Student Of Dorn Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Not sure if this belong in the Horus Heresy undergroup since it took place little later. But does anybody know who the first Chapter Master was, i am guessing that Dorn lead then until his sacrifice, but who took over? Name, Description or any info is appreciated Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230314-who-did-dorn-give-the-fist-to/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Tyler Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 The novel Space Marine by Ian Watson describes how each Chapter Master of the Imperial Fists engraves his name on the skeletal hands of the Primarch. In describing this, the novel lists: Bronwin Abremort Maximus Thane Kalman Flodensbog Ambrosian Spactor I'm not sure if these are listed in order (i.e., Abremort being Dorn's successor), though that seems like a good possibility. I don't know of any descriptions of Abremort, though I haven't read the latest Black Library offerings on the Imperial Fists (yet).

Pulse Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Ignore that novel, it has so much retardation written into that book that Space Marines seem an entirely diffferent species to the Space Marines we know and love.

Yes, elements of that novel are definitely outdated, being firmly based in the Rogue Trader era. However, there is quite a bit more that remains consistent with the current background information on the Imperial Fists. Indeed, the vast majority of the Index Astartes article on the Imperial Fists was based on that novel. So thanks anyways, but I'll take that novel over your opinion. :pinch: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230314-who-did-dorn-give-the-fist-to/#findComment-2766925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Task Force Gauntlet Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Yeah, Space Marine had older canon in it. But look at how much remains consistent with current 40k fluff. And I the the poster calling a novel retarded was referring to Sons of Dorn, which is very different from normal marine novels.

He is the first captain and the first Emperor's champion if I'm not mistaken Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230314-who-did-dorn-give-the-fist-to/#findComment-2768017 Share on other sites More sharing options...
