He's still around. Don't pretend that he's not a perpetual.

Only the official story told by the Imperium. The Guard still knows the truth,

>>51891973
I liked it better when he was just a lowly guardsman holding the line against a being that could crush him with zero effort.

Praise Saint Ollanius Pious!

I liked it better when he was a Terminator.

So did anyone screen cap the last thread? Specifially the wonderful tale some phoneposting pleb was able to weave.

>>51891571
Wouldn't he have been an Imperial Army Soldier at that point, since the Guard came after?

>>51895527
I hope someone did, otherwise I can go back and do it. That thing was awesome

I hope writefriend follows us here.

That's what he was, even if he's a perpetual. Perpetuals just don't die permanently. (Like the Emperor, or Vulcan.) They still feel pain, and in some cases, that makes everything worse for them, because they don't have the liberty of actually dying from shock or whatever. They have to actually experience all of the pain of being killed and mutilated.

I'm also pretty sure that he's /always/ had that cross around his neck.

I don't like that, so I'm gonna choose not to count it as canon. It's stupid. The whole point of ollanius is that he's just a regular dude.

holy shit
