Deathwatch - Notable Deathwatch Contributors: Hundreds of Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes have taken the sacred oath to tithe their warriors to the Deathwatch in times of need, and only one of them has been found wanting, its honour forever tarnished.Deathwatch Librarians are often selected from members of three Space Marine Chapters -- the Blood Angels, the Blood Ravens and the Solar Hawks, due to the large numbers of psychically-gifted battle-brothers found among these Chapters.Amongst those that have stayed true are numerous Chapters that the Deathwatch has come to rely on, several ancient and storied First Founding Chapters amongst them.Blood Angels - The sons of Sanguinius are experts in the use of master-crafted weapons and the launching of army-shattering assaults. Their Vanguard Veterans are an inspiring sight in the ranks of the Deathwatch.Crimson Fists - Though still recovering from a devastating Ork attack at Rynn's World, the Crimson Fists are famous for never giving up -- they still tithe warriors to the Deathwatch whenever the need arises -- especially to hunt Greenskins.Raven Guard - Stealth experts and ambushers without equal, the Raven Guard follow the shadowed path of Primarch Corvus Corax, bringing their strategic mastery and impeccable sense of timing to the fray.Howling Griffons - The heraldry of the Howling Griffons is a familiar sight to most watch captains. Successors of the Ultramarines, their valour is well-known, as is their dedication to duty.Salamanders - The Salamanders are heroic warriors possessed of a nobility and compassion that belies their fell and frightening personal appearance. They are excellent craftsmen all, both within the sphere of war and without.Flesh Tearers - Hailing from the primeval world of Cretacia, Flesh Tearers are aggressive close combat specialists famous for their devastating assaults. With chainsword and combat knife they carve apart the alien foe.Space Wolves - The Space Wolves are renowned for ferocity, courage and a hot-blooded approach to warfare. They are masters of the hunt, upholding the savage honour of Primarch Leman Russ in every kill-team they join.Silver Skulls - Unconventional in their approach to strategy, the Silver Skulls place great stock in portents and omens -- their mystical insights have proven a powerful tool in the war against the xenos threat.Imperial Fists - Some call the gene-sons of Rogal Dorn heroic, others obstinate. They always bring steely tenacity to the kill-teams they join. Masters of siegecraft, they are often the castellans and garrison sergeants of the Long Vigil.Ultramarines - Paragons of the Adeptus Astartes, the warriors of Ultramar cleave to the Codex Astartes penned by their primarch, Roboute Guilliman. It has won them the laurels of victory in wars beyond counting.Taurans - The Taurans have long been cloaked in mystery, their crusading fleets appearing only rarely in Imperial histories. Still they honour the tithe, sending staunch Veterans to stand amid the Deathwatch's ranks.Dark Angels - The Dark Angels Chapter has a tempestuous history that saw their homeworld of Caliban destroyed at the end of the Horus Heresy. Stern and pitilessly efficient, the Chapter's battle-brothers are well suited to the Deathwatch's goals, despite their intense penchant for secrecy and conspiracy.Brazen Claws - Once engaged, these successors of the Iron Hands will fight on without doubt or remorse, ignoring the most grievous wounds in order to win victory -- even should it cost them their lives.Minotaurs - The Minotaurs are a bombastic Chapter that uses thunderous violence whenever possible. Headstrong and bold, they are masters of the shock assault, rejoicing in the spectacle of war they cause.Novamarines - The Novamarines' homeworld of Honourum is dotted with giant statuary over which its battle-brothers stand sentinel. This experience of patient observation makes them ideally suited to scouting roles in the Deathwatch.White Scars - Recruited from the horsemaster tribes of Chogoris, the White Scars have a born affinity with mounted warfare. They carry the proud warrior tradition of Jaghatai Khan into the ranks of the Deathwatch.Knights of the Raven - Since coming to blows with the Aurora Chapter, this Raven Guard successor has sought to atone by fighting the encroaching Tyranids in every way it can.Iron Hands - The gene-sons of Ferrus Manus have always held metal as superior to flesh, and the Deathwatch has long felt the advantage of the clinical precision these masters of mechanised warfare bring to the fight against the xenos.Mortifactors - Hailing from a dark and cannibalistic culture, the Mortifactors are fierce fighters devoted to the Imperium's cause. Those in the Deathwatch often take skull trophies from the aliens they kill.Black Templars - A successor to the Imperial Fists, the Black Templars are on a permanent crusade against the enemies of Humanity. Their religious fervour and rare belief in the divinity of the God-Emperor is infectious, bolstering morale wherever they fight.
