The Desert Hawks are a loyalist non Codex-compliant Successor Chapter created from the lineage of the ancient and heroic White Scars during the 8th Founding. It's a small and endangered Chapter with only three ordinary companies left after the Soul War - a hard won victory almost 300 years ago against the Chaos Lord Haman Mal of Tzeentch and his daemons. This victory nearly destroyed the Chapter. Read More:

"A confession... why in the Lions name would I want that?" — Unknown Interrogator-Chaplain to a captured Fallen Angel. The Sable Pride is a semi-Codex compliant successor of the venerable and ancient Dark Angels Chapter, that was founded in order to hunt down a specific Fallen during M37. The Prides' history has been fraught with misfortune and treachery as they have sought to complete their duty to the Emperor and the Lion. The chapter even suffered its own civil war known as the War of the Two Prides, which damaged the psyche of the chapter and caused a slow turn away from the Unforgiven, who they now hold a tenuous relationship with, completely ignoring the word of the Supreme Grand Master and even firing upon fellow chapters. Despite this, the Pride still hunts the Fallen, but places far more importance on capturing their own traitors from the warband, Dothanes Pride. When found, neither of these groups are asked for confessions of crimes the chapter is fully aware of and instead emphasises excruciating torture before an eventual execution, in order to mirror the suffering inflicted upon the chapter. The chapter itself has become masters of siege and urban warfare and their specialised 2nd company, the Spearwing, is made up entirely of heavy armour such as Land Raiders and Predators. Today the Sable Pride is bloodied and beaten with its home and primary charge, the Pontifex Cluster, ravaged by war whilst great swaths of its territory lay in enemy hands. Even the chapter's reinforcements from the likes of the Ebon Angels come with hidden motives to investigate the Pride for treason against the Unforgiven and what other support they brought is underwhelming at best for the task at hand. Now the Sable Pride stands on the precipice of either their salvation through the impossible act of reconquering the Cluster or damnation by the hand of the Ebon Angels. Read More: Sable Pride
