Name: Xylius Ferius

Rank: VII Legion, 289th Expeditionary Fleet, 2nd Chapter, 3rd Battalion, 6th company, Iron Squad Veteran Legionaire

Wargear: Bolter-Grenade Launcher combi weapon, Volkite Caliver, MKIV Power Armor, Twin Power Sword, 2 frag, 2 melta and 1 smoke grenade.

Legion: Imperial Fists

History: One of the few original legionaires from terra, who served with the emperor and saw the man twice. When Dorn came in he and his fellow vets were put to the test, on the days of the great crusades peak he once volunteered to be one of the legions breacher squads before being transferred on the seeker squad of the legion. Forgoes a pistol weaponry for his volkite weapon from his breacher days and known to be a proficient dual wielder himself. I feel like his equipment is a bit over the top. To have twin powerswords, a volkite Caliver, and a combi-bolter grenade launcher (which is itself not a thing I have heard in the lore) is unheard of in the lore. Its too many weapons for one Astartes during a time when Astartes were soldiers of the line rather than the revered warriors they are in 40k where they might get away with such an armament.

I would suggest a single firearm, with a sidesword, and maybe a pistol if you are going for a tactical marine. If you want a focussed assault marine then perhaps a powersword and plasma pistol. But that multitude of weapons is a bit much in my opinion. It just wouldn't be feasible to carry all those weapons without hinderence.
