Darius Medies

Imperial pct-capture of Darius, by Remembrancer Missy

**Darius Medies** was one of the most senior and powerful Librarians within the Stormbreakers Space Marine Chapter, with even the most senior officers choosing to take his advice. He has been known to lose his temper in the heat of battle, with explosive consequences for anyone close by. Darius is also known for being on of the most skilled combatants of the chapter, using his gifts to increase his speed and strength, and being able to face down even an Ork Warboss in single-combat. The Librarian bears a bolt pistol and large force sword into battle, however his weapons are often replaced by sheer psychic energy.

## Background

Darius Medies made his name as a young Librarian, taking out a Nurgle uprising within the Chapter, alongside Inquisitor Hunold Zecher, the fight ended with Darius dueling with his commander, who had been possessed by a Great Unclean One, within realspace and the warp. Darius despises the Inquisition, but must work with them on many occasions as a senior leader within the Chapter. He hates the Inquisition, and indeed, the High Lords as he finds them hypocritical and as cowards, hiding behind their rank.

He has faced Inquisitorial investigation many times, due not only to his controversial views but also his occasionally unstable psychic abilities, each time however, has only proven his overall loyalty to the chapter and the Imperium. It is rumoured amongst the chapter that he is being trained to be the successor to the Chief Librarian. He hates the Orks and the forces of Nurgle most of all, and is a killing machine when powered by his hatred against them.

Darius has currently been declared heretic by a renegade Inquisitor called Adalyn Dunkel. Adelyn was protected from being declared traitor by her high status, and she travelled the galaxy finding powerful warriors and kicking them out of the Imperium. She was bested in a duel by Darius, but not before the Forces of Chaos used her as a conduit for Warp energy for them to travel through.

Darius was later killed by Ilyanus Sohet of the Bulls of Retribution.

Burning of Salile

The **Burning of Salile** was an Imperial campaign involving the Astral Serpents Space Marine Chapter upon the Imperial world of Salile, which they defending from a massive Ork WAAAGH! in the latter centuries of M36. Faced with an overwhelming tide of greenskin forces which seemed to be drawn to the brutal conflict on Salile, and with three whole companies nearly destroyed, the Chapter was forced to enact *Exterminatus* upon the doomed world to prevent it from falling into the hands of the vile Orks.

## History

They landed upon the world and began to kill its populace and destroy its cities, soon after the Astral Serpents rallied their allies and moved on Salile to retake it. The fighting was fierce and hard fought and in the hive city of Vestral the 3rd, 6th, and 7th companies were practicality destroyed when the orks made the city's power plant go critical and explode. With losses mounting, and three whole companies practically destroyed, the Chapter ordered that *Exterminatus* be used upon Salile.
Battle for Anoxic'an

This Feral world seemed insignificant to the Imperium only really pressing their warriors into feral regiments to the astra militarum every generation. However near the end of the 37th millennium. That changed when a force of the T'au xenos landed on the planet.

The alien's diplomats swooned the tribal leaders to devote themselves to the Greater Good. When the chapter heard word of this betrayal they took action, accompanying the Astartes were regiments of Grytalen Guardsmen. They descended onto the far side of the planet and made the long march to the alien base. The operation started off successful until an arrogant Nomad Scout failed to assassinate the T'au leader.

Because of this failure the T'au were alerted to the imperial forces, this was followed by an intense battle in the dense jungles. Because of the Nomad's failure he unintentionally caused the death of Storm Captain Eralan, Tempest Marshal Durkorva and his squad. The failed Nomad was harshly punished because of this. What followed was months of rough fighting in the jungles until the imperials broke through the Tau line. After that breakthrough the Chapter and Guardsmen slaughtered the aliens and burned the base to the ground. After the planet was reconquered the chapter showed their wrath to the leaders that betrayed the Imperium.
Belaxalar Xenocide

The **Belaxalar Xenocide** was a xenocidal purgation campaign conducted by the Castigators Space Marine Chapter's 2nd Company against the alien Belax xenophorms. The Adeptus Mechanicus coveted the natural resources of this world, and so, at the behest of their Chapter Master, the 2nd Company launched a xenocidal campaign upon the world of Belax and eradicated it's population. Following this campaign they handed over the conquered world to the Adeptus Mechanicus to do with it, as they will.

## History

The world of Belax was stark, with an atmosphere high in gaseous ammonia and low in oxygen. Elaborate crystalline cities dominated the landscape, inhabited by the Belax, a young and belligerent race with advanced technologies. The Belax utilised birthing chambers, fluid-filled tanks that could hasten the development of the young. The technology had even been used to improve upon their anatomy, breeding warriors with armour plates, poison sacs, spiked knuckles and other such martial modifications. Vicious wars between the nation-states of Belax were not uncommon; indeed the only thing capable of uniting the disparate peoples of the Belaxalar would be an Imperial invasion.

