My Brother,

 

This is Andre Constrito, 5th Company Commander of the Serpents of the Crimson Crux. As the Emperor's Divine Fortune would have it, we are currently en route to the Garren system.

 

Our detatchment numbers about 237 fighting men from several of the chapter's companies, and approximately 75 from our limited Veteran Company. Armored units are in small numbers at the moment, but we were able to spare three Predator-class tanks, and a Whirlwind-class as well. Honored Venerable Brother Pithin Marcello has been informed of the crisis of the Garren worlds, and has agreed to join the forces via drop-pod if his services are required. Along with the planetside fighting forces, we shall be lending the support of three Strike Cruisers: "Marcello's Hammer", "Fang of Retribution", and "Serpent's Fury". Also, we shall include the might of our Battle Barge "Python's Venom".

 

We are literally moments from entering Garren system space, and will join the rest of the crusade fleet on arrival.

 

I await our actual meeting, may the Emperor be with you.

 

Commander Andre Constrito, Serpents of the Crimson Crux, Adeptus Astartes.

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance Captain, my ship and men are at your disposal along with a contingent of Imperial assets under the control of Inquisitor Kreil of the Ordo Xenos, you may wish to know that we have been engaged in several minor conflicts with traitor legions and there heretical followers.

 

I have ordered the navigators for the fleet to begin an immediate course alteration for the Vengeance and we shall be arriving at the designated rendezvous point shortly, although only 100 of my brethren are present do not underestimate our willing ness in this conflict, soon the heretics shall know why it is not wise to allow an Errant so close to your lines

+++Thought of the Day: Heresy begets Retribution+++

 

My Lords,

As requested here is the information I have been able to collect from my investigation thus far on data file 219M/IMP.2630. The study subjects of this reference data-file is a little known chapter of the Adeptus Astartes called the Sons of Retribution. Following is all the data I have been able to collect and am able to transmit at the present time. I hope it is what was requested of me.

 

++Chapter Name: Sons of Redemption++

++Geneseed: Unknown, although it is rumored to be either that of the space wolves or the Salamanders++

++Homeworld: Expunged from all Imperial Record++

++Chapter Heraldry: Black and Green armor color scheme, but alternatives have been reportedly sighted at times. The chapter symbol is a sideways skull surrounded by a Halo++

++Motto: Momento Mori (Transl. Remember the dead, because one day you will be)++

++Battlecry: "Rejoice! For your sins shall be absolved through death!"

++Chapter Master: Isaiah the Chosen, High Lord of Ta'al++

++Founding:11th++

Origins

No one is sure of the Origins of the chapter. Either they have been purged, destroyed, classified or lost to the millenia.

History

The chapter was founded in the earlier part of the 11th founding, when the Emperor and the Adeptus Minostorum decided there was the need to create a new chapter in the Segmentum Pacifica to deal with the dual threat of xeno encroachment and of traitors and heretics of Chaos. The Chapter's original homeworld, while no longer in imperial records was, legend says, a feral world with a population of approxamately 100,000 inhabitants, and drew its ranks from the local clans. Even though the homeworld has since been purged from all Imperial records, we can compile the facts together; the only feral world with a population that size in the Segmentum Pacifica at that time was Ta'al, so we can infer that the chapter's homeworld was Ta'al, however, this is mere speculation. It would, however make sense, because, Ta'al was, after all, over run by a combination xeno-traitor-heretic horde in 249M.162 while the Sons of Redemption wer fighting in the Corian Campaign, which could explain why their homeworld was expunged from all Imperial records. As of time to date, their is not many complete records of the campaigns that the chapter has participated in. However, there is ample records to prove that they have fought valiantly in the Corian Campaign, the Second and Third wars for Armageddon, and are currently deployed in the Garren system, preparing for a crusade against chaos.

