Storm Legion

The Storm Legion is a Second Founding Successor Legion created from Ultramarines genetic stock. They were created alongside other such vaunted Legions as the Angels Cimmerian, Avenging Hawks, Black Templars, Raptors of Vulkan, Soul Drinkers, Thunder Lords, and Wolf Brothers. Like their fellow successors, the Storm Legion is notable for their closeness with their progenitors, many of their first command cadre and veteran Legionaries having been drawn directly from the Ultramarines themselves. Like other Legions of the Second Founding, the Storm Legion was noted for their long, honored legacy and stalwart dedication to the Second Great Crusade and the conquest and recapturing of lost glories of the original First Great Crusade. 
The Storm Legion continued to faithfully serve the Imperium of Man for nearly a millennium, until the time of 'twin-empire', when the Imperium was torn in-half, when the entirety of the Segmentum Pacificus declared independence from the Imperium proper, and formed their own pocket empire, which would later come to be known as the Nova Terra Regency. After nearly eight centuries of strife and attritional warfare, an uneasy cease-fire was called between the two warring factions. Since that time, the Storm Legion has served as one of the elite transhuman military force of Nova Terra's Ur-Legions, defending the sovereign borders of the Nova Terra Regency from both internal and external threats. 
==Legion History==
The Storm Legion was a Successor Legion created as a part of the massive Second Founding in 091.M32. Descended from the venerable Ultramarine genestock at the end of the Horus Heresy. This legion was created along side the Avenging Hawks Space Marine Legion as a way to try and boost the losses suffered during the events of the Horus Heresy. The Storm Legion was founded to replace the traitorous XIVth Legion (Death Guard), and brought honour and glory to their designated Legion number over the next millennia of faithful service. As the Ultramarine stock suffered the least out of the rest of the Space Marine Legions, it was used most prominently during the reconstruction of the Imperium. Thus, the Storm Legion continued to faithfully serve the Imperium of Man for the next millennium, until the tumultuous period of history known as the Nova Terra Interregnum occurred in the early years of the 33rd Millennium.
===Nova Terra Interregnum===
Beginning in 075.M33, the Ur-Council of Nova Terra declared independence from the rule of the High Lords of Terra, and declared the whole Segmentum Pacificus independent of Imperial rule. They had grown disenfranchised with the burgeoning Imperial state religion, in the form of the religious organisation known as the Ecclesiarchy, that zealously promoted the worship of the Emperor of Mankind as the one, true God of Humanity. To compound the secession of the Segmentum Pacificus, two First Founding Space Marine Legions, the feral Space Wolves and the stoic Iron Hands, joined the rebellious Ur-Council of Nova Terra. The two Primarchs were later followed by a number of Legion Masters, including the Storm Legion's, who also joined the Secessionist's cause. The Storm Legion was once counted as one of the most loyal legions that had served the Imperium of Man. Many Imperial Scholars debate to this day the reason the Storm Legion seceded from the Imperium but the one aspect that is agreed upon is that the Ecclesiarchy is the biggest cause of this once loyal and venerable legion turning traitor.

===Legion Recruitment===
The Storm Legion primarily recruits from the feral world of Proxima Minor but will recruit from almost anywhere. The Storm Legion will watch a potential recruit from a distance and will cause many obstacles and hardships to befall him to test his resolve. In many cases, the Watcher will start to isolate the potential recruit and see how much stress he can endure before he breaks. There have been documented cases of The Watcher whisking the recruit away and dropping him into the wild or environments that they are completely unfamiliar with caring little if he lives or dies only that he has a will to live. Once the potential aspirant is deemed acceptable he is taken to the primary Fortress Monastery simply known as The Bastion. Once there the recruits are given their permeant bunks and the long training begins.
