Information Known by Arkangel Society
Lord Commissar-General Tomas J Rexuz was a well known figure on Arkangel even before he became a Lord-Captain. As one of the public faces for Astra Militarum recruitment for the Ruhort Sector he was at the forefront of the Hypatian Crusade, be it on the battlefield or alongside Lord Aschen. His warrant was given as a gift for his services to the Imperium during the crusade, but rumours abound that partly this was the New Lord-Governer cleaning house of his predecessors associates.

His warrant was issued to get him out of Ruhort Sector politics.
He was tagged to marry the previous sector governor's daughter, but it all fell apart messily.
Quotes
- "An old friend, perhaps too old, maybe I should get him a hover-zimmer?" - Cartwright
- "For someone who's been around as long as he has and seen as much, he's still ... passionate. Even impulsive. It doesn't always lead him to make good decisions, but you still kind of hope he doesn't lose that. Most would have." - Mac
- "Under that brazen, boisterous, loud and arrogant Imperium veneer there is a mon'keigh of true faith. I'm just not sure he knows it." - Ed'wari
- "Few believe as strongly as he does, after the things he has seen this is either very foolish or very brave or perhaps both. Either way he is a man to respect." - Maximillion
- "Friends don't need to keep count of how many times we've saved each others lives right? Or how regularly we endanger them?" - Krauss
- "I still don't like him. Doesn't mean I won't work with him of course. He's survived thus far, which few I've known can say." - Friedrich Sternenlicht
- "I would follow my Lord Captain to hell, and be confident that His light would lead us back. Clearly the God-Emperor has plans for this man, or else how would he have lived through as much as he has?" - Tempus
- "People don't get his value sometimes. It's like... his courage, his blind faith, his being everything a Guard recruitment poster could dream of - that's the engine. It is true that he doesn't think enough, and that without people like Sweetwater to temper him, he might well charge blindly into the void and be devoured along with anyone who follows him. But if we just had Sweets, and no Rex, then there's a risk we wouldn't charge anywhere at all." - Spider
- "You will have to make twice the trouble now, for the both of us, old friend." - Thunder
- "He is a dangerous man, for friend and foe alike." - Maximillion
- "Rather positively minded for someone who came from the guard. Seems to be competent enough Lord Captain and cares for their crew" - Colonel-Surgeon Schwarzekappel
- "Not known many use claws like he does and he uses them well. A shame my only real interactions with him were during mourning fallen comrades. Will have to talk more during the next excursion" - Decius Crane
- "The word that got used a lot in History of the Commissariat class was ... controversial." - Mac
- "I'm pretty sure there was nothing in the history books about him being a snitch." - Stacy
- "Remains a competent Lord Captain and willing to subject himself to experimental retroviruses so he can get stuck into the fight" - Azrael Schwarzekappel
- "I owe him one. Or three. I also appreciate it when someone responds to the awful day I've had by agreeing. The vindication is helpful and makes it easier to handle. Thank you Tomas." - Anahita
- "I do not think we will ever be friends. Working together with him is an experience I look forward too though." - Maximillion
- "Oh that's so sad!" - Artemisia, repeatedly, on hearing tales of the tragic past
- "He keeps a good grip on his crew whilst leaving space for initiative, did not give into excessive indulgence on Grimaldi and did waht he could to save Tempus from the demon he had roused. A good Lord captain overall. " - Azrael Schwarzekappel
- "I tease the old bugger, but ill be dammed if he doesn't keep his cool and mind on the task in the most strenuous of situations" - Cartwright
- "There are depths to Rexuz that I think others do not see. He has walked beside me to understand my path, taken time to let me understand his. This is more than I would expect from a talon of the Eagle." - Ed'wari
- "I wish I had not been surprised. I really do." - Stenberg
- "We did the right thing old friend, though I know it must have felt like shrapnel to your heart" - Cartwright
- "Sometimes I think he knows everything and understands nothing; sometimes I think he knows something I don't." - Mac
- "He must be getting nostalgic, looks a bit more like the Commissar of old" - Cartwright
- "I often forget that for all our difference we are the same." - Maximillion
- "Good for you, buddy. Better than most people get." - Stacy
- "A new journey, I see. Your most challenging yet, and not because of the death you expect it to end with. It is good to see you stepping up to it." - Missionary Stenberg
- "You have been on a longer bimble than most my friend, I can imagine that its a relief to finally have the end hoving into view" - Cartwright
- "Despite his flash and bluster, there's a sadness in him. Time and Circumstances have not been kind to him, less kind than to most, I feel." - Lord-Captain Romeles Uriel Corinthian Blair
- "He was blessed with a visitation from a Saint of the faith. I must admit I had not thought that would be a possibility for him" - Azrael Schwarzekappel
- "He asked me an interesting question: what if it were me? Very thought-provoking. But we both know it isn't." - Mac
- "Are you so blind that you cannot see how blessed you are to be standing here? Even if you have nothing else, Tomas, you have the stars." - Ambrose Cordell Tollman
- "The hardest thing is to see your crew fall before you but take comfort that he sits with the Emperor now." - Maximillion
- "It is scarce enough to convey the scope of my regrets… but I offer you the honour of hand-carving his name into the front-face of the primary altar in Arkangel's cathedral." - Stenberg
- "You know how it is Rexuz, this was always a possibility out here on the frontier, shoulder your pack and best foot forward." - Cartwright
- "I was disappointed, at first, after all the kids' stories, that he was a person. Now I'm impressed that he's the person he is." - Stacy

- "What is the phrase, 'he cleans up good'? Certainly showing his time as a militarum officer at this latest Sanguinalia gathering." - Azrael Schwarzekappel
- "For all the ribbing I have given him, he has taught me a lot. I know his time draws near, and this anticipatory grief feels far deeper than the swiftness of a battlefield loss. I guess the old bastard is having the last and largest laugh." - Cartwright
- "Let go, Lord-Captain - you grip too tightly, and it will come regardless." - Archbishop Stenberg
- "Good for him. Doesn't mean we won't miss him." - Stacy
- "A good Lord-Captain stands by their troops, but does what has to be done. With my current... situation, he has carried out the needed precautions, but allowed me to continue. I trust him with my life. Literally." Sgt. Viktor Jovanovski
- "I feel like he has come into his own just as he prepares to leave us. I could never feel that drive to martyrdom. Fighting our way out of impossible situations is what we do. Why won't he fight?" - Mac
- "Just because you know the end is near doesn't mean you need to throw yourself infront of every bullet. You only get one End, make it count Rexus." -Severina Von Den Tötten
