Lex Cardinale was a Private first class of the 81st Phantine Skyborne regiment, who served under Lieutenant Goseph Kersherin.[1a]
Biography
During the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, Cardinale was among those Phantine who took part in the liberation of their own homeworld from the forces of the Blood Pact. Just prior to the invasion of Ouranberg, Kersherin, Cardinale, Unterrio and Babbist were selected to accompany sixteen Guardsmen of the Tanith First and Only regiment as part of Operation Larisel.[1a] He was assigned as the Specialist for team Larisel 3, led by Sergeant Adare.[1b][1c]
Larisel 3 managed to make their way into Ouranberg via the city's vent system and tried to blend in with a crowd of slave workers.[1c][1d] However, Troopers Milo and Nessa were separated from the rest of the team and, while looking for them, Cardinale was struck by a Blood Pact slaver's electro-lash. This caused him to drop the aquila pendant that he had been carrying on him. When the slavers found the pendant, they raised the alarm and unleashed cyber-mastiffs to track down its owner. The dogs found and mauled Cardinale and Adare and Doyl were forced to break cover and fire on the Blood Pact to save him. Ultimately, Doyl and Adare were cut down by loxatl mercenaries as they tried to flee but, amazingly, Cardinale survived. He was instead captured and tortured by the leader of the Blood Pact's forces in Ouranberg, Sagittar Slaith.[1d]