Beliefs

The Battle-Brothers take the title "brother" literally. Each and every marine treats each other marine as if he were his own flesh and blood. Also, the fact that they come from a feral world based on the Clan social structure, I would not doubt in the least that many of the battle-brothers actually are related. However, this belief that they are all equal brothers, all members of the same clan is taken very seriously by the marines. When a new initiate is making his transformation, his final step to battle-brotherhood is twofold: A midnight vigil to the God-Emperor whom they revere and follow with a piousness and fervor that is nearly unmatched, and a ritual ceremony where the blood of all the battle-brothers is mixed with that of the new initiate, and vise-versa, thus literally making each one the other their bloodbrother. This ceremony is called the "Rebirth" and is usually accompanied with ritual scarring, or tatooing, or some other kind of ritual self-mutilation. Rites like these are adapted from the primitive culture of their lost homeworld. The Sons of Redemption believe so strongly in the power of heredity and bloodlines, that many of the current marines are the descendants of the original Sons of Redemption (because, unlike other chapters, they are allowed to wed and father sons). The current Chapter Master is the decendant of the original Chapter Master, and cheiftan of the Clan.

Organization

Baisically a codex Astartes chapter with a few minor deviances, most of them due to cultural influences.

Combat Doctrine

Very tactically sound all around chapter. Readily able to adapt and overcome to the various battlefield situations as they arise.

Let it be known, Chapter Master Lord Page Victus Adam, Lord of Pain, Grand Master of the Legions, Keeper of the Winged Sword, Enemy of Chaos, First of the Council, Steward of the Realms of Pain, Bearer of the Word, Bringer of Pain, and Liberator of the Ring World Pathrius etc... has declared a muster to join the Garren Crusade.

 

Answering the call are Lord Ira Yulani of the Blood Stalkers with 76 marines from the Blood Stalkers, Pain Bringers and the Sun Lords. Chaplain Dremus Cyrn with 32 fighters of Heart Renders and the Ash Warriors. Paladin Kirstenson Pugna of the Broken Hearts commanding 29 brothers in arms of the Broken Hearts. Cleric Coeo Caedes and 17 others of the Crimson Death. Prince Hostlan Gurren with 16 warriors of the Guardians of Thannelus. Also comes Templar Pilumus Perenius of the Praetorians with 13 warriors of the Guardian. And brother Librarian Bardiel Fas leading 11 men of the Dusk Walkers in the name of Lord Erus Lilith.

 

A total of 201 marines lead by War Leader Crasicus Exuro, Champion of the Lord of Pain, Commander of the Warriors of Pain, Hand of the Master, Conqueror of Thul, Ramel, Karrack'al'Raen, Dresdeir etc... accompanied by five of the Lord's Immortals and seconded by Lord Ira Yulani in a holy Crusade against the traitors threatening the Garren System.

Lord Xerxian,

 

We are preparing to assault the outer worlds of the Ricousis and Turain and my own force will be making planet fall on Ricousis within a few hours, I will be out of contact for sometime but I will endevour to inform you of our success at the earliest possible moment.

I have advised Fleet Master Piper to move the Chaper Task Force to the specifed co-ordinates near the Vengence. I look forwards to discussion of Mission parameters and Strike Priority Assignments with my esteemed Brothers of the Adeptus Astartes. I am certain that with the abundance of Brother Marines in this sector, that the Crusade will achieve it's goals with dispatch and precision. Much must be discussed in reguards the Projected Force Totals and Unit Types we shall be facing, as well as assignment of priority targets and which Companies of the Blessed Brotherhood shall recieve the challenge of facing the Great Enemy first. My doubts are non-existant about our combined success, if we quickly establish a chain of command and good inter-chapter communications. I suspect that the aide of the various ]I[ forces in and near the Garren System shall prove to quite helpful in ways that shall surprise us.

 

Strike True and Fast, for the Glory of HIM who is the Great Lion of Terra.

+++Thought for the day: When confronted with the question "Why kill the Xeno?" ... think "Why not kill the Xeno.."+++

 

 

This is Veteran Sergeant Celruda.. X Company 1st Detachment Local PDF forces, defending Outpost 426 on the planet Ulexis. At dawn a attack on our position occured where servants of the plague god Nurgle came with no warning. Our sentries were able to notify us in due time and organise a defence but the attack was fronted by a mighty captain with insect like wings and a large hidious weapon.

