Inhabitants of Zone 7 and 9"The Slums"

Gangers

Theophilos - Leader of the Penitent ones DEAD
Theophilos and his silent right hand Theophobos arrived in Dirtside 5 years ago, and founded The Penitent Ones. In his territory Theophilos shields the poor and downtrodden, running soup kitchens and finding work in Cawdor weapon shops, that they might better know His blessing.

Theophilo's was surrounded by Poxwalkers in the escape from Zone 7, and killed by Theophobos. However Theophilos rose from the dead and, as a Poxwalker killed Theophobos in turn
Nicephorus the bringer of victory (Penitent Ones)DEAD 

Nicephorus bears the gang’s most sacred icon (a vox array from an Leman Russ assembly line). 

Nicephorus is a focal point in the chapel and on the battlefield.

Ambrosius (Penitent Ones) 
DEAD
A crack shot from the western portion of Plate 2, Ambrosius spends most of his time on patrol or up in his sniper nest. Such dedication is commendable but Theophilos is wary. All that time alone 
gives a man time to think, first step on the path to heresy.

The Turkos Brothers (Penitent Ones)
DEAD
Three new arrivals to the gang following their uncle Vardan, reckless but with good reason. After consulting the Emperor’s Tarot the brothers were told that two would become great leaders and one would die in the attempt.






Nashoba Phyrr Cat (Chief of the "Seven Skinners" Gang) MISSING

Nashoba lived a quiet life on the eastern outskirts of Dirtside, his people moving along the waters of the Dirtside Channel near the city. Both the water is believed by Dirtsiders to be toxic and the land devoid of sustenance by the Yeh-Vree like Nashoba were adept at surviving. Like most Yeh-Vree, Nashoba's people ventured into the city undetected, taking what supplies they needed. Unbeknown to Nashoba or his people the latest supply run contained supplies from the contaminated Zone 7 and most his family were lost to Warp Plague, the surviving members of the tribe blaming the inhabitants of the slums they seek revenge.



Ahote dead rat (Shaman - The Seven Skinners DEAD)

Ahote Dead Rat was raised alongside Nashoba, and became the village Shaman's young apprentice. From a young age he had an aptitude for spirit talking, and speaking to the planet or "Too'Wah" regularly, growing sustenance from the barren world around them with his powers. When Warp Plague took the tribe, Ahote did all he could, despite being skilled at spirit healing, his powers only exacerbated the issue. It confirmed the worst for Skinners; the sickness the invaders had brought could not be healed by the planet, more that they were a plague that needed to be cut from Too'Wah.


Ahote was killed fighting the Penitent Ones. They attacked his back with fire and fury, he dashed forward to shoot down those advance, taking down 2 Cawdor, however a flurry of gun-fire brought him down, While Ahote bled on the ground Theophilos, recognising Ahote as a "witch", executed the spirit healer.

Taheton Spirit Talker (Totem Warriors - Seven Skinners DEAD)
Taheton was a known joker in his tribe before the Warp Plague. Along with Ahote he trained with the Shaman, who died along with all the others. More than anyone else Taheton took this particularly hard, changing from a cheerful, gregarious man, to a hate filled silent one. He swore the oath of a Totem Warrior, carving the names of his family into his flesh he swore death of vengeance. 
The Seven Skinners treat Taheton with awe and fear, more than any other he has walked down a darker path, and become stronger for it. His ferocity though knows no bounds. 

Taheton was killed in the same battle as Ahote dead rat by the same man Theophilos. Having heard the shouts of battle, Taheton used the Crawlspaces to get behind enemy lines, springing into action along with the young Brave "Little Crocolid". Such was his ferocity that he cut down the Nicephorus of the Penitent Ones in a single strike of his Spirit Totem Club, eldritch fires playing about it's surface and terrifying the Cawdor into fleeing. However his dependence of War Fungus would be his undoing, having taken a toxic dose he collapsed into convulsions. Upon seeing the Penitent Ones holy relic dropped to the ground Theolphilos flew into a rage and crushed the skull of Taheton.
 Badskin Bob (Badskin - Seven Skinners)

"Badskin" Bob had gained a reputation throughout the slums as an excellent guide and capable sharpshooter, earning his pay both along the roads and around the slums.

Bob, having gained a taste for the invaders lifestyle tended to burn through his creds in gambling dens, brothels and drinking holes, being chased out of each settlement once he had outstayed his welcome. Despite his carefree facade, Bob was always haunted by what he saw, and hated himself for his own corruption at the hands of the invaders. Bob was in fact the youngest Brave of the original Skinners gang, and avoided the slaughter which ended the first gangs rampage all those years ago. When he spotted the warband of the Seven Skinners. Introducing himself, he managed to ingratiate himself with the warband and even convince them to take on the mantle of the Skinners, regaling them with tales of his glory days that he in fact saw little part in.
