Once a respected chaplain of Blood Ravens. Dominic de Guzman swore his allegiance to Word Bearer's chaos marines, after his brother - Christobal de Guzman (a high ranking radical member of Holy Inquisition) was accused of practising chaos magic and consorting with warp daemons. Christobal was found guilty by the inquisition court led by Inquisitor lord Torquemada Coteaz.
Dominic left immediately his chapter to save his brother, but the only thing, that he had a chance to save from the pyre was burned Christobal's skull. Dominic then swore vengence to Inquisitor Torquemada and the False Emperror for his brother's death. He took the skull and travelled to the Eye of Terror to find a way to ressurect his brother. There - on the world of Sicarus he met half-man-half daemon Lorgar. Lorgar was a primarch of Word Bearers and he promissed Dominic to show him a way to bring his brother back to life if he joins his legion.
Dominic then desecrated his purity seals, inserted Christobal's skull into center of his crozius and served a dark ritual to Chaos Gods. Soon he became the most feared Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers bringing death to servants of the False Emperror in his quest to avenge his brother and find and kill Inquisitor Torquemada.
A word spreads, that during battles Domnic's brother Christobal manifests himself as a Gigantic bloodthirsty daemon, tearing Dominic's opponents to pieces.

Jarulek 09-Jun-08 #261485		Rating: 10 One of the best -if not the best- Dark Apostle I've seen so far. It took me some time to realise that it's just the SM jumppack chaplain with a different crozius head and some horns attached to his helmet. Plus it has a real wicked base. Which horns did you use btw? It's not CSM, is it?

Frobenius 09-Sep-06 #194576		Rating: 10 Awesome fluff. This is what makes a game of 40k extraordinary! The model itself is 9, but I give you +1 for the fluff. 9+1 = 10. And you deserve it. Great stuff. - Frobenius
