[[Imagefile:Strix.jpg|thumb|right|200px|{{PAGENAME}}{{Fn|1}}]]'''Freikstorn Strix''' is a [[Necromunda (Planet)|Necromundan]] [[Bounty Hunterbounty hunter]] who is an exile of [[House Van Saar]], where he was once a '''Clan an [[Archetekarcheotek]]'''.{{Fn|1}}
==Biography==
By his Househouse's standards, Strix is ancient at the age of 47, but he has only achieved this by converting his [[survival suit|bodysuit]] into an armoured life-support cradle, and also by replacing his limbs with [[Imperial bionics|powerful cybernetics]], although he does not possess any of the [[archaeo-cyberteknika]] his former house is known for and that most archeoteks have at least some implants of. He created many of his body modifications by mixing Van Saar's [[STC]] technologies with common [[Imperial]] tech, but Strix must now harvest parts from his enemies in order to keep himself alive. This has led the Bounty Hunter bounty hunter to work with [[Underhive]] [[gang]]s, if there is the promise of technology or a hefty score of creds.{{Fn|1}}
In combat , Strix is a deadly enemy, as he wields a "pneumatic-claw gun " (a harpoon launcher) and his bodysuit includes a jet pack he calls the '''S.H.O.C.K. (Strixian Harness and Ornithoptical Combat Kit) wing''', which allows the Bounty Hunter bounty hunter to "soar " across the battlefield, although they don't allow true flight as [[yeld wings]] do. Perhaps the most deadly weapon he wields, though, is the fear Strix creates in his foes. Many of them believe the Bounty Hunter bounty hunter is not even [[Humanhuman]] at all, but instead a mechanical horror that [[Hive Primus]]' s [[Noble Housesnoble houses]] have unleashed upon the Underhive for their own dark amusement.{{Fn|1}}
