands of fiendish aliens who tortured him for years. Since then, his hatred of alien species has driven him to develop innovative new ways of destroying them, and to pursue technologies and techniques thought lost or impossible.

His greatest creation is the Psychic Scourge, which channels tremendous amounts of Warp energy, provided by the Power Source, that can be tuned to destroy specific species, while leaving humans unharmed.

""I am scientist and soldier both, Captain." - Inquisitor Dragon."

"Voiced by: Mark Lewis Jones"

Warboss Grimskull (Orks)
"Voiced by: Neil Maskell"

Warboss Grimskull leads the Waaagh! invading Forge World Graia, and is extremely cunning. As a result, his Waaagh! is well organized, making it all the more dangerous. He has conquered several worlds before reaching Graia, and if he gets his hands on the Warlord-class Titans on the Forge World, he could be unstoppable.

 * Big Bad: Initially. And still causes plenty of problems after Nemeroth appears.
 * Blood Knight: He's an Ork.
 * Determinator: "I ain't so easy to kill."
 * Genius Bruiser: For an Ork, anyway. His Waaagh! is rather well organized, and he orders them to capture and use the planetary defense guns, instead of simply looting them.
 * Large and In Charge: Would you expect any less from an Ork warboss?
 * Names to Run Away From

"Voiced by: Mark Lewis Jones"

Nemeroth is the leader of the Chosen of Nemeroth Warband, which is invading Forge World Graia. He is a Chaos Sorcerer Lord with strong psychic powers, and is equipped with Terminator armor and a pair of Lightning Claws. Like most Chaos Space Marines, he is sadistic and arrogant.
