CHAPTER: Storm Giants

GENE-SOURCE: Suspected Salamanders

OVERVIEW: Mired in mystery, almost nothing is known about their origins. Marines from this chapter have been observed to have enhanced strength and physique beyond what even the process of becoming a Space Marine does to the human body.

FIGHTING DOCTRINE: Close Range Fire-fights

HOMEWORLD: Unknown

PRIOR-HISTORY UPON ARMAGEDDON: During the Third War for Armageddon, the Storm Giants deployed five full companies to Armageddon to halt the massive Ork invasion led by Ghazghkull Thraka. Utilising rapid drop-pod assaults and bike operations across the toxic Ash Wastes, fighting closely alongside the Salamanders and White Scars. They distinguished themselves not just through martial prowess, but through their fierce dedication to protecting regular Imperial citizens and planetary defense forces from the greenskin onslaught.

The crack of shootas and the boom of Rokkits echoes all around...

..the chanting cries of Greenskins reach the sulfuric skies...

..the energy rises to a crescendo...

..waaAAA......!

CHAPTER: Marines Malevolent

GENE-SOURCE: Unknown

OVERVIEW: Loyal to the Emperor of Mankind and deeply dedicated to the eradication of all of the Imperium's enemies, the Marines Malevolent nevertheless have often shown a disturbing and callous disregard for their allies and the lives of the mortals of the Imperium - as long as their mission objectives are achieved.

FIGHTING DOCTRINE: Overwhelming use of force, with no remorse for Imperial Casualties.

HOMEWORLD: Unknown

PRIOR-HISTORY UPON ARMAGEDDON: The Marines Malevolent answer the call during the Third War of Armageddon. They relished the opportunity to purge the foul Xenos Orks with the purety of hate as their weapon.
They came to blows with allied Imperial forces just frequently however - with records of honour duels fought to the death marked against the Black Templars, and a confrontation between the ranking Marines Malevolent Captain in the warzone - Captain Vinyar - and the Salamander's Chapter Master Tu'shan.
The source of this last contention was the use of the mortal populace as bait to lure Orks towards a highly populated salvation camp, before the region was targetted by Whirlwind missile strikes. The loss of innocent life sent Tu'shan into a burning rage, but Vinyar remained callous and indifferent, citing the mortal's inability to protect themselves to be a damning weakness.

A deep rumble in the distance...

The tang of static fills the air...

Something comes our way...

CHAPTER: Salamanders

GENE-SOURCE: N/A - 1st Founding Chapter

OVERVIEW: Forged in the crucible of war, the Salamanders are flame-bearers and warrior-craftsmen who hail from the volcanic death world of Nocturne. This brotherhood of onyx-skinned guardians has fought stoically to defend the Imperium for ten millennia, welding master-wrought weapons to hammer the foe into oblivion.

FIGHTING DOCTRINE: Short-range firefights.

HOMEWORLD: Nocturne

PRIOR-HISTORY UPON ARMAGEDDON:
Led by their Chapter Master, Tu'Shan, six companies of the Salamanders were deployed to Armageddon. Some of these warriors had been seconded'to Battle Group Xerxarian before the outbreak of war, while others were rallied from distant war zones. They would be deployed across Armageddon in almost every theatre of the war. Strike Force Tu'Shan consisting of warriors from the First and Second Companies, led Operation Imperator's relief of Hive Infernus.

With the assistance of strike forces from the Storm Lords and Subjugators, Tu'Shan's sálamanders would brave the massed force surrounding Hive Infernus launching targeted strikes on the xenos hordes crossing the Stygies river, beginning a guerrilla campaign against the Orks in the Diablo Mountains and aiding Imperial forces seeking to recover the Infernus South Forge Complex. The Salamanders would find themselves particularly at home in the Diablo Mountains, for the catastrophic fighting that occurred during Angron's Season of Blood had resulted in rampant volcanic activity, turning the Diablo Mountains into a hellscape marred by rivers of lava and reminiscent of the Salamanders' home planet, Nocturne.
