Commissar Yarrick was made famous for his participation in the Second and Third wars for Armageddon. Here he fought against the forces of the Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka.
He was old when the war began and was scheduled to retire on the day the Orks landed. He had had an excellent history serving with the PDF and a reputation for unswerving loyalty to the Emperor. In his youth he had learnt the Ork language from a captured raider and was an expert in the way the Ork mind worked.
The Second War for Armageddon
During the Second War for Armageddon, Yarrick had been banished to Hades Hive by their fool of a leader Overlord Herman von Strab after he ordered the planets astropaths to send a message for help. He has been described as "the greatest waste of flesh and bone born in the last five hundred years" by Princeps Prime Kurtiz Mannheim of the Iron Skulls Titan Legion.
Gradually, under von Strab's leadership, the planet fell bit by bit until the Orks reached Hades Hive. Here, Commissar Yarrick commanded the forces to fight like the possessed. Eventually Ghazghkull joined the attack leading his forces from the front. He tried to deplete the hive by every way he could, but Yarrick countered them all. Eventually, Hades Hive became a personal battle for the two warriors. Ghazghkull fell upon the hive, and Yarrick realised they could not hold their position. In a series of daring shuttle runs, the remaining forces managed to escape. In the retreat Yarrick was almost killed, but his Iron Will allowed him to survive.
The Third War for Armageddon
The Third War for Armageddon would prove to be a much harder battle. Yarrick arrived back on the planet two weeks before the invasion began. He agreed to take over total control of all forces on the planet and his first order was to send all remaining Imperial aircraft to destroy as many of the Orks as possible before they could touch the ground. Eventually, the Orks landed their Roks, providing them with prebuilt fortresses. Yarrick personally led the assault on one of these with a force of Cadian Shock Troopers. Eventually the Orks were pushed out of the Armageddon system, and Yarrick embarked on a crusade with the support of the Black Templars, to find and crush Ghazghkull for the last time.
Yarrick is reknown for his Iron Will, and this is represented by the ability to shrug off wounds and return to battle, even after he should be dead. He has a trademark item, the battle klaw powerful enough to kill with one swipe. He also has a special forcefield which shrugs off almost all attacks. Finally, his bionic eye has a laser built in in case of emergencies.
