Rumours

Is the Borovich Wheelman whenever they need a job done.

Occasionally sets things on fire when stressed.

The kitchen knife he carries with him is actually an ancient Chernobog artefact of unknown power. It also cuts up corpse starch bricks real nice.

No one has ever seen his Sanctioning brand outside of the Family.

Quotes

• "Bright... so very bright. Can also handle his drink and himself." - Ed'wari

• "It takes a pilot to really understand what it is to be a good one. This man can fly a lander for fucking sure. I've watched him: it's artistry, pure and simple." - Victrix
• "I remember when he was a boy, we found him in scavenging in the lowest levels of the hive you can get to without just dropping dead from proximity to the old reactors. Bald, shivering and sick with Rads. No one could have survived down there alone. But he did. I have him a rebreather and he has never left my side. I wonder if it would be kinder leaving him there." - Arkady Borovich
• "Smart and quick. Listens and watches more than he talks. Nice and warm and generous. More than I would expect, thinking of where we came from. He is brave. I look forward to fighting beside him... And he has nice hair." - Skyfall
• "If he wanted, he could easily run own family on Chernobog. He would do well. Still a little gopnik at heart though" - Magos Karchev

• "A heart as warm as the fires he kills with. It give me hope there is a future." - Maximillion
• "Appears to be solidly competent, cant say much more about them as they have not come under my scalpel long enough for casual chit chat " - Oberarzt Azrael Schwarzekappel
• "Most Imperials talk incessantly, and do little but posture. Rusev knows the value of action, and acts as he will. I admire that, even if some of his actions are ill-advised." - Thunder
• "Watching him with that knife reminds me of a quote from Lord General Dubarry "I don't know what they do to the enemy, but they sure as hell scare me." he's a killing cove if I ever saw one - Cartwright
