'''Solomon Demeter''' was the [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] of the 2nd Company of the [[Emperor's Children]] [[Space Marine Legion]]. Demeter was somewhat atypical for an officer of the Emperor's Children, being possessed of a steak of individualism and recklessness that made him stand out from his peers. During the dark days of the corruption of the legion, his individual nature, along with a twist of fortune, led to him becoming virtually the only senior officer of the legion not to succumb to the temptations of [[Slaanesh]].== History ==The very image of a typical Space Marinein appearance, Demeter's dark hair was shorn close to his scalp and his skin was tanned from the light of the several suns he had fought under. He was expressionate, with heavily animated features well-spaced across his face.
Confident in his own abilities and somewhat self-reliant, Solomon heavily customised his weapons until they met his satisfaction; every surface and working part of his [[Bolter]] was hand-finished, giving it a slightly better rate of fire than standard issue weapons and his [[chainsword]] had been altered to have a longer grip and blade, allowing it to be used as a two-handed weapon. The hilt was extensively crafted to resemble an eagle. He regularly checked and re-checked his equipment before battle, honouring his battle-gear with a fervour he sometimes wondered if bordered on the superstitious.