 

The zombie like creations took all of our firepower and kept coming, and before long they were upon our position and swamped our outer defences. I resounded the call to the defence to the main courtyard. It is here where we staged our last stand and the large captain was upon me, about to bring his weapon to bear as he and his marines turned away from us and began firing to where they came from.

 

What I saw I met with equal dread and elation, everywhere I looked I saw the plagued ones falling, in front of me where the Plague Lord was I saw him taking a large sweep of his weapon. A split second later a large crack was heard and a large flash of white light occured as the lord was sent flying through the air and smashed against the large bulkhead a few metres fo my left, his belly armour cracked wide open and led there motionless, pus and any number of leaking substances coming from the huge gaping wound.

 

Where he once stood was now a large marine clad in dark green and cream coloured armour, who had in his right arm a huge dark green hammer. He extended his hand to mine and helped me up from my trip and near death. As he did so a marine lunged at him from his left and he kicked him away, aimed his double barrelled weapon at the marines head and opened fire, the marines head exploding in a sea of pus and opened infected wounds.

 

It only lasted another ten seconds or so before the skirmish was over, Before I could come to terms with the destruction our saviours had vanished. I send message that the outpost is still intact thanks to the last minute reinforcements, though after their effectiveness we stand weary of another counter attack.

 

I am sending a message for possible reinforcements or evacuation... Celruda out

Vengeance, an Executioner class mobile dock and a dozen or so warships of the Astartes floated silently against the black of space. The stars shown as brilliant points of hope. Each one represented another system that the Emperor of Mankind would bless with the rule of the Imperium. The stars shown with malice. Each one represented another system that might be infested with the filth of Xenos, corruption of chaos, or the treachery of heresy.

 

In the deep blackness, all of space shuttered. A great stream of light burst through from somewhere else, shattering a mile radius of space. Out of this rent, two bright yellow strike cruisers slid along the tunnel of light. As abruptly as it appeared the area of shattered space reknitted itself. The dark of space, again, enfolded all the ships present.

Captain Iziha of the Warriors of Vengance watched the Oracles arrive, it would be good to see his old freinds from that chapter again. Inquisitor Kreil was another matter, he liked the Errant of Redeption perfectly well. But that dam Inquisitor had persuaded them that the Warriors of Vengance were xenos controlled cowards.

He sighed and steped away from the veiwing port, the Errants had arrived shortly befor the Oracles, they were on a head hunt already.

 

--------------------------------------------------------

 

The Warriors of Vengance marines greeted the Oracles warmly. The feral natured Warriors, clad in their green armour, laughed and shouted as they greated their freinds in a chapter they new so well. Inquisitor Kreil watched from a balcony, the Oracles had fallen for the Warriors of Vengance's trap and were being insnared without them knowing it. He sighed and turned, he was shocked to find a bolt pistol pointing at his face.

'This has gone to far Kreil' said the stranger

'what has' replied Kreil

'your meddleing in my affairs'

'I have never meddled, my master'

'you lie' spat the chaos marine, 'but I will spare you this time'.

With that the Alpha Legion warrior sprung away, like a cat, into the vent above.

Kreil shook his head and returned to his watching.

 

------------------------------------------------------------

 

The council were arguing, the space marine commanders that had arivved were debating what to do next, when Kreil and a squad of Errants of Redeption marines stormed in. The assembled Captains and chapter masters stood up in indignation as Kreil pulled out his bolt pistol.

He spoke 'In the name of the Emperor, I arrest Captain Iziha of the Warriors of Vengance and the cammanding officers of the Oracles, don't resist and you may be spared'

Iziha, who had remained seeted, stood up and walked over to Kreil, he could sense the mans fear.

