Another Space Marine Chapter that has no info. YET they have been involved in a few things. Somehow no one has taken a photograph of them or even talked to their cousins. They also sound cooler than other chapters. To start off, they utilize stasis pods when they're not out killing heretics. It makes sense; your skills do not need to be maintained if you are in stasis nor do you need to be fed and whatnot. Huge cost savings on ammo and everything. Not only that, but since they are a Third Founding Chapter they still have some cool Heresy Era tech that is rare or non-existent in the 41st Millennium. They are known to have three Fellblades and a lot of Fire Raptors.
As of Devastation of Baal, they are said to be almost destroyed. But it is assumed they got some reinforcements with Primaris Marines.
Obliquely featured in the Inquisitor Carrow fan-fiction series, a Warhammer 40k/Harry Potter crossover. Which shouldn't work, but somehow does.
Campaigns
- War of The False Primarch - One of a few chapters that got their purging on with the Space Sharks, Flesh Eaters, Red Talons and the Death Eagles.
- Great Malagantine Purge - As stated.
- Messallas Purgation Campaign - Their biggest claim to fame.
- Angevin Crusade - This resulted in the creation of the Calixis Sector.
- Maelstrom Warders - Bundled up with a few other chapters to watch the Maelstorm. They were then sent on a crusade.
- Strato-Keeps of Keziah's Moon - They used more of their forces in this event than they had in the last three thousand years.
- Devastation of Baal - Took very heavy casualties in the battle and are said to be almost destroyed.
