Blood Ravens, hear me!I am Araghast the Pillager! - Araghast to the Blood Ravens
Araghast the Pillager, Lord Araghast or simply Araghast, was the Chaos Lord (Or more specifically, a Chaos Terminator Lord) leading a Black Legion War-band on Aurelia. Arrogant, bloodthirsty, manly, awesome and very boastful and prone to taunt. Feared far and wide for his terrible savagery, and among the greatest warriors of the Black Legion.
Chaos Rising
He invades Aurelia. Inciting rebellions and incursions and sending out various strike forces to attack Imperial worlds on Aurelia. On one of the missions,he is seen, along with Eliphas, watching as the blood ravens escape. Araghast states that he allowed them to escape because killing them will now will lose the value of the traitor within their ranks (A rather rare and sneaky feat for one who serves A Gigantic Bloodthirsty Maniac who has a fetish for Skulls). He later challenges the Blood Ravens to a battle (Which he soon learns is a mistake he will not live to learn from). Nearing death, he calls for Eliphas to open a portal. But Eliphas, being the treasonous, backstabbing, deceptive, opportunist and cowardly dog that he is, leaves him to his fate. He still manages to wound the Blood Ravens rather nicely. Slaughtering many of their followers, destroying their worlds as they did nothing, and managed to put up a much better fight than the Tyranid Hive Tyrant Alpha at the end of the first game, at least.
About Araghast
He died too fucking early in the franchise, THIS IS WHAT WE KNOW OF HIM. Instead he got succeeded by some asshated failure of a dark apostle who has abandoned and punished by HIS OWN LEGION and became an Aspirant of another, now living out the rest of his existance as 40K's second Team Rocket equivalent. BRING BACK ARAGHAST!!!
He is an Exalted Champion of Khorne (Just like Carron and Crull. However, unlike them,. he's not JUST a raging maniac, he's a raging maniac who's feared and respected for his phenomenal fighting ability. Something Khorne expects unconditionally from his Champions.), and like all devotees and servants of Khorne, he's a bloodthirsty, daemonic, super-strong maniac of tremendous fighting skill. As stated above, he is very boastful and among his many exploits is the ravaging of a thousand worlds (Which is totally badass. Again, as is stated above, he is prone to excessive taunting. He constantly mocks the Blood Ravens by calling them "Lowly Lick-Spittles", "Dead and Useless as the Empra",and insulted them further by calling them "Brothers", a fad that seems to be growing amongst Chaos Space Marines since Eliphas, it seems. He seems to treat Eliphas quite well. Though like all Chaos Lords,he still treats him (rightly)as a lowly, defenseless, dependent, lickspittle coward. Which Eliphas is. Considering that he was capable of reversing the judgement of a Daemon Prince and returning Eliphas to the corporeal plane speaks a great deal of Araghast's power.
Apart from his personality, he's also very powerful. And to prove this point, heres something that will make it perfectly clear: HE'S WEARING FUCKING TERMINATOR ARMOR!!!.
Trivia
- Many fans,at first, thought him as Eliphas, as he is voiced by
Paul DobsonFred Tatasciore, who did an impersonation of Paul Dobson. (Who was the original voice of Eliphas during Dark Crusade). In skirmish mode, he is voiced by Steve Blum (That guy who does Cyrus' sexy voice) and he does a FUCKAWESOME job of it!! - Of all the other previous Chaos Lords (Bale, Crull, Carron) he is equal to Eliphas' badassery, nay, he surpasses it. The only thing negative about him is his habit of making fatal mistakes. Like challenging the Force Commander and his squad which resulted in getting his ass whooped. Another is trusting Eliphas to oversee the teleportations which resulted in Eliphas betraying him. Despite this, he actually put up a pretty good fight.
