Editing Black Dragons (section)

==Daily routine==
'''3:00 - Awakening:''' The Black Dragons wake up from their sleep and crawl out of their beds, which they refer to as 'hoards'. Chapter serfs claim that they are made out of gold coins and gems.

'''4:00 - Bone Sharpening:''' All marines who have been 'cursed' with bone growths spend the next hour sharpening and coating them in adamantine. Those who either haven't developed or don't have them inspect their wargear (primarily bolters) for any flaws.

'''5:00 - Morning Prayer:''' The Black Dragons descend into the chapel and begin their prayers to the Emperor. The phrase 'Please Curse the Emperor's servants.' has been outlawed after some unpleasant meetings with the Inquisition. Marines wishing for their curses to be removed are generally ostracized. Marines who refer to themselves as 'scalies' or wish to become an actual lizard during their prayers are shot out of an airlock.

'''6:00 - Morning Firing Rites:''' Marines go to the firing range and begin firing at their targets. Most marines have trouble hitting the targets due to their bone growths messing up their grip on their bolters. Those who don’t have bone growths have no such problems, but are ostracized by their brothers.

'''6:30 - Morning Sparring Practice:''' Though sparring practice doesn't officially start until 7:00 most marines get tired of not being able to hit and so they throw their weapons down and charge into the targets. Then they get into wrist blade fights and lock horns in a rather chaotic brawl. Marines who don't join in the fighting are generally given popcorn by chapter serfs.

'''9:00 - Clean Up:''' Most marines snap out of their fighting and, rather embarrassedly, clean up the damage they caused with their adamantine claws and blades for the serfs. Those marines who didn't join the previous fighting are then allowed to properly do sparring practice.

'''12:00 - Midday Meal:''' Chapter serfs prepare a meal of mostly raw animals captured during previous planetary landings. Most marines are expected to cut the food with their claws then eat them raw. Marines without bone blades are to simply make do with chain swords and combat knives.

'''13:00 - Free Time:''' The Black Dragons begin their daily hour of free time. Most marines spend it sharpening their claws or polishing their 'scales'. Some marines try blacksmithing to get in touch with their Salamander roots. Their horns or claws often get in the way so most give it up after the first try. Though some don’t

'''14:00 - Zombie Killing:''' The Black Dragons pull up to the nearest planet infected with chaos zombies and kill as many of them as they can get. The one who kills the most gets a free bag of thrones to add to their hoard.

'''15:30 - Tending to the Dragon Claws:''' Dragon Claws whose curses became too much to bear and went insane are given food and water for the day.

'''16:00 - Evening Firing Practice:''' Marines are once again sent to the firing range. This time the targets are much bigger and easier to hit to prevent another brawl.

'''17:00 - Evening Meal:''' The Black Dragons return to the mess hall for more food. Marines are fed nothing but pure meat, this time cooked and pre-cut, for dinner. Most marines express distaste for not being able to cut it themselves.

'''18:00 - Apothecary Visit:''' Every Black Dragon is herded to the Apothecary and inspected. Those who have not developed significant mutations are excluded. Neophytes are injected with a new gene-seed if they have not developed mutations yet.

'''20:00 - Evening Prayer:''' The Black Dragons begin evening prayers. Neophytes spontaneously screaming bloody murder and having bone growths emerge out of their head are a common occurrence.

'''21:00 - Returning to the Hoard:''' Marines return to their piles of coins and gems and go to sleep for the night.
