Governor Janes

Governor Janes originated from the world of Janice. A hive world that had been ruled by his family since the great crusade. The family demanded great things from their son, so from the age that he could walk he was rigorously drilled and educated. Janice was a world steeped in tradition, duelling was a part of their culture. Janes was expected to learn swordsmanship and master the use of the Las pistol. More important than that Janes was expected to be a competent leader, the Janes family kept their power over Janice through diplomacy, and action. Learning the art of diplomacy, persuasion and charm would be what Janes would excel in most of all. Janes’ administrative talents come secondary to his ability to, negotiate and judge the abilities and loyalty of others. Being a relatively young noble he is not always interested in sitting down and going through lists of stats. Never the less this skill and talent is continually growing. Janes’ marital abilities are growing as well, he is becoming more and more competent in his ability to lead men and develop strategies, however he greatly relies on the advise of others who know much more than himself, such as Captain Adthius of the Salamanders.

Janes would be told by his father, he was going to lead the Bogmoor Crusade, he told the nervious young man he had contacts in the high lords of Terra, they agreed to guarantee that Janes would be put in charge of the Bogmoor crusade. Janes’ father said “This is a once in a millennia opportunity for you and the family, you succeed or you die trying, that is all I have to say”, Janes accepted the task. Since Janes was made a Governor of the Bogmoor crusade he has realized that he has many short comings, and that in many ways he is ill prepared for the task of such a massive operation. To counter this, Janes has taken the council of those who are far wiser than himself. Whether that be tech priest, space marine, rouge trader or even alien the governor has made it his top priority to listen and learn from each of these individuals unique experiences, to the best of his ability.
