Storm Dragons



"Brothers, we are here today to wipe the xeno threat from our land. Bring blood to the fires and bring the storm in your heart and victory will surely find us huh?"

—Tribe Master Feng Jhan, The Battle for Ka'Barr

The Storm Dragons are a loyalist space marine chapter created on the forest planet, Eriee (known to natives as Ka'Barr) during the 9th founding to secure neighboring planets only to realize the xeno threat that was present on Eriee. They take pride in their traditions and have a certain hate for xenos who terrorized the tribes of Ka'Barr for centuries. They follow a variation of the Imperial Cult called the New Sun, which depicts an eternal sun as their god and the Emporer as a piece of the eternal sun that had broken off after xenos attacked it. The Storm Dragons do not view the Emporer as god rather the hand of god and apart of the Eternal Sun itself therefore the Emporers word is law. They take pride in their lineage of the White Scars and embrace savage brutality during the battlefield this has led to the Storm Dragons isolating themselves away from other chapters, the so called storm (a term commonly used for Storm Dragons in combat) is highly gruesome to the point where the enemy may begin to flee. However they also tend to take after the Salamanders, Ru, of the Storm saw a group of Salamanders saving civilians during a firefight with orks and it inspired him to begin a version of the New Sun where civilian lives were taken into account, this has led some trouble with older marines however newer ones seem to be handling it fine. It is said that there is the storm in every one of the space marines, and that its only a matter of time until the storm is let out. The Storm Dragons are known for their use of swords during combat along with their brutality.

History
The Storm Dragons were first created to ensure the Emporer's precense in the Eltor system, a planet system with three different planets, Hagorr a deserty hiveworld which relies on Hiskaar for rescources which is a mining world rich of natural resources, the final planet in the system would be Eriee or to the natives Ka'Barr. Eriee seemed to be a suitable chapter planet with it being completely covered in forests and plains and the only sign of intelligent life being the Five Tribes of Ka'Barr which they would draw their recruits from. The Storm Dragons were founded on 543.M35 and was given the task to bring order to these three planets, however it was soon discovered that a xeno threat was stilll present in Ka'Barr hidden away for centuries the xenos returned from the depths of the planet to destroy it. War broke out on the front of Ka'Barr but the xeno threat was soon nuetralized, or so they thought.
