History

The Akechi Betrayal

In 882M41, Oda Company was deployed to a shrine world to combat invading Chaos forces. It was on this planet that Oda Company sergeant Akechi Mitsuhide and six other Rising Sons were corrupted by Chaos and defected. With their new allies, Akechi's "Traitorous Seven" ambushed Oda Company and dealt heavy casualties. In a climactic battle against Oda Nobunaga, Oda Company's Daimyo, Akechi inflicted a mortal wound upon him. Although the ambush was ultimately a failure, the Traitorous Seven escaped and likely fled the planet. Oda Nobunaga was encased in a dreadnought and Oda Hideyoshi took his place as Daimyo of Oda Company. The instance of corruption within Oda Company dealt a heavy blow to their honor and earned them varying levels of suspicion among their peers. As such, they are occasionally known as the Dishonored Company, ever-vigilant for any information regarding the whereabouts of the Traitorous Seven, so that they may take their revenge and reclaim their honor.

Subsector Yamato

Small, by subsector standards, Subsector Yamato is governed by the Rising Sons. It hosts a number of closely grouped star systems. Notable planets are as follows:

Interestingly, a Yamato system already exists in canon fluff, as mentioned by the Black Library short story collection 'Fear the Alien', in which the Iron Inferno story takes place on the planet Izanagi in the Yamato system which eventually falls to an Ork Waagh (With no sign of space marine intervention of any kind whatsoever.) How this enormous GW BITCHSMACK will affect the current Rising Sons fluff, only time can tell.


Sekai
Capitol of Subsector Yamato.
Medieval tech level.
Classic Sengoku age japan on a worldwide scale.
A densely populated feudal world, where warring clans forever battle for honor and prestige. The Shogun resides here at the planetary capitol. The Rising Sons will often send representatives to view especially important battles and scout for potential space marines.
Kyotoro
Heavily industrialized, not hive or forge however.
Produces most of the chapters wargear.
All major areas are controlled by the Forge-Clans.
Every 4 years, the various Forges "Bid" for the honor of producing the chapter's wargear through a period of intense conflict between them. The forge that captures the most territory is deemed to have constructed the best quality equipment and is thus awarded the contract. Techmarine are usually from here.
Otera
Shrine world.
The spiritual home of the chapter.
Home to several cults that interpret the Emperor in different ways.
Warfare is usually considered a "Holy War". Guns are frowned upon by some sects and embraced by others. To avoid undue damage to the shrines and temples, the wars generally consist of duels between champions or take place far away from the cities. The sites of the major battles tend to result in the foundation of a new shrine on that spot by the winning side, with the usual end being that the losing side's temple falls to pieces and eventually returns to being part of the landscape. this results in an eternal cycle of shrines being built and falling to pieces.
Tojo
Primary Source of Ashigaru regiments.
A highly militaristic world, Tojo is home to the fatalistic Ashigaru Imperial Guard regiments that often accompany the Rising Sons. They are renowned for their uncannily high morale and willingness to utilize suicide tactics at a moment’s notice. Bayonet charges into heavy fire are practically a trademark of the Ashigaru. The pilots within Battlefleet Yamato are also known to display this fatalistic attribute, often loading their small fighters with explosives and intentionally plunging them into enemy battleships.
Tengu
Feral Death World.
Primary Source of Rising Son Scouts.
It spends much of its time eclipsed by another planet, causing it to have long periods of twilight and nighttime. Every couple of months, the planet slips out of eclipse and is blasted by harsh heat from the sun. The human population often seeks shelter in the planet's vast and thick forests, but the during this period, forest fires are also frequent. During the eclipse period, the human population is constantly on the run and hiding from Tengu's variety of dangerous creatures. To survive, Tenguese learn to be extremely adept at stealth and hunting. Many of the Rising Sons' ninja scouts are recruited from here, as well as Ashigaru Stormtroopers, known as the Tengu.

Each company's mon is displayed somewhere on the space marine, usually the knee, helmet or back banner. Each daimyô relinquishes his old surname upon reaching this rank, replacing it with his company's name. Some, but not all space marines will do the same to display their loyalty to the company. These names and mon derive from actual historical clans of Sengoku Japan, which just so happen to coincide with the clans of the Sons' home sector.

Mon
The heraldic clan sigils that also act as the mark for each of the chapter's ten companies.
