'''Ivanus Enkomi''' is the current [[Reclusiarch]] of the [[Minotaurs]].
=History=
The gaunt, brooding '''Ivanus Enkomi''', [[Reclusiarch]] [[Chaplain]] of the [[Minotaurs]] was the eyes and voice of his [[Chapter]] at the Loyalist councils of war during the [[Badab War|Badab conflict]]. Althought the Minotaurs played a key part in the war, they remained largely aloof and distant from their allies as was the Chapter's wont, letting their blood reputation and brutal victories speak for them. Enkomi was judged by many to be a paradox, at once a natural observer whose stern gaze missed little and whose crimson-tattooed face and red-irised eyes spoke of an origin on some distant and feral world, but whose voice, although rarely employed, betrayed extraordinary intelligence and a capacity for fiery oratory that rivaled the greatest demagogues of the [[Ecclesiarchy]] in potency and skill.
Chaplain Enkomi was also a skilled tactical commander as befitted one of his rank and title who led his forces from the front in battle, exhorting them to ever greater heights of hatred and destruction against the God-Emperor's foes. In addition to his role as emissary between his chapter and the Loyalist high command, Chaplain Enkomi was at the forefront of the Minotaurs' attack in several key battles of the Badab War. Most notably he led a victorious boarding assault against the [[Lamenters|Lamenters']] [[strike cruiser]] Dawn Reaper during the cataclysmic Battle of Optera, and commanding his Chapter's forces during the attack on Shaprias in the [[Maelstrom]] which foiled the [[Lufgt Huron|Tyrant's]] dark machinations on that world and further uncovered the extent of the [[Astral Claws|Astral Claws']] sins and blasphemies.<sup>1a</sup>
=Wargear=Enkomi is armed with the Chaplain's badge of office, the [[Crozius Arcanum]], as well as a [[Power Fist]] and an [[Auxiliary Grenade Launcher]]. In addition to his [[Rosarious]] and [[Power Armor]], he also utilizes a [[Jump Pack]]. Due to amount of boarding actions which took place during the Badab War, Enkomi sometimes trades his power armor and jump pack for a suit of Void Hardened Power Armor.
