Severus Agemman is Brother-Captain of the Ultramarines First Company. He used to be Captain of the Second Company before Sicarius, who back then was just a Veteran SergeantCaptain Of The Fifth Company. He was promoted to Captain of the First Company after the last one, Captain Saul Invictus, died in the First Tyrannic War. For a time he was literally Captain of nothing since the First Company got nom'd along with the Captain he replaced, and has been busying himself with rebuilding it. But not only that, Chaplain Cassius has also been guiding his very own unit of Veterans in his own direction by raising the Tyrannic War Veterans, which took many of the relics from the fallen First Company with them, all of this means that Agemman's influence has been significantly reduced. The Tyrannic War Veterans are PART of Agemman's First Company.
He isn't mentioned much in the fluff, beyond a few passing mentions on how he's been getting overshadowed a lot by Sicarius and that he's Calgar's closest and most trusted friend and right-hand man. Imagine having your second in command rise to your position(That never happened. When Agemman was 2nd Captain, Sicarius was 5th Captain) Imagine the guy who was nominally your equal, but functionally lower ranked than you, getting promoted to your former position and then do everything you ever did a hundred times better then you ever didwatching him be a complete gloryhound, obsessed with getting accolades and being in the spotlight, and no one ever shutting the fuck up about it. Thats probably what its like to be Agemman. As Captain of the First Company, Agemman is nominally Marneus Calgar's appointed heir to the rank of Chapter Master, but in spite of this, however much of the Chapter believes it will be Sicarius who replaces Calgar when he dies, and not Agemman, which people assume probably pisses him off. This isn't just idle chatter as the possibility of Sicarius being chosen over him is actually stated to be a possibility, and it's mentioned in one of the short stories that Varro Tigurius has advised Calgar that ever since the Bloodborn invasion he's been less than reliable and openly suggested that he be replaced as First Captain, either by Sicarus or Uriel Ventris(if that fuckwit, Ventris, gets promoted to 1st Captain, Graham McNeill needs to be dropped off a tall cliff).
In all honesty, getting outdone isn't his fault, since he's a regular character trying to compete with one of the beast's magical snowflakes. Whether he's getting outdone or not is pure speculation. The only thing that's clear is he doesn't give a fuck about glory or receiving personal recognition for all of the stuff he does.
He has two canon models. The old Space Marine Terminator Captain, and the new one in the Strike Force Ultra box.