Captain Caphius, at the behest of Chapter Master Avitus, conducted a xenocidal campaign against Belax so that the Adeptus Mechanicus could conduct mining operations upon it. The 2nd Company fought a ferocious war against the Belax, before emerging victorious. By the time the 2nd Company left Belaxalar, all of the Belax had been utterly wiped out. The Adeptus Mechanicus abandoned the world less than a decade later, after finding that the ore extracted from the planet was not of sufficient quality to merit excavation.
Battles of Samana

The **Battle of Samana** was an Imperial defensive campaign fought by elements of the Mauryan Guard Astra Militarum Regiments against an insurrection of Chaos Cultists on the IMperial world of Saragarhi.

## Background

Valiant last stand on the planet Saragarhi during a Chaos uprising that swept across the entire planet between its garrison of 30 from the 63rd Renjara Regiment's 11th Company and over 20,000 Chaos cultists whipped into a blood frenzy. The outpost was located on a ridge overlooking a massive valley down below with the loyalist town of Samana in the middle of it, also two forts located north & south of the outpost were garrisoned but constantly fending off raiders. When the cultists horde was spotted the garrison of guardsman tried to signal the forts for reinforcements but raids in there areas made it impossible for at least 24 hrs.

They voxed the town of Samana to to be ready to defend itself from cultists and then they decided to make the outpost a last stand if need be to keep the enemy from reaching the peaceful farmers living in Samana. The cultists tried several times to push through the gate but were repulsed by the defenders overwhelming firepower from its heavy weapon emplacements, but on the 5th assault they were able to take the gate and push toward the inner tower where the rest of the defenders had already taken cover in and poured out as much munitions as possible before the cultists swarmed the bottom levels and butchered any they found, evidence shows that the defenders fought a savage melee outside the entrance to the vox tower.

The last survivor, voxman for the outpost Pvt. Gurmukh, killed dozens trying to reach the top most level before they just burned the entire tower down with him in it. Over half of the cultists were estimated to have died in the attack to the mauryans 30. The rest of the 63rd arrived the next day & the much quicker Second Battle of Samana erupted as the guardsmen took a bloody vengeance on the cultists found there.

Due to the courage of the outpost garrison they cultists were unable to take the town in the valley below since they were busy scavenging to replenish there meager munitions & replace there dead when the 63rd attacked them from all sides. Lt. Ishar Singhe & the rest of his men were revered as heroes to the Saragarhites and all of Maurya when word got back home.
Burning Cross

Armorial of the Onyx Executioners

The lamentable event known as **Burning Cross** is one of the most tragic events that occurred in the history of the Onyx Executioners, then known as the Crusaders of Glory, when they fell to internecine fighting amongst one another. Despite the majority of the Chapter falling to the Ruinous Powers, a small faction of Loyalists valiantly fought against their traitorous kin, and with the help of the Inquisition, managed to cast down their erstwhile former brethren. Following this event, the Chapter changed their livery, heraldry and Chapter name, and launched a penitent crusade to redeem themselves of their former brother's sins.

## Background

One of the most lamentable events in the Chapter's history, the event known as the 'Burning Cross' was a Chapter civil war that broke out between opposing factions. Under the influence of a chaos daemonhost, most of the Crusaders of Glory were corrupted by the insidious influence of the Ruinous Powers and turned away from the light of the Emperor. Only a handful of worthy and unaffected battle-brothers stood up against the renegades, which resulted in a bloody-handed internecine conflict. With the assistance of the Ordo Hereticus and an order of the Adepta Sororitas, were the loyalist Astartes of the Chapter able to overcome their corrupted brethren and eventually be redeemed of their erstwhile brethren's sins. To mark this lamentable event in their Chapter's history, the remaining loyalist Astartes changed their heraldry, livery and their Chapter name, and would forevermore be known as the 'Onyx Executioners'.
Attack on Malochai

The **Attack on Malochai** was a vicious attack carried out by the infamous Sons of Damnation Renegade Chapter against the Deathwatch Watch Station Malochai, in order to steal a power daemonic artefact.

## History

The Sons of Damnation assault Watch Station Malochai, a Deathwatch fortress, which contained a powerful daemonic artefact, known as the *Forbidden Book*. Utilising their fell sorcery, the Sons of Damnation, and their Chaos Cultist followers erupted from Warp portals deep inside the Watch Station and began their deadly assault. After clearing an entire floor, some of the Chaos Cultist leaders initiated a ritual summoning while their Sons of Damnation overlords began their search for the malefic book. The Sons' forces were soon bolstered by an army of summoned daemons of Khorne. The Sons took advantage of the confusion caused by the conflagration, and made their way towards their objective. But the book was well protected within the Watch Station's vault. However, the Sons were able to bypass the automated defences, and utilising high explosives, blew the vault door open.

Claiming their prize, the Sons began a hasty withdrawal. However, the Renegade Astartes did not count on the Deathwatch being bolstered by a Brotherhood of Grey Knights Space Marines. As the Sons' exited the Watch Station to reach their pickup points to be extracted by their Chapter's gunship transports, their way was blocked by the stalwart defenders of humanity. The ensuing battle between the two opposing forces was bloody in the extreme. Though the Sons took many casualties, they managed to affect their escape after First Captain Ner'zhul and his Terminator elite of the Sons' First Company, teleported amongst the Grey Knights and began to slaughter the loyalist Astartes in a deadly crossfire. But the Grey Knights were not so easily defeated, and soon, using their innate gestalt psychic abilities, quickly turned the tables on the Chaos Terminators. The Sons of Damnation had what they had come for, and Tyrant Kel'thuzad and what was left of his surviving Sons' were able to affect their escape. Ner'zhul and only ten of his warriors managed to survive the encounter with the Grey Knights.
Caïri

Armorial of the Storm Angels Chapter.

