Arye Babbist was a Private first class of the 81st Phantine Skyborne regiment, who served under Lieutenant Goseph Kersherin.[1a]
During the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, Babbist 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, Babbist, Unterrio and Cardinale 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 4, led by Scout-Sergeant Mkoll.[1b][1c]
Unfortunately, during the approach to Ouranberg, Larisel 4's Marauder was shot down by the city's air defences with all hands lost[1b][1c] (save Mkoll, who managed to get to safety using his grav-chute).[1d]
