Commissar Ibram Gaunt Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Did the space wolves have any Terran born marines un their companie? I am about to start a SW force and was wondering if this is an area of them I could explore but cannot find the answers I am looking for.

Hrolf the Cunning Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 They did have terran marines. The only one that I'm aware of that we've actually met is Ulvurul Heoroth, in Prospero Burns. He is noted as being one of the last Terran marines at that point. It seems like they either had a high rate of attrition or had relatively poor outcomes associated with the Canix Helix, as he was described as actually looking old for a marine despite being less than 200 years old. Hopefully Inferno will have more information on the topic Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325976-space-wolves-marines/#findComment-4505985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Bearclaw Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Bear in mind, Wolves always seem to age more obviously than other Marines. Heoroth in PB is noteworthy for being the first 'Longfang'. He's stated as being as old as it's possible for a Wolf to be, the eldest of the few remaining Terran Wolves. So there are probably still a few knocking around in the Legion, but not to the extent other Legions had, with entire Companies/Battalions of Terrans. This occurred because Russ was found early in the crusade (2nd found iirc?) and once reunited with their Primarch, the VI switched over to Fenris for almost 100% of their recruitment.

Commissar Ibram Gaunt Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Thanks for the replies. It makes sense at least a few a still hanging around. Hopefully the new book clears it up. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325976-space-wolves-marines/#findComment-4507429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