Master Archivist **Caïri** is the current Chief Librarian of the fierce and unforgiving Storm Angels Space Marine Chapter. His innate psychic abilities, foresight and wisdom, saw his meteoric rise to the esteemed positions as Master of the Librarius within the span of only a few decades. Leading his Chapter's psychic battle-brothers, Caïri is responsible for preserving the memory of his Chapter as well as training the next generation of Librarians.

## Background

Even on the small island which saw him live his childhood, Caïri was held in high esteem but also feared. It was said that he was a Child of the Storm, for the day he was birthed, his eyes were alight with the pure lightning of the magical powers. That the babe managed to protect himself from the predators of the Warp is nothing but a sheer miracle. It was said that Caïri had visions of a golden seraph coming down to bring him to the stars, where he would fight to protect the All-Islands from the Sky.

And indeed, when aged eight, Caïri was selected by a Chaplain of the Storm Angels to become one of their third generation recruit on Ionnacaira. The young tribesman proved himself for he was as strong of body as he was of mind, and the purity of his soul surprised even the Librarians of the Chapter. Among those Angels of Death, the psyker endured not only the trials of all Aspirants, but also had to learn how to channel his powers in the ways of the Chapter. In both endeavor, he proved a superb student and in mere weeks, he was deemed worthy of becoming a Novitiate of the Librarius.

There, Caïri's star grew ever more, as his humble nature endured. Soft-spoken and noble of soul, the Archivist's meteoric rise was due both to his raw potential and his wonderful personality, which managed to earn the respect of any and all who talked with him. That his powers were among the strongest of the Storm Angels psykers obviously helped his case, for only the most seniors psykers in the Chapter could boast a greater ability to bolster their Brothers while tearing their foes in half or unleashing on them psychic storms filled with witch-lightning.

As of today, Caïri has been the Master Archivist for centuries, cultivating both the talents of his psyker Brothers, preserving the story and traditions of his Chapter through all the trials and tribulations. It was he who foresaw the coming of the Long Dark, he who insisted that the young epistolary Accaiou be sent with Akodu to seek out the Indomitus Crusade, and he who urged Koratao to remain careful when using the Rubicon Primaris, and helping soothe the tensions mounting among his Battle-Brothers. As of today, Caïri remains a normal Astartes but has started the training of the newly inducted Primaris Librarians, preserving the future of the Storm Angels.
Battle for Pythos 2

The **Battle for Pythos 2** was an Imperial castigation campaign carried out by the Dragons Sanguine against a large warband of Iron Warriors. This vile Traitor Legion had taken control of the Overion System, and headquartered themselves upon the Imperial world of Pythos 2. The Dragons Sanguine immediately deployed to the beleaguered system to free the Imperial citizens from the Iron Warriors' grasp.

Though the Dragons Sanguine launched a brilliant campaign against the vile Heretic Astartes, the Iron Warriors extensive mechanised armour gave them an advantage, costing the loyalist Chapter dearly during the brutal and bloody conflict. Though the Chater eventually emerged victorious, they had sustained extensive losses amongst their senior leadership, including the death of their Chapter Master.

## History

A warband of Iron Warriors took hold of the Overion System. The chapter deployed on Pythos 2 to engage the traitor marines. The battle was strongly in the favor of the Iron Warriors until the mechanized units of the guard arrived. This battle has led to the deaths of many high ranking Dragons Sanguine including the death of their First Chapter Master Blood Shedder. The chapter managed to obliterate the traitors and recapture the world. Another ancient dreadnought took his place.
Cleansing of Qixes

Armorial of the Emperor's Reapers.

The **Cleansing of Qixes** was an Imperial retribution campaign carried out by the Emperor's Reapers Space Marine Chapter against secessionist elements upon the forge world of Quixes, located in the Segmentum Obscurus.

## Background

When the forge world of Qixes rose in open rebellion against the Imperium's rule and attempted to secede, the Emperor's Reapers were tasked with culling out the Traitor elements and to assist with the loyal Tech-Priests that remained loyal to the Imperium, in the reclamation of their world.

The unforgiving Chapter deployed wholesale, and quickly brought the wrath of the Emperor down upon the secessionist forces that dare turn from the light of His grace. Fighting alongside the Quixes Mechanicus powerful Skitarii legions, the Loyalist forces fought a two year-long conflict, they eventually saw the Dark Mechanicus elements and the secessionist allies purged from the forge world.
Battle of Sanus

The **Battle of Sanus** is one of the earlier recorded raids conducted by the formed Crow's Children Chaos Warband, which had fallen to the corrupting influence of the Ruinous Powers over two centuries earlier during the Night of the Crow. Over the following centuries, the Crow's Children razed worlds in the name of the Dark Gods. They enjoyed wanton slaughter and decadence so much that their Chaos Lord, Daedelus, offered the entire Sub-sector as a prize for the Dark Gods, which included their loyalist brothers, the Penitent Knights. This warband's insatiable lust for death would them throughout their former home system and eventually earn them the moniker, 'The Scourge of Asteria'.

