Doom Legion - Judgement: Following the events of the Abyssal Crusade, the eyes of the Adeptus Terra fell upon the erstwhile kin of the Doom Legion that were still "loyal" to the Imperium. When the Doom Legion had been found wanting by the apostate Basillius, only six companies from their Chapter deployed with the Abyssal Crusade to face the horrors of the Eye of Terror.The other four companies remained on the star fortress Faithful's Deliverance to maintain their eternal vigil over the Elusian Maze asteroid field. Had the entire Chapter deployed, there was the very distinct possibility that they might have all fallen to the corrupting influence of the Dark Gods.The Adeptus Terra sent an Inquisitorial representative to speak with Chapter Master Konstantos and to present him with their demands. Just as the Chapter Master wished to prove his Chapter's honour and loyalty, so did the Adeptus Terra wish to clear the Doom Legion of any blemish on its record.The tests would be rigorous, the sanctions harsh. Had the Loyalist elements of the Doom Legion not been entrusted with the stewardship of the Elusian Maze, their homeworld would already have felt the squeeze of the tithes.The Inquisitorial representative rendered the demands of the Adeptus Terra unto the Doom Legion's Chapter Master. The Inquisitor's honour detail then loaded the precious cargo of the requisitioned gene-seed onto a shuttle. There was enough genetic material present to create fifty Battle-Brothers -- Space Marines who would be sorely needed should the Chapter hope to rebuild after this disaster.But there was no arguing. The Adeptus Terra held the authority of the Emperor, and the Doom Legion would obey. The Inquisition could not be sure of anything until the gene-seed had been tested.Konstantos knew the procedure. Should his Chapter's stock be found wanting, there would be great challenges ahead of them. Displaying the Doom Legion's famously inhospitable nature to the meddling Inquisitor, the Chapter Master did as he was bidden, then rushed the Inquisitorial representative off his star fortress.Only after the Inquisitor had departed could Konstantos breathe a little bit easier. The Doom Legion had been all but forgotten by the Imperium for so long, left in its distant outpost, fighting endless wars against the denizens of that accursed sector.And this was the thanks they received -- scrutiny and accusations. After the Inquisitor departed, Konstantos made his way towards a chamber deep within the bowels of the star fortress. He had kept in-waiting an emissary of sorts. The emissary was garbed in dark green robes, like the Chapter's own ceremonial dress, but stained and tattered, reeking of death.It was former First Captain Viktarion -- once the first amongst the Doom Legion, but now fallen to the corrupting influence of the Plague God Nurgle. He had invoked the Chapter's ancient tradition of sanctuary in order to parley with his former brethren.Konstantos only wished the fallen Space Marine to be far from his sight, so as not to remind him how far the mighty had fallen. The emissary of Chaos made one final offer to the resolute Chapter Master; join their cause, reunite lost brother with brother, and they would gladly follow him as they did before. They would rebuild not just the Chapter, but a Legion in truth as well as in name, worthy to stand beside those mighty warriors of old, who still fought the Long War.Konstantos rendered his decision -- the emissary was to leave his sight, never to speak the name of the Chapter again. His lost brothers were not Doom Legion, they were now the "Vectors of Pox." They were nothing more than filthy Traitors and Heretics, and Konstantos would no longer suffer his fallen brother's presence.The Chapter Master had some of his warriors escort the so-called "emissary" to his waiting ship. Returning to the bridge, Konstantos and Chaplain Vincenzo watched Viktarion, once Captain of the 1st Company, board his sleek freighter and depart the hangar of the star fortress.They watched as the Renegade vessel flew out into the void, and as it was blown apart by a fusion warhead from the Faithful's Deliverance. The emissary had the Doom Legion's answer -- they would stand with the Emperor, as always.
