Custodian Athiair Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Okay this is a bit of a random topic, but there is a contest going on at my local GW to paint up a Primaris Marine in the colours of a brand new Chapter and the winning model becomes the chapter for the store in the upcoming global campaign. I've got a few ideas banging around my head, one of which is a Chapter colour scheme based on an event in the history of the universe called "Cosmic Dawn" (basically when the first stars ignited). The colour scheme is gonna be black, and then gold's and silvers for starlight, but that's not the important thing. What I'm struggling with is naming the chapter. The only possible name I've come up with so far is The Dawnbringers, but this kinda leaves out the whole "Cosmic" thing. Is anyone out there good at naming things? Give me your best ideas!

Kua Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Ah, yes, you can try something with „astral“ as people are already used to reading “Astral Claws” so that it wouldn’t sound as lame as Cosmic~ or even Space~ (which would be really retro).

Reyner Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Cosmic Space Knights of Doom. They were a great Chapter :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/335848-cosmic-dawn-chapter-name-help/#findComment-4803379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinsanity Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Even though it doesn't quite address your dilema, and their originla scheme doesn't match yours (although you could reuse the chapter emblem, I assume), I kinda feel the Knights of Eternity somewhat fit the bill. You know, Eternity kinda linking them to the dawn of time? According to Lexicanum (here) they were apparently thought to have been destroyed, so the new chapter could be an attempt at honouring the chapter that died fighting the 'nids...

Freman Bloodglaive Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Prima Luce Stellarum is Dawn Stars in Latin, if Google's Latin translator works properly. Prima Stella is "The First Star" Prima Luce is "First Light". Aurora Mundi is "Cosmic Dawn" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/335848-cosmic-dawn-chapter-name-help/#findComment-4804169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
