Default The Shadow Hunters

The Revilers space marines are a second founding chapter of the Raven Guard. Their First company takes heavily from the teachings of Corax. The only armoured units they use are dreadnaughts. Though their parent legion was severly short on such treasured weapons as dreadnaughts and terminator armour, the Revilers were gifted with many suits upon their founding. During a battle alongside the Black Templars soon after the Second Founding, the first company made many daring teleport attacks and combat drops. Emperors Champion Sigsmund declared, “These mighty warriors strike with suddenness and ferocity, ruthlessly destroying their quarry without mercy. Truly, these shadow hunters are destined for glory equal to our own!”
The name stuck, and the first company has thereafter always been known as the Shadow Hunters. Their skill at teleportation is almost equal to the black templars founding chapter, the Imperial Fists. Their knowledge and usage of Terminator armour is likewise comparable to the Dark Angels Deathwing, though both chapters recognize the Deathwings true mastery. The Shadow Hunters have never had their own captain, instead are led directly, always, by the chapter master. The current Revilers Chapter Master is Ignacious Certo. A giant among giants, he is almost three meters tall. He is armed with the traditional weapon of the Revilers Masters, The Firespear. Which was, if legend holds true, forged by Corax himself. The spear, almost as long as an Astartes is tall, is only wieldable effectively in terminator armour. A normal human could barely lift the adamantium shaft.
