They allow no psykers amongst them and employ many pariahs (psychic blanks) as battle brothers to combat them. The Black Orthodoxy chapter is a religious loyalist chapter with a strong connection to both the Ecclesiarchy and the Ordo Hereticus. Utilising fire, rad weapons, and chem munitions, they salt the earth and slay any in their path. Allegedly cursed, they specialise only in one form of combat Scorched Earth tactics. This Chapter's arrival is often considered an ill omen by their fellow Astartes, and as a sign of the end for many Imperial Citizens. The Basilisks are a secretive Chapter created from unknown origins and Founding. After slaying the World Eaters Chaos Champion Kronlovk, he proved himself a worthy leader and was giving the right to lead his very own Chapter after the Horus Heresy. The newly created Axe Brothers Chapter were placed under the command of Legion-Captain Roman, the former commander of the Ultramarines' 7 th Company. Forged in the fires of war and betrayal of the Horus Heresy, they were created following the subsequent sundering of the original Space Marine Legions during the Second Founding in 001.M32.


The Axe Brothers are a devoted, noble and mighty Chapter, having battled throughout their millennia long existence from their Ultramarines Legion roots, to the current date and timeline. Since then, the Armor Fiends have fought many sieges for and against the Imperium. Being forced in to combat with another chapter that simply were not ready for combat alone. Rushed out as a stop gap measure, their turn away from the Imperium was inevitable. The Armor Fiends are a crafty renegade chapter founded in the 20th founding. While originally meant to simply bolster Imperial forces on the border of Segmentum Obscura and the Ultima Segmentum, their reach wound up far exceeding their original purpose, partaking in some of the most pivotal campaigns and crusades in the late 41st millennia, including the Ulgroth Crusade, 13th Black Crusade, and the Indomitus Crusade. The Aetherian Warriors are a Codex compliant chapter derived from Blood Angels genestock and formed in the Twenty Fourth Founding in M40. A non-Codex Compliant fleet-based chapter designed to work with and meet the needs of Rogue Traders.
