History
Before becoming a Warboss, Yark was just a young Nob who could not inspire proper fear in his underlings. Yark knew he had change his image to fix this, but was unsure of how to. The idea finally came to him, after the Nob was attacked by Commissar Yarrick, during a fierce battle between the Blood Axes and Imperium. Yark survived the encounter and became so inspired by Yarrick's terrifying presence, that the Nob began to model himself after the Commissar - including having his eye poked out to match Yarrick's. This was the beginning of his rise, which eventually led Yark to become a Warboss. However, Yarrick's appearance and weaponry was not the only thing Yark copied, as the Warboss taught himself to read and studied the Imperium Tactica. The consisted of information about the Astra Militarum and allowed Yark to model his Waaagh! Yark forces after the Imperial military organisation.[1]
One of his Big Bosses became so impressed by Yark's style of imitating Yarrick, that he decided to emulate an Imperial hero as well. This Big Boss became Chukoff, who imitated the appearance of the Valhallan 18th "Tundra Wolves"'s Commander, Kubrik Chenkov. Waaagh! Yark is now on the move and was last seen heading towards the strategic world of Bolta-More.[1]
