Hektor Heresy Chaos Forces

Even before the Emperor graced ancient Terra with his steps, the maelstrom had corrupted men's minds to feel the taint of the dark pantheon.The following is a list of the traitor forces, excluding Space marines, that exist the serve their dark masters.

This page details people, events, and organisations from the /tg/ Heresy, a fan re-working of the Warhammer 40,000 Universe. See the /tg/ Heresy Timeline and Galaxy pages for more information on the Alternate Universe.

Traitor Guard

Sveran Ravagers

The Traitor Guard Army of Sver was once a PDF force loyal to Sver nobility. When Sver was utterly destroyed by The Sons of Fire Legion destroyed its capital and only hive. However, the operation was swift and left the shattered PDF forces with no leadership. Many, seeing the might of the Sons of Fire, decided to accept openly, the worship of the Blood God, imitating the Godlike beings that destroyed their planet. Sver was destroyed in the aftermath of the Heresy, but many regiments still march under their old banner, most in service with Sons of Fire warbands, many have since become stuff of legend, their ambush tactics accentuated by a hundred conflicts, first honed on their forested home.

Deiumaran Dragoons

Hailing from Deiumara, a planet of buttes, mesas, and plateaus, the Dragoons are some of the finest cavalrymen the Imperium has ever faced. The Dragoons specialize in outmaneuvering enemy infantry while invalidating the effectiveness of enemy armor by executing devastating raids, ambushes, and flanking maneuvers from unexpected angles and on extremely rugged terrain.

Traitor Titan Legions and Dark Mechanicus

Legio Olitiau ‘Fell Bats’

Hailing from the Night Forge World of Nerezza, lit only by the fires of a thousand forges, the Legio Olitau specialized in night attacks, their titans half-glimpsed dark shapes like primeval gods destroying all who stood before them. Even before the heresy it was said they had been stained by the dark, their use of Terror tactics like chaining dead foes to their Titans and occasionally cladding their titans in the flayed hides of enemies when the fight got particularly tough to break their spirits elicited note from those who fought alongside them. This would swell to encompass the Legion as the Heresy broke out, and soon the Titans of the Fell Bats wore twisted faces and living foes chained to their armour to act as human shields as the Dark Gods took them.

Legio Yache 'Snow Stalkers'

Hailing from the Ice world Khellathe, the Yache, 'Snow Stalkers' are masters of percision tactics and feared for their inhuman tactical knowledge brought upon by Tzeentch blessings. Once a renowned for their knowledge and tactical prowess, the Legion fell during the Heresy, when their Grandmaster, Orthos Grulin, was confronted by a lord of change while in meditation. For three days they were locked in endless debate until, the Grandmaster came out and announced his decision, to join Tzeentch in an attempt to expand their power beyond human means.

The Legio Yache were oath-bonded to the Mastodontii Legion before the Heresy, with a Demi-Legion Maniple of 20 Engines permanently seconded to the Legion and carried in the hold of the Starspear, and would continue to operate alongside them through the Heresy including on Zhuko V.

Traitor Knight Houses

House Castus- House Castus is a band of renegades, formerly Imperial Knights, that worship Khorne. They are based in the Eye of Terror under the command of Chaos Lord Teutates.

House Drăcul - Feared for their utter ruthlessness and lust for power, House Drăcul once ruled an entire mini Empire before the Great Crusade cut them to size. Siding with Hektor to regain their power and status, the Household soon gained a dark and dire reputation as the Heresy spread.
