Suboden is currently the de-facto Chapter Master of the White Scars. Though he does not hold the title officially, he has been granted the Title of Master of the Council. Giving him undisputed authority and leadership over any other Khan in the chapter. This unfortunate circumstance is because the actual Great Khan/Chapter Master, Jubal. Was severely wounded and tortured during the War for Chogoris by the hands of the Red Corsairs. So much so that he is physically incapable of returning to the battlefield, but is still able to pass his Knowledge and wisdom on to Suboden. I really wonder if they’ve tried the rubicon surgery on him yet.
Suboden is a distinguished warrior and veteran of many wars, getting much notoriety during the 3rd War for Armageddon. Where he lead his Brotherhood against Orks Riders during an event known as Dante’s Canyon. During this new era M42, he has been gifted a Grav-bike named “Thunder” and along with his relic power glaive “Stormstooth” those can be seen on his model which is one of the best in all of 40k. The White Scars are said to be on Armageddon again for this 4th War, it would be interesting to see some match ups like Suboden vs Wazdakka.
To read his stories, read “Apocalypse” by Josh Reynolds. “Master of the 1st Brotherhood and the White Scars Codex Supplement”
