K'ar Hurtan is a battle brother of the Salamanders 2nd company, 1st tactical squad. Whilst all Salamanders are famed for their bravery and selflessness, K'ar Hurtan has become especially renowned amongst his brothers for his exceptional resilience in the face of certain death. Honourably known as "The Unyielding" by his close comrades, and "The Stubborn" by his critics, K'ar has earned himself both his fair share of glory and scorn. During The Purging of the Ymgarl moons, K'ar was one of the first to make planetfall. A new strain of Ymgarl genestealers was discovered and K'ar's squad was the first to be bloodied. The 1st squad fought well, but the sheer numbers of the xenos threat were grossly underestimated. After 1st tactical squad sergeant Tur'en Vishok fell, it was K'ar who commanded his squad and two others to hold the position. The price of this decision saw all but K'ar and one remaining battle brother of the 1st squad remain. The reward, a vital position within the northern jungle established and a powerful brood lord lay slain by K'ar's combat knife. K'ar remained for the rest of the campaign, fighting with tenacity and seeking vengeance for his fallen brothers. K'ar was mostly commended by his brothers for his actions yet some agreed his unwillingness to retreat cost the lives of good astartes who would have surely lived to fight again otherwise. K'ar has fought on many campaigns since, his proficiency with a combat knife and bolt pistol are bested by few others within his legion. Uncommonly he refuses a flamer, and instead wields his blade and bolt pistol with extreme lethality at close range. Many the xenos, demon and heretic have fallen under K'ar's terrible wrath. During the Badab War, K'ar was again one of the first on the front line. Heretic astartes fell in droves from K'ar's unrelenting assaults, earning him an impressive kill tally within his first few hours of planetfall. K'ar became an inspiring force throughout the remainder of the war to his brothers, but it was well known that whenever one accompanied K'ar, they would be joining him wherever the fighting was the thickest and most deadly. K'ar's bullheadedness has seen him broken and scarred, his face a picture of the grim realities of war. Whilst K'ar's loyalty is unshakeable, his extreme aggression has led him and his brothers into battles that only the toughest few survive. Many Salamanders have applauded K'ar's heroism, yet just as many know that fighting alongside him is a certain deathwish. It is unlikely that K'ar Hurtan will ever rise to be anything more than a dedicated battle brother of the 2nd company. Command is not a position that K'ar can be entrusted with. Nevertheless, K’ar Hurtan will continue to be a figure of inspiration and controversy within the legion, and certain to deliver Vulkan's fury to his enemies.
