Ah hell nah, who let this rat onboard. Someone shoot him! Hell, I’ll shoot him, let me have some ammo! At least get some of the ogryns over to crush him! There’s no way he should be on the ship, what stupid reason did the techpriest make up for this? is he her pet? this place is just letting everyone in now… ---

Just makes it seem far more likely if not outright confirms he is someone working for Grendyl. They really removed the only “compelling” part of his character, which was the mystery of who is he working for. ---

Huh, I must have missed the development where he proved himself trustworthy. Last I recall, even after the steel retrieval, the higher-ups were still cautioning us against his general shadiness. ---

yeah this one makes no sense since he’s actually in a mission. the flight crew make sense being here despite their in mission use but I thought he was doing some intel thing. kinda hard to gather when you’re standing next to hadron’s workshop. they should have utilized him on missions with water cartel or enforcers, even just seeing him in the mission going ‘ah this is interesting’ and triggering some new dialogues with the rejects/overseers like he’s found something would be good enough until there’s another mission incorporating him. ---

From what I can gather he’s a trustee of Inquisitor Grendyl and only answers to him. At one point he says to Rannick that he can’t give him certain information because Rannick doesn’t have the clearance. Swagger probably had some credentials provided by Grendyl so that he could be on board of the Mourningstar. ---

necro but I guess relevant since now swagger is also hiding out in the deadsider sanctuaries. seems like brunt really should have been used there, how is swagger in 3 places at once? or is it part of his mystery. ---

nah I forgot the section this is under, topics don’t auto close here for logging interesting not exactly confined to X update window discussion. and it begs the question now of how Swagger is everywhere. or is it a hidden 5th model of servitor Hadron is making? a ‘swaggitor’ unit? she definitely has the plausible deniability from how much she shades and hates him outwardly… ---

> [@MarxistDictator](#): > > the question now of how Swagger is everywhere **This is more an idea, than a theory:** What if Swagger is not 1 person? What if they are like 5 agents emulating to be 1 person? “Swagger is everywhere”. Like a special commando. The man you can’t kill. A shadow of many bodies, not only 1. A commando constantly harassing enemies of the Imperium.