## History

Following years spent in the Warp with their new daemonic masters, the Crow's Children reappeared in the Aegimius System, and immediately set to laying waste to the civilised world of Sanus and its young Imperial settlements. Descending upon the helpless populace with their Corvian-styled jump-packs, the Children massacred all they could see, reducing cities to rubble in a matter of hours with their Warp-forged weaponry. The Penitent Knights, however, rushed to annihilate the traitors with all speed, but alas arrived days too late to save the civilians of Sanus due to the Children virtually destroying all communication from the planet.

When the Knights arrived on the doomed world, they were greeted by the horrific sight of a sea of bones and broken buildings. But in Thadeliv, Sanus' capital, the Crow's Children had erected grand effigies of the Chaos Gods from the metal and bone reaped from the innocents of Sanus. A fierce battled followed as the loyalist and traitor marines engaged within the confines of Thadeliv, with great costs to both sides. Lithandros and Daedelus dueled in the throne room of the previous Planetary Governor, while the rest of the Knights fought in an almost berserk state against their traitor brothers, for both their betrayal and the devastation they had caused.

Ultimately, Daedelus had eventually tired out the Highlord to the point where he was able to knock Lithandros to the ground and rip off the loyalist's left arm from his body with his power fist before he was wounded by bolter fire from Knight Captain Balder Karn of the Order of the Gryphon. Subsequently, the Crow's Children retreated back into the Warp using a portal they had crafted.

After the idols of the Chaos Gods had been utterly destroyed by the Penitent Knights, Lithandros deemed that the barren world of Sanus would be redesignated a cemetery world known as Penance, an eternal reminder of the consequence of their failure and of their responsibility to defend the innocent from the wicked jaws of their heretic former kin.
Battle of the Blood

Armorial of the Desert Hawks.

The **Battle of the Blood** is a notable incident that occurred to the newly incepted Desert Hawks Space Marine Chapter during the second century of M37, when they encountered the savage Chaos Warband known as the Blood Ravagers.

## Background

During a escort mission of Manfred Cervas, Inquisitor from the Ordos Xenos, three Strike Cruisers from the Desert Hawks was attacked by *Khorne's Revenge*, a Chaos Battle Barge belonging to the Blood Ravagers Chaos Warband.

The *Khorne's Revenge* destroyed two of the Cruisers with it's mighty guns and the ship of the escorted Inquisitor was boarded. Only when Warleader Elsu and his 1st Company made an assault directly to the command bridge of the *Khorne's Revenge*, defeated Chaos Lord Whreg the Unbroken, the battle ended.

During the battle the inquisitor were badly wounded. Before his death, he made the Chapter to sworn to protect the thing he was carrying, a artifact of unknown power and use, called The Essence. Even to keep it a secret from the rest of the Inquisition. Since that day the artifact has been kept in the depth of the Chapters Fortress-Monastery.
Battle of Montai

Armorial of the Star Reapers.

The **Battle of Montai**, known also as '***M'yen Mont'au***', was an Imperial xenodical castigation campaign conducted by the unforgiving Star Reapers Space Marine Chapter against encroaching forces of the T'au Empire near the world of Montai.

## Background

A battle between the Reapers and the forces of the Tau around the world of Montai. Imperial craft had dropped out of the warp unexpectedly, hovering over a newly colonised Tau world like a menacing bird of prey. The Tau commander Shas'O Kais, a veteran of the Kronus conflicts with the Blood Ravens, drew from his experience fighting Space Marines and prepared accordingly. The first action would be to attack this lone ship, which was presumed to be a scout. Being out of range of ground based orbital defences, the Tau's ships moved to engage it directly. Strangely, the ship appeared close to harmless, simply drifting on low power with heavy exterior damage. The only trace of life was a strange signal playing over and over, oddly in the Tau's own language.
The message itself was a call for help, a desperate cry for relief, followed by a dire warning - "The terror, they are coming." The ship then disappeared.

The already unnerved Tau forces strengthened their defences, providing a orbital blockade to compliment the heavy defences on the ground. Suddenly, Shas'O Kais lost contact with the orbiting ships. Long range scanners indicated they were all unmoved and intact, but no signals were transmitted. Then the ships spoke, but not in the dialect of the Tau. A singular repeating chant echoed in the Taus minds as the light of the planet went out. Unknown ships arrived in orbit and launched strange missiles down to the planet. These missiles caused strange gases to enter the atmosphere, blocking out the sun with deep, smothering clouds. Electrical lightning storms graced the skies, several bolts striking the ground. To the horror of the Tau, from these bolts came sable armoured Space Marines, covered in chilling, swirling markings and spitting howling death from their bolters.

