Marauding Sons

The Warband known as the Marauding Sons is a large collection of space marines consisting mostly of those from the World Eaters, Night Lords, and Iron Warriors legions all of whom have pledged themselves to Abaddon the Despoiler, the Black Legion, and to the ideals of the Long War. United under the leadership of the Chaos Lord Kraal, the Gladiator, they have spent millennia raiding and pillaging the worlds of the Imperium playing their part in what they see as the Imperium's inevitable demise.

The Warband was originally in the darkest gladiatorial arenas of Commorragh, home to the vile and sadistic Drukhari. There in those bloody places of contest Kraal together with Xaverax, the Mad and Vaskil Basilisk each the leader of the remnants of their own bands. So it was that the trio of Chaos Lords and their forces banded together and fought their way out of that horrid city in the webway.

Xaverax and Vaskil both pledged themselves to Kraal, who in turn appealed to the bitterness they held towards both the Imperium and their own primarchs. It was not long until they appeared in the court of the Black Legion, bending their knee to the Warmaster Ezekyle Abaddon. Pledging their loyalty and their aid in the long war, eager to play their own part in the destruction of the Imperium of Man. So they have continued to do so, for thousands of years.
