Marneus Calgar
Marneus Augustus Calgar is a character from the fictional Warhammer 40k universe. Marneus Calgar is the current Chapter Master of the Ultramarines Chapter of Space Marines, and titled Lord Macragge. Following a skirmish against the Tyranid Hive Fleet Perseus in 976.M41, Calgar lost all four limbs as well as large areas of body tissue and his left eye. Now fitted with bionic replacements, he is more machine than man.
Calgar's exploits have earned him renown throughout the human Imperium. The massive invasion of the extragalactic aliens known as Tyranids battered itself against the Ultramarine homeworld. Although the chapter incurred grievous losses in the defense, losing its most honoured and experienced warriors, Calgar's stubborn defence and crushing defeat of the Tyranids has become the stuff of legend on the worlds of Ultramar and beyond.
His characteristic weapons are the Gauntlets of Ultramar, which were reclaimed by the Primarch Roboute Guilliman from a Chaos Champion. These gauntlets allow Calgar to bash gaping holes in enemy lines, allowing his men to achieve victory for the Imperium in a joyous slaughter of the heretic forces across the galaxy.
An unofficial nickname for Marneus is "Papa Smurf", due to other players referring to the Ultramarines as Smurfs and Calgar being their leader. The nickname has its origin in the actual miniatures' diminutive size and the fact that they are blue.