Shais O'kais was quick to counterattack, organising his men into firing lines and unleashing hails of plasma at their new foes. Every shot directed at the spectral foes never met its mark, then the true storm struck. It was said that the lightning twisted to form nightmarish icons in the sky as the entire Space Marine force struck from every conceivable direction. The ghosts struck with a savage speed, ripping through the Tau in bloody ruthlessness. Then the storm ceased, and the Star Reapers vanished. When the smog choking the sky lifted, only Shas'O Kias and his command squad remained, surrounded by the mutilated remains of his force.
Battle of Old

The **Battle of Old** was a campaign that would be the first step onto the path of damnation for the Sanctors of Lightrim Space Marine Chapter when the battle a large Chaos Warband comprised of the infamous Black Legion Traitor Legion upon the world of Old. Here, is one of the first recorded instances where the Sanctors of Lightrim utilised the fellow powers of Chaos as a tool to defeat the Great Enemy.

## History

The Sanctors of Lightrim were a formerly Loyalist Space Marine Chapter that became sentinels over the worlds of the Nosgothica Sector, which were located to the galactic north of the Segmentum Obscurus, to guard against both Traitor Legion incursions and daemonic attack. Claiming the world of Lightrim as their Chapter home world, this highly monastic order were known for being dedicated to the scholarly arts as to the ways of war. As true warrior-monks, they were assiduous in studying the teachings of the Emperor, the Primarchs, and Malcador the Sigillite.

It is not known exactly when the Sanctors began their fall from grace, but the path to damnation is rarely one set upon with deliberate intent. Over their centuries of service, many within the Sanctors came to the realisation that to illuminate the recesses of the universe one should not simply cast out the shadows, but to come to understand what truly resides in the dark corners. First and foremost, the Sanctors were seekers of knowledge and had compiled, over many centuries, a substantial repository of forbidden lore relating to the Warp and the Ruinous Powers. Continuously beset by the Forces of Chaos, little by little, step-by-step, the Sanctors' methods and outlooks changed.

Most likely, this Chapter's first compromise occurred in 441.M41, during the campaign known as the Battle of Old. A vitally important mining world, Old was beset upon by a large warband of the Black Legion. The Sanctors were forced to hold off a substantial force of Chaos Space Marines bolstered by daemonic allies. Due to atmospheric interference, the Sanctor forces on the ground were unable to raise their vessels in orbit. Cut off and surrounded on all sides, the outlook looked bleak for the Imperial defenders, as they were faced inevitable annihilation. Reports are unclear as to what exactly occurred after this point, but miraculously, the Sanctors managed to snatch a decisive victory from the jaws of defeat, driving the Forces of Chaos from the planet. Only much later, following their excommunication, would Inquisitorial investigations reveal that the Sanctors' so-called 'miracle' was only achieved through dark means - by utilising the powers of the Warp itself.
Battle of the Bloodied Cloth

Armorial of the Dawn Stalkers.

The **Battle of the Bloodied Cloth** is one of several campaigns that was a part of the much larger The Second Burning crusade, in which the Dawn Stalkers Chapter played an instrumental role in defending against a large World Eaters invasion force.

## Background

In one such battle the Dawn Stalkers' 5th Company had fought until the last man, daring to not open the line to civilians still evacuating in a small mining settlement. Cementing their place in the chapter's history, the captain of the 5th drove his banner into the ground, declaring that so long as his colours shone in the light, so would the 5th stand as solid as stone and steel. Pushing ever closer to the evacuation site, the civilians were soon to be at risk of a sudden charge of over two hundred World Eaters. Holding true to the words he spoke the captain took his remaining forty Dawn Stalkers of the 5th and launched a desperate counter-attack, hoping to delay the World Eaters long enough for the last shuttle to take off.

For several hours the Dawn Stalkers engaged in brutal melee combat and firefights, all in the hope the last of the town could get out, in which they did. Knowing that the civilian populace was safe, but at the cost of being dug into a now inescapable battle the captain drew his sword and surged his remaining brothers forth, with but a few words to have them remembered by. "*Today you have given all you are, and now you must give all that is left! For with that final price, the enemy shall learn to fear us, and once they go screaming back to their masters, disgraced and dishonoured, our roar of defiance shall linger in their minds forevermore! Never relent, always endure!*"

Heartened by their captain's words, the remaining Astartes lept from their defences and surged forth, taking scores of the World Eaters with them for the price of one. It was that day as the last of the 5th fell that a great many of the present World Eaters felt something other than blinding anger for the first time in millennia, if only for a brief second. They felt fear, and they learnt that the Dawn Stalkers were not a foe that would die with ease nor without cost. A relief force from the 3rd was sent for to assist the embattled 5th and found naught but bodies, and their company banner, stained with blood and dirt still fluttering against the setting sun.
Bruce Cullen

Armorial of the Void Ravens Chapter.

Knight-Brother **Bruce Cullen** was a notable Chapter hero of the Void Ravens Space Marine Chapter that served in M38.

