Admiral Spire is the main protagonist of Battlefleet Gothic: Armada, as well as the leader of the Imperial faction in Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2.

Bio[edit | edit source]

And up-and-coming Captain of the Imperial Navy, Spire had to climb the career ladder in hardcore mode because he came from a home world that had rebelled against the Imperium of Man. When he, in fact, provided his superiors with crucial information about the brewing Twelfth Black Crusade, Spire had to undergo a friendly little chat with the Inquisition to make sure he wasn't pulling their leg. But Spire persevered, and his efforts earned him the rank of Admiral.

He became one of the most lauded hero of the ensuring Gothic War, in which he defended the eponymous Gothic Sector from recurring attacks by Chaos, Orkz, and Eldar fleets. Namely by killing them, killing them, or reluctantly making friends with them. Following the apocalyptic Battle of Schindlegeist, Spire's fleet ended up stranded in the warp for a couple of centuries or so, but he popped up again just in time for the Thirteenth Black Crusade.

In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]

Spire and his battleship were requisitioned as the personal taxi of Inquisitor Jaq Draco during his investigation of 8chanmania XCIII. Not so much because Draco had a taste for personal transport, but because Spire's battleship came stocked with an arsenal of Exterminatus warheads. The latter came in useful when Draco, thoroughly spooked by Default-Chan in her disguise as a bedsheet ghost, hastily teleported back onto Spire's backship and ordered the immediate destruction of the mania and Holy Terra itself.
