Born to the noble Lo Bannick House on [[Paragon VI]], after he killed his cousin in a duel he joined the Guard to save the family disgrace. He was part of the Guard's forces sent to fight the [[Ork]]s of [[Waaagh! Gratzdakka]], which had [[Kalidar War|invaded]] the [[Kalidar System]]. He was assigned to the 3rd Company of the [[42nd Paragon Tank Regiment]].{{Fn|1a}}
Initially [[Tank Commander|commanding]] the [[Leman Russ Battle Tank]] ''[[Indomitable Fury]]'', his tank was destroyed on [[Kalidar IV]] in battle with Ork forces on the [[Kostoval Flats]] but in the process held off the greenskin forces long enough for Guard forces to withdraw. For this bravery was promoted and made Third Gunner of the [[Baneblade]] ''[[Mars Triumphant]]''.{{Fn|1b1c}}
During the ensuing battles on Kalidar IV, ''Mars Triumphant'' was destroyed but only after taking a [[Gargant]] with it. For this, he was promoted and given command of a new Baneblade, ''[[Cortein's Honour]]''.{{Fn|1c1d}}