## Background

The Knight-Brother Cullen became a hero of the Chapter when he and the nine Brothers he commanded were dispatched by the Fourth Hold to answer a call from the Hive World of Hellios II in 754.M38. Over a period of two years, he and his Brothers hunted down the cells of a vast cult of assassins and killers, hiding in the underbellies of each Hive-City and launching deadly strikes against the figures of authority on Helios. Cullen answered by unleashing his formidable knowledge in terror attacks against the population of the underhives, forcing them to reveal what they knew to make the horrors cease.

This is how he managed to find a trail which led him to the leader of the cult, an old and demented Night Lords Legionary, who was following his own path of revenge against the Imperium. The Chaos Space Marine was felled by the Knight-Brother after a terrible fight which claimed the lives of four Void Ravens. Cullen and his remaining soldiers were retrieved by the Chapter mere days after their battle, but the Knight-Brother died from his wounds, which had been infected by some secret poison and refused to close. To this day, he is still seen as the epitome of what a Brother of rank must be among the Void Ravens.
Bethor Semalion

Armorial of the Seraphim of the Abyss.

Master **Behor Semalion** is a notable company commander belonging to the Seraphim of the Abyss Space Marine Chapter. He is noted for being the youngest of his fellow company commanders within the Chapter.

## Background

Well-tempered and battle hardened, Bethor Semalion has served the Seraphim of the Abyss as Company Master for four hundred Terran years. Bethor is the youngest of any of his fellow Masters of the Chapter, and his armor is relatively humble, considering his peers. Bethor's face could be described as handsome with a groomed beard and the Lion's emerald green eyes, his visage unmarred by scars or blemishes, a credit to his skills. He has proudly taken possession of a Torchblade Sword, legendary relic weapons of the Chapter, which he earned after his role in hunting a conclave of Fallen in the Scarus Sector while among the numbers of the Deathwing.
Battle of Goreshore

The **Battle of Goreshore** was a xenocidal purgation campaign carried out by the Thunder Guardians Space Marine Chapter against the threats of invading Orks on the Imperial world of Keddian.

## Background

When Orks once again invaded a nearby system of the ever vigilant Thunder Guardians Chapter, they immediately dispatched the entirety of the Chapter to the besieged world of Keddian in the Kelid Sector to assist the beleaguered Imperial defenders. Though the Astra Militarum forces put up a valiant defence, and event bravely launched an all-out assault against the the greenskin forces, they were woefully outmatched, numberwise, and sustain extensive casualties. Especially when they assaulted the Ork-occupied Fort Gallupoly.

Facing their inevitable defeat, they were saved by the timely arrival of the Thunder Guardians Chapter, which immediately launched an orbital assault upon the orks' position. Launching their drop pods and thunderhawk gunships, they utilised the distraction of the Astra Militarum defenders who took the brunt of the greenskin attack and outflanked the attacking orks and annihilated the remaining greenskin forces.
Bloodtide War

The **Bloodtide War** was an Imperial defensive campaign conducted by the Storm Angels Space Marine Chapter in the defence of their Chapter Homeworld of Ionnacaira against a mysterious xenos menace that descended upon their home system, without warning, from the Ghoul Stars.

## Background

In 777.M41, abominations made of living metal and clad in the rotting corpses of their victims began to emerge from deep within the Ghoul Stars. Six backwater worlds were ravaged, their entire populations slaughtered in the most horrific fashion. When the foul beings finally descended upon the Storm Angels' Chapter Homeworld of Ionnacaira, they were met with the entire might of the Chapter. The Storm Angels fought with greater rage and fury than ever before, still led by their first Chapter Master, whose name has been lost to history. However, before the unrelenting horde of xenos, they were forced to retreat from the outer border of their system to their homeworld, mounting a desperate defence.

For six years, the unrelenting Bloodtide almost overpower the Chapter. However, the aliens are finally destroyed and repelled, as their inability to slaughter the primitives inhabitants of the Oceanic World seems to drive them to near suicidal behavior and infighting, as those whose rotting parts have utterly succumbed to age assault those who are still clad in relatively fresh gore. Finally, the last of the abominations are repelled, after having slaughtered a great number of the natives. The Feast of Victory which follows lead thousands more to their death as the Astartes gorge on the flesh of their human kin to celebrate the end of those dark times.
Ateas

Zaeragos **Ateas** is the current commander of the Nemean Lions's Sparagos specialist formation and Deathspeaker of the 10th Speria (Company).

## Background

Zaeragos Ateas, is the Deathspeaker of the 10th Speria and is therefore master of the Sparagos. This is an elite kill team of the Chapter's finest warriors, gathered to undertake perilous missions to retrieve the bodies of Lions that have be taken as trophies by foes. Such desecration is anathema to the Lions, and they will ensure that these trophies are retrieved at any cost so that the slain brother can cross to the spiritworld in peace. As the leader of this force, Ateas is responsible for selecting the members of these teams and overseeing their missions. As wielder of the Blade of Zaeragos, he is responsible for conducting the ritual execution of foes captured by the Sparagos, should this occur.

