The beginnings of The Ravers Chapter are shrouded in mystery, nor are they really known but in the galactic north. Their home world, Sharkey, home of the 'forever people', rotates once per 4 Terra months and this is said to be the cause of the bright colours habitually used. Though this may have been the original reason, it has long changed.

The Forever People are a musical people, and the use of paints is ritualistic and said to protect against the things in the dark. The payers of these people are accompanied by a fast paced music, and during the season of the Rave, non-stop prayer is uttered to the Emperor.

The Ravers take much from their home world, and are adorned in colours of devotion. Much of their armour is dark to represent the season of the Rave, with the bright colours used during the rave painted on their hands, belt, knees and on the trim of their Paldrons. The Chapter badge is the smiling face of the beneficent Emperor.

The Raver have a slight fault in the hormonal glands, making them hyperactive and so they rarely field long range weapons, or those that do have long mastered is disposition. When this is mentioned, they declare that they are as perfected as the Emperor intended, to tinker and make them anything more or less would be heresy.

Before they wage war, each company of The Ravers dance in ceremony to the Emperor where holy incense is lit, and drinks made from the plants of Sharkey are drunk. One of those in the company will receive the blessing of visions from the Emperor, and will be declared the 'Shaman', after they have told the Chaplains of what they have seen.

The Shaman will be given the best armour and most ancient of weapon of the Company.

The Chapter, having a very ritualistic core, have a large recluciarchy and has gone hundreds of years at times without a Librarian cadre.

[Thoughts so far? I am stuck for ideas... WBB]

I don't know whether to laugh, facedesk, take it seriously...

 

At first I thought it was a spelling error, and was supposed to be the Reavers/Reavermarines. Then I saw the color scheme, and I said "Nope!".

 

I mean as a serious IA, most likely not going to work. But myself, as a fan of rave music and techno in general, love it!

I would have thought Ravemarines would have a predisposition for Las weaponry.. "Reach for the lasers" and all that. :)

 

Oh, and also here's a suggestion for their sworn enemies:
