Ragnar's Great Company Organisation

Just who is in it according to fluff?

Of course there is Ragnar Blackmane, but who are the Wolf Priest(s), Rune Priest(s), Iron Priest, and Wolf Guard?

 

Currently without my editions of the first two omnibus'. So anybody got any ideas?

 

Also how many Dreadnaughts are typically assigned to each Great Company?

I know in the first one it only talks about one Grey Hunter and I think 3 Blood Claws by name there are in Ragnar's Company I would have to look them up because I don't know their names off the top of my head and I don't know about what is in the second one.

Strictly speaking, there aren't any Wolf Priests, Rune Priests, Iron Priests or Dreadnoughts in Ragnar's Great Company. These are all drawn from the Great Wolf's company as needed, so there won't be any 'standard' complement.

 

I haven't read any of the omnibus though, so I'm afraid I can't help you regarding the names of the priests etc.. that are mentioned, if that's what you're after.

There is a Wolf Priest that is mentioned in the Ragnar novels by the name of Sigurd, he is described as being attached to Ragnars company and serves with them for some time. Also there is mention of some of Ragnars wolf guard. Leif and Einar were described as leading Grey hunter packs, and Petar was leading a pack of scouts. There is also mention of an Iron Priest by the name of Jurgan being attached to Ragnars company. Also a wolf guard called Hogun who succumbed to the wulfen curse and slaughtered the pack he was leading, however Ragnar pulled him back from the brink of oblivion and now Hogun still serves with Ragnar. Nice oppurtunity to use "mark of the Wolfen". Cant remember any Rune priests serving alongside Ragnar when he is a Wolf Lord, but there is mention of a Rune priest called Aldrek, who was serving the great wolf at the time. I will try to skim read my Ragnar novels over the next day or so and see what other info I can post if it helps.

Really appreciate the help. Thanks. :cuss

Njal Stormcaller was typically assigned to support Ragnar Blackmane as the Rune Lord and advisor to the young Wolf Lord. For Wolf Priests, Ulrik the Slayer was known to have been Ragnar's mentor, but I don't recall any fluff stating explicitly that he accompanied his Great Company once he became a Wolf Lord.

 

Sources for this include old RT era (like White Dwarf 157) and 2nd Edition fluff.

Oh yeah I had forgotten about the White Dwarf Short stories/blurb. Yeah there was a White Dwarf short story where Ragnar dropped onto a planet that was infested with Tyranids with his company, ( in the days when a Gaunt was known as a hunter slayer), he was accompanied by both Ulrik and Njal. It also mentioned a grizzled old sargeant called Hakon who died during the course of the story. There were other members of his company that were described - Wolf Guard Egil and Gunnar (who used a Missile launcher) -" Lukkan, the impetuous sergaent of blood claw squad Blade"( who were equipped with Jump packs). Brother Jann the Iron Priest, Long Fang Hrothgar, Karl "youngest of the Blood claws". Some of the early White Dwarf Blurb contradicts the novels but still usable I guess.

The good old grenade in the carnifex mouth story. Oh how I miss that.

Sven and Strybjorn are in Ragnars Company, but not sure if they are dead or not by the time he makes it to Wolf Lord. Lexicanum says Wolf Guard Egil went through basic training with Ragnar, so I'd guess Egil was changed to Sven or Strybjorn in the books.

This is how things seem to be forming up so far then (thanks goes to all who have contributed thus far):

Did I miss any so far?

Now for Lukas the Trickster, I understand he is not in Ragnar's company, but if I remember the fluff right he really isnt a part of anyones company as he is considered so wild, he just shows up and goes on missions with various companies if they will have him.

 

Or am I wrong in this?

Or am I wrong in this?

No he is part of one of the Companies I just can't remember the name of the Wolf Lord but he thinks what Lukas does is really funny so that is why he wants him.

FROM LEXICANUM Before his induction into the Space Wolves, Lukas's was a near legendary figure amongst Fenris' womanfolk, famous for sharing a dozen beds in a single night. Following his induction, he has gained something of a cult following amongst the Blood Claws after "accidentally" locking an Inquisitorial genotax delegation in a grox breeding pen while the creatures were in season, and risking death when he spiked the arrogant Wolf Lord Hrothgar's ale with the concentrated venom of a bloat-toad.

 

So might I infere that Hrothgar is the company that Lukas is a member of?

 

Also I included the part about the womanfolk to lay that arguement to rest here. It was before he was a Space Wolf.

I must say I'm surprised, when the Space Wolves: A Comprehensive History is right here on the site.

Wow fancy that... Never noticed it, my bad. Great resource.

You gotta feel sorry for Wolf Guard Pack Leader Magnus, like being in the British Army during WWII, and being called Adolph Hitler. lol.Someone got some stick! And before someone winges yes I know the origin of the name.

Never noticed it myself.

But here is my revised list.