## Personality

Ateas is a deeply spiritual Astartes, spending much time in the company of the Spiritwalkers and mortal tribal elders when he is on the homeworld.
Ateas is of a conservative mindset, initially opposing the adoption and integration of the Primaris. He changed his mind when Iphaclus spoke to him personally, invoking the word of the ancestors and meditating on the matter at length. While he was still reluctant to attempt crossing the Rubicon, the matter was later settled when a sniper grievously injured him during a recovery mission, leaving him with little choice.

## Appearance

Ateas possesses the dark skin, black hair, and brown eyes that are typical to the people of Caelus Prime. Like all of the warriors of Caelus, he bears ritual tattoos on his face and body that display his status and history. Ateas hails from the Stormborn, a deeply religious tribe which provides a large percentage of the Chapter's Spiritwalkers and Deathspeakers. As a result, his body is more deeply adorned with tattoos and scarification than most of his brothers.

## Wargear

* **Power Armour** - A heavily customised suit of Mk X armour, Ateas’ cuirass was rebuilt from the original suit of Artificer armour worn by his predecessors after he crossed the Rubicon. Highly ornate, the armour features a long coat in the style seen on the Judiciars of other Chapters and an eagle faced helm.
* **Blade of Zaeragos** - A power sword crafted at the inception of the Sparagos, based on the ancient combat blades of the Nemeans. While a potent combat weapon in its own right, it is primarily a ceremonial weapon.
* **Storm Shield** - Ateas carries a Bladeguard shield, adorned with the skeleton of an executed foe on the front, something that is viewed with a mixture of disgust and respect by the rest as the Chapter and a symbol of fear to those that he hunts.
* **Sagaris** - One of a number gifted by the Immortals after the harrowing of Epipolae. Rather than a specific piece given to the Zaeragos, this Sagaris was paired with Ateas upon his ascension to the Sparagos and has remained with him throughout his time with them.

Dargosa Crusade

The **Dargosa Crusade** was a joint-Imperial planetary defensive operation carried out by several companies from the Storm Zealots, Space Naga and Thousand Blades Space Marine Chapters, supported by local PDF and a regiment of Astra Militarum forces and Knight House Orenstein, in the defense of the vitally important hive world of Dargosa from a large invading Heretic Astartes forces. This brutal and bloody campaign would drag on for seven, grinding years of constant conflict, resulting in billions of dead. Though the planet would eventually be liberate, it would be done so at great personal cost in Imperial dead.

## History

A distress call was received from the hive world of Dargosa. It had been invaded by a mass army of Chaos Space Marines, daemons, and their cultist followers under the leadership of the Chaos Lord and Champion of Nurgle known as Gangrius. After receiving the distress signal, the Storm Zealots' Chapter Master then assigned the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Company as well as Knight House Orenstein to aid Dargosa alongside two other Space Marine Chapters, the Space Naga under Captains Gupte and Vidanam of the 2nd and 6th Company, and Thousand Blades under Captain Sikorski of the 3rd Company.

The Imperial strike force, composed of the three Space Marine Chapters, alongside local Planetary Defence Forces and the 90th Dargosan Rangers launched a lightning assault upon the beleaguered world, battling and defending every layer of the stricken Hive City capital. Thanks to the defence craft of the Storm Zealots, powerful psykers of the Space Naga and the Thousand Blades' fast-attacks comprised of a combination of Bike Squads and Stormtalon gunships, the Hive City of Dargosa was able to hold out against the Forces of Chaos.

It was then in the sixth year of the Dargosa Crusade that the Imperium finally managed to break through the third layer, cleanse the dead with fire and proceed through. During the process, Captain Zachariah and Captain Avishai encountered the remnants of the traitorous former 5th Company present on the battlefield, led by a new Champion of Nurgle, Abe Farren. He was an ex-Sergeant of the 5th Company's 2nd Tactical Squad, who had somehow rose through the ranks amongst the traitor forces. Farren manage to ambush Captain Zachariah's squad but the bravery and finesse of the Storm Zealots were able to turn the tide of battle. During the conflict, the Chaos Champion somehow manage to elude his former brethren and make good his escape.

The war waged for almost seven years, with casualties rising into the billions on both sides. The death of Lord Gangrius marked the end of this brutal conflict. His skull was shattered and his tainted soul was absorbed by the psyker-enhanced Force Mace wielded by Captain Gupte of the Space Naga, in retribution for the death of Captain Vidanam. Although the Nurgle Champion Farren escape through a warp gate, his remaining forces were purged with bolter and flame by Captains Zachariah and Avishai, though the world was liberated at great personal cost.
Coming of the Scions

The **Coming of the Scions** was a momentous occasion in the Penitent Knights Space Marine Chapter's history, for they were granted the rare honour of being able to sire a Successor Chapter of their own - the Heralds of the Storm - in recognition of their heroic deeds while fighting against a particularly vicious xenos race known as the Vya.

