====Flag Officers==== Aboard each Strike Cruiser of the Star Kraken there are several notable officers, men of rank whom lead the company - and the charge - in times of peace and war. These ''Flag Officers'' are analogous to other Codex adherent battle brothers, but due to the nature of the Kraken fleet and the Deep itself, each has a rich and varied responsibility when compared to their more terrestrial bound peers. =====Commodore (Chapter Master)===== =====Brother-Captain===== =====Librarian===== Star Kraken Librarians are both battle psykers and mystics, who act as teachers and leaders. Like in any other Chapter where Librarians are employed, when the marines discover one of their recruits have psychic powers, then they are send off to the Librarium. The recruit must not only survive the same training regime where only the fittest survive to become Astartes, but also survive the gruelling training that will make the recruit into a Acolytum. Star Kraken Librarian training, however, is far more difficult than usual. While in other Chapters only a handful survive to become Librarians, it is not uncommon for all the recruits to not survive the training. Those who do survive, on the other hand, could be considered the deadliest members of the Chapter. Wielding mostly their runic force staves , their powers kept in check by psychic hoods, and their armor annointed with purity seals to keep the fangs of the warp at bay. On the battlefield, the Librarians use a form of cryokinesis to freeze enemies or create horrific psychic images, which can turn even the strongest of will into drooling madmen. Off the battlefield, the Librarians teach the recruits alongside the Chaplains. While the spiritual leaders teach them Chapter traditions and beliefs, the Librarians teach them history and tell about legends, mostly of their Primarch, Corax. =====Techmarine===== =====Chaplain===== The Chaplains of the Star Krakens are the Spiritual Leaders of the Chapter. They guide their brothers on the battlefield and inspire them to greater acts of heroism. Armed with the Crozius Arcanum, they might also take a holy power blade into battle. Not a bolt pistol, nor any other gun. Just a power weapon is sufficient. On the battlefield, Star Kraken Chaplains are the ones who draw first blood and lead their brothers to victory. Preaching the word of the Emperor and clashing with the Chapter's enemies, they are true warrior priests. Like the chapter's Apothecaries, the Chaplains are very protective of their brothers and will jump into a horde of Grendel to save them or to retrieve their bodies. =====Apothecary===== Star Kraken Apothecaries are a stout group of specialists among the chapter. Tasked with aiding their brethren with their medical skills and wisdom, these Space Marines are welcome in any group. Of course, they are Space Marines first and foremost, meaning that they are as good in dealing the same horrid injuries they usually heal. One particular characteristic of theirs is that they tend to be very protective of their brethren. When a battle brother gets critically injured, then the Apothecary is possessed of a tranquil fury and will even slaughter his way directly to aid a wounded brother. The Apothecaries of the Star Krakens use various substances and materials found in the Deep in their medical procedures. Usually Apothecaries are part of a Command/Librarium/Reclusiarch Squad, but with the chapter understrength, the apothecaries have spread themselves amongst the squads, to keep losses to a minimum, and preserve the chapter geneseed. In conjunction with the techmarines, they have issued many bionics to the chapter, and specially designed helms with many optics to enhance vision and awareness, and to better preserve the craniums of their brothers, thus increasing their battle-proffeciency greatly
