Sons of Malice
'
The Sons of Malice are a Renegade Chapter of Chaos Space Marines who are particularly un
nerving individuals which have grown infamous amoungst the worshippers of Chaos. Fighti! ng in complete
silence, they drag captives off after raids and proceed to eat them, preferably while the captive is alive and fully aware of what is going on. Not for any trivial reason are they looked at as a chapter of Hannibal Lecters in space.

ns== The founding of the Sons of Malice is unknown although they are suspected to be one of the [[Astartes Praese s]], th ing chaos incursions into Imperial Space.
s of Malice fell wh
en, after a victorious campaign, they engaged in a series of victory celebrations that bordered on cannibalism and other unspeakable acts, which horrified the Inquisitor attached to their force. Thinking them corrupted by chaotic taint, the Inquisitor along with a strike force of Sisters of Battle Celestians assaulted the Sons of Malice chapter homeworld
of Scelus. The Sons fell on their attackers with savage anger at the interference to their chapter rites and defeated the Celestians, the captain of the first company dragging the Inquisitor to the chapter's altar and ritually sacrificing her before devouring her.
How lovely.
Needless to say the Imperium was a bit miffed at his and declared the Sons renegades. In return the
Sons engaged in a hate-fueled war with the Imperium. Needing a powerful patron, the sons found thi
Malal, the Chaos God of Terror
and Anarchy. As Malal is directly opposed to the other chaos powers, the Sons battle the other worshipe
or Malal has the great
plot armour powers of all.

Dark Times ahead...
Once every century, the Sons of Malice gather on the space hulk the Labyrinth, the closest thing th e renegades now have to a homeworld. This holds paramount importance to them and no matter t
heir commitments they return there at the appointment times. They bring slaves of all races to be ritually sacrificed (read: eaten) to Malal. Retreating to their cells with their captives, the Sons practice the lessons of Saint Hannibal and the halls echo with the screams for mercy.....grimdark!
Anothe

their side they will unleash a crusade of hate to claim revenge on all that stand in t