## History

Following their exemplary and heroic actions during a campaign against a Chaos worshiping insectoid xenos race known as the Vya, and their celebrated success during the battle known as "Galastram's Charge," the Penitent Knights Chapter was given the honor of siring a new Successor Chapter, that being the Heralds of the Storm. The Knights were heavily involved with the beginnings of the new Chapter, devoting an entire Order, or Company, to ensure that the young Astartes would receive the best training they could, even so far as to grant the Feudal World of Ostrava for the Scions to found and build their Chapter. Soon after the Sons were considered ready for action they left the Aegimius System to patrol around the Gothic Sector for Crusades to join, eager to prove themselves.
Burning of Boletaria

The **Burning of Boletaria** was one of the darkest days in the history of the Seraphim of the Abyss Chapter, when their Chapter homeworld of Boletaria was destroyed by an invasion by a large force comprised of Fallen Angels.

## History

A battle that has been shrouded in secrecy and suspicion brought by the Inquisition, the Seraphim of the Abyss were borne of this terrible and harrowing incident. But what is known is that the Feudal World of Boletaria was destroyed during a bloody void war engaged above the planet, and that the Seraphim of the Abyss were locked in combat with an unknown and ferocious enemy. Even though they were clearly outnumbered by the foe, they denied any requests for aid as they defended their home.

The Fallen Angels had assembled in great strength and sought their own vengeance on the isolated Chapter, until the Materium was torn open and Warp Rifts appeared across the galaxy, and Boletaria was torn apart by a newborn Immaterial Rift close by. In agonizing grief, the Seraphim of the Gryphon fled the system as the Warp-tides inadvertently destroyed much of the Fallen fleet. Their world demolished and their oaths failed, the Chapter became the Seraphim of the Abyss and their burning hatred for the heretical traitors multiplied by hundreds of times as they quickly rebuilt their ranks and immediately set out to hunt down their aggressors.
Conquest of Atmos

The **Conquest of Atmos** was a joint-xenocidal purgation campaign carried by the brutal and ferocious Blood Scorpions and Flesh Tearers Space Marine Chapters against a vile Drukhari Kabal upon the vital Imperial hive world of Atmos. This grinding and bloody campaign lasted for six years, resulting in the death of billions of Imperial citizens. During the final battle of the campaign, outnumbered 3-to-1, the Flesh Tearers let their rage get the better of them, and were drawn into a cunning trap for their scheming xenos. Surrounded on all sides, the Flesh Tearers vowed to sell their lives dearly, when they received salvation in the form of their cousin Chapter - the Blood Scorpions - who viciously fought their way through the Drukhari's numberless ranks. Standing side-by-side, the two Chapters launched a ferocious counter-attack, and in a final assault, eradicated the Drukhari in a hail of blood and gore.

## History

The Blood Scorpions and their brutal cousins, the Flesh Tearers, undertake a joint xenocidal campaign against the Dark Eldar Kabal of the Barbed Lash upon the Imperial Hive World of Atmos. This savage campaign lasts six years, and sees the death of billions of innocents. During the final engagement, the Flesh Tearers are drawn into a cunning trap by the Dark Eldar. With the loss of many of their battle-brothers, the Flesh Tearers are outnumbered. Prepared to face their imminent destruction they boldly prepare to sell their lives dearly. Seeing their plight, the Blood Scorpions fight their way through the Dark Eldar's lines and save their fellow Successor Chapter. Bolstered by their cousins, the Flesh Tearers proceed to lead the final assault upon the Dark Eldar Archon's position and take his head. From then on, the two Chapters forge a strong warrior bond and continue to fight alongside the other in numerous campaigns.

## Physical Description

### **Weight**

Unknown

**Chiriox** is the current Chief Apothecary of the mysterious and aloof Star Reapers Space Marine Chapter. Known by the title '*Nuix-Kestora*' or 'Lord Twister of Flesh', Chiriox is a veteran of countless warzones and a master fleshcrafter. However, he is also charged with other arts rather than mere healing - overseeing interrogations through the use of the darker aspects of the healing arts. As a master interrogator, Chiriox contrives inventively malignant punishments to extract confessions and is able to keep his subjects alive and lucid far longer than they wish to be. However, some within the upper echelons of the Chapter have come to believe that the constant use of these twisted surgical arts have slowly begun to corrode the Chief Apothecary's sanity. Although shunned and dreaded by the majority of his Chapter, Chiriox is nevertheless tolerated for his superior knowledge, though he is often feared and mistrusted by his battle-brothers.

## Background

Chiriox is the current Lord Apothecary of the Chapter. Chiriox is rarely seen on the field of battle, primarily residing inside the depths of the Nightspire. While undertaking the healing role similar to most Apothecaries, Chiriox is also the master of interrogations and and the darker sides of surgical arts. While he is skilled in the aspects of medical arts, Chiriox has been condemned for his unsanctioned experiments. Considered too bloodthirsty even to the hardest Reapers, Chiriox continues his craft with a delayed death sentence upon his head.

The Supernatural

The Supernatural are creatures in the town of Darkened Dawn that fall under many names and species. The main popular ones are Demons, Ghosts, Vampires, and Angels.

Angels are the only good species (if you consider angels and the holy good) listed in this round up of four, Ghosts are tortured souls who wander the Earth, needing closure. Demons are pure evil, hell spawn, and are hunted and hated by everyone but their own kind, with little sympathizers, and Vampires are monsters, cannibalistic in nature, forced to drink the blood of humans or animals to survive.
