Sergeant Ceglan Varl is a squad leader in Major Rawne's B Company of the Tanith 1st. He is one of the original Tanith foundees, and one of the Regiment's more popular and well known officers. A former Trooper, Varl is seen as a soldier's officer, much like his commanding officer, Gol Kolea, and is known for his good humour and horseplay. Varl had a cybernetic augmentic shoulder fitted following an injury on Fortis Binary. He was one of the Gereon 12.
Appearance[]
Varl is described as being fairly clean cut and handsome, roughly in his early thirties with a winning smile and wink.
Personality[]
A joker and prankster, Varl is one of the most popular members of the regiment due to his warm personality and gallows humour. He is a dog soldier by nature and one of the officers who lead by example rather than by simply ordering around others. He has a decent level or intelligence as both a squad leader and also as a con-man when it comes to betting schemes.
Despite his horseplay, Varl is portrayed as being a caring sort who can be serious when there is a call for it. He shows deep concern when Kolea risks his personal safety at Cirenholm, and takes a special interest in the welfare of the likes of Brin Milo.
Since returing from Gereon, Varl has shown a harder more buttoned down side and is highly reluctant to talk about his experiences, and has been shown to be shorter with his comrades. Despite this, he still embodies a sense of humour and brotherhood.
Early Life & Background[]
Little has been revealed about Varl's early life, aside from the fact that he originated from Tanith Magna and served as a member of it's militia before joining the founding.