He drew his bolt pistol and said, 'what wouls this be?'. Suddenly he lept over Kreil's head and pressed his armour ejection button, then he riped open Kreil's chirt, on his chest was a flowing mass of chaotic runes.

'Were did you get those horrible scars of faithful Inquisitor' Iziha mocked.

Kreil snarled then suddenly began to chant, Iziha simply steped back,

'Escape, but I will hunt you down Dahs'raza'

'you will be the one hunted down'.

Thenthe daomon thing diapeared and the room was silent. all eyes on Iziaha,

'What' he said.

Commander Castiel paced on the observation deck of the imperial vessal that was transporting his company to the staging point, his wyvern skin cloak billowed out behind him. looking out he shook his head at the heraldry of the chapters that had already arrived, a small shame welled up in him for the price that his chapter had to pay in the service of the emperor and securing thier homeworld from the forces of chaos, but he quickly banished it, such things would not serve him here.

 

"Let them judge the wyverns on thier prowess and valour on the fields of battle, not on thier lack of battle barges, let them measure us by the piles of the emperors enemies we shall stack to the heavens." he thought as the ship pulled up to the docking bay.

 

" Sir, We have arrived." a small voice broke the silence trying to get Castiel's attention, he slowly turned to face the young man and just nodded still lost in his thoughts.

Brother-captain Ragtreka walked curtly through the metal corridors, looking around. He stepped into the large, round hall where several other captains of the Astartes were standing, and looked around.

"My brothers are ready to strike. Just say the word," he said to Captain Iziha.

What the hell was that? :(

 

I'm sorry but thats a sucky bit of narrative.. a alpha legion wouldn't have just come from nowhere onto a imperial ship.. come on think about it... a imperial ship would have guards everywhere... especially a inquisitor!!!!!

 

Hm... u should REALLY rethink that bit .. i mean seriously that has no meaning anywhere ... :(

I agree with Kobra, i'm not involved in this but that piece was just ridiculous. Sprang away into the air vent? what is he a tyranid? why didn't anyone shoot at him? why the heck did the loyalist call him master? It makes no sense whatsoever, a random scene which fits in nowhere else. I'd remove it. Worst of all this Kriel just ignored the chaos warrior instead of ordering him hunted.

if the chapter who's ship he is on is part of the charade, then it would not be difficult at all for him to stow away. that being said, springing into the air vent was goofy... but not altogether rediculous... i guess.

 

see you at the table.

go easy guys, sheesh. do we need to be this mean about it. and remember, it's his project... if you don't like it don't read it.

 

kriel called the alpha legion marine master... why would he want him to be hunted, and more importantly if you read the rest of the post kriel was possessed by a daemon, so... i'm fairly certain he's on chaos' side. as for the alpha legion guy... if the chapter who's ship he is on is part of the charade, which the post certainly leads us to believe, then it would not be difficult at all for him to stow away on board. that being said, springing into the air vent was goofy... but not altogether absolutely rediculous... i guess.

 

see you at the table.

What I'd suggest for this project is to co-ordinate your efforts towards creating some coherent fluff.

 

Probably the easiest way is do that is using MSN, AIM or even email... come up with a basic plotline or even a few solid ideas on where you want this going then co-ordinate on the fluff writing itself. I'm assuming captain fuzzball has some idea where he wants this to go, so it's important that he share that with the rest of the project members - collaborative work is always much easier when you're all singing from the same (battle) hymn sheet! :(

 

The second point I'd like to make is proof reading. With the number of people involved in the project, there's bound to be at least a couple who are willing to proof read your work before you post it - it makes something like this much easier to read if there isn't a spelling mistake every few lines... :(

I agree with RT....the Aegyptus Astartes project has taken leaps and bounds since we started working more on it outside the B&C using MSN and the like. The ability to communicate in real time makes ideas come together faster and better. You will get instantaneous feedback on your ideas. I suggest you take that step wholeheartedly, any of the other members of the AA will back me up on this.

