The Garantine is the cutest Eversor.

    The Garantine greedily gathered armfuls of hardware, taking bandoliers of melta-grenades, a wickedly barbed neuro-gauntlet and the rig for a sentinel array. With another guttural laugh, he snagged a heavy, blunt-ended slaughterer’s sword and placed it under his arm. ‘I’ll be in my bunk’ he sniggered, and wandered away under his burden.

     Iota watched the Eversor go. ‘Look at him. He’s almost… happy.’