The over sized Chaplain stood in the middle of the Emperor's Right Hand's observation deck, his steely gaze, fixed on the Mobile Dock Vengeance. Even though Castus wasnt at the meeting himself, news had traveled quickly amoungst the fleets, and it troubled him greatly. If a person of Kriel's stature and power had become corrupted, then Chaos's reach seemed to be endless in this system. He had informed his Lord Inquisitor, Xenthor of what had happened and already he had Cheif Librarian Kane and his followers do a fleet wide search for any signs of taint. Though no reports had come in of any amoungst his chapters ships, he had no doubt, where there was one, there will be others.

 

The familiar sound of the doors to the observation deck sliding open cracked the silence, " Chaplain Castus, Lord Inquisitor Xenthor's support fleet has arrived, and has met up with the rest of the fleet. Fleet Master Markus has already begun to bring the fleet into the system. " Castus turned and looked at the man, standing in silence once again, contimplating on if he should risk the rest of the fleet to this sudden show of events. "Inform Fleet Master Markus to change course, and position the fleet near Epistolary Terrem's ships. And remind Markus not to interfere with Cheif Librarian Kane's investiagtions, Tell him that if he does that he will have a meeting with me. Now go..." The man quickly saluted and left the observation deck. Silence once again filling the area, leaving Castus alone with his thoughts.

Right everynoe a bit of explanation.

 

The leaping bit is a bit odd, but I couldn't put it in any other way. If kreil was coruptp then the Alpha legion could have used him to get into the ship ,it will all come together.

 

@RT: Yep you are right there, but My computer is old and that kind of stuff isn't good for it, so I'm going to try to use the bolter&chainsword messenger.

(also I realy will start proof reading posts now)

 

 

cheers all

hope that kind of explained it

Brother Captain Janos studied the large view-screen before him, not turning when the hatchway behind him hissed open with the sound of pressure relief from an ailing pneumatic piston. The large space marine studied the data codes arrayed upon the surface of the screen and tried to absorb the majesty of what he was seeing. Dozens of chapters had sent representives to participate in this holy crusade to reclaim the worlds of the Garren System. The captain more felt than heard someone slip up beside him and spoke without turning his head to the new comer to the bridge's hectic activity. "Greetings Brother Domik." Janos waved in the general direction of the screen before them. "An inspiring sight my old friend, but..."

 

Senior Chaplain Domik grunted a soft sigh and nodded his head, also watching the light codes crawl across the screen and ignoring the actions of the dozens of servitors performing their appointed tasks as the Battle Barge Simba's Paw stalked closer to the Executioner class mobile dock and it's attendant ships. "I know Brother Janos, I feel it too." He glanced at Janos' stern visage and returned his gaze to the large assembly of ships upon the screen. "The Great Foe is here my old friend. And if that were not enough, many of these chapters have never fought together before. I pray that the Great Lion of Terra guide our decisions, in the days to come, that we do not find ourselves facing two enemies at once."

 

Janos nodded and seemed to be lost in thought for several moments as the ships under his command moved ever closer to the mobile dock. "My only fear is that no un-due influence affects the Inquisional Forces here. The damage ONE such could do to the fragile trust between the many factions here is almost un-imaginable and I shudder to think what two would do." Janos turned to the Brother Chaplin and smiled. "I fear not for our forces. Our gene-seed is pure, our faith absolute, and the Great Lion who is HIM upon the throne of Terra will guide us in our quest."

 

Domik nodded in agreement and reached to one side to brush the mane of the Simba lying beside his leader. "Even the Simbas feel the building tension my Brother. They hunger for the Hunt and are eager for Battle against the Foe."

 

The large Simba rumbled a soft purr and nudged both the Chaplin's and his Leader's hands with his nose, the 5 centimeter long claws of his front paws skreeking across the deck plates as he clawed the decking as if slowly ripping the entrails from some imagined prey.

 

Janos looked down at his Companion/Bodyguard and smiled. "Easy Samson. The Prey will be in our grasp soon enough." The large marine's gauntleted hand caressed between the Simba's ears gently.
