“Oh
mighty
emperor,
bless
my
sword
to
slay
the
heathens
in
your
name.”
–Dulce
Benita
Maria,
Imperial
Guardsman
Akzetiac
is
a
jungle-‐covered
world,
which
was
conquered
less
than
two
hundred
years
ago
by
the
Imperial
forces.
The
natives
were
quickly
brought
to
the
Emperors
light,
in
life
if
willing
or
in
death
if
not.
It
is
now
covered
by
cathedrals,
shrines,
temples,
holy
order
buildings
and
holy
sites
and
has
become
a
Cardinal
world
in
this
record
short
time.
The
world
is
ruled
by
Cardinal
Claudia
Ángel
Mingo
and
she
rules
it
with
strict
force
and
little
acceptance
for
unorthodox
belief.
The
PDF
force
of
the
world
is
made
purely
from
religious
orders
but
their
guardsmen
are
not
purely
taken
from
the
PDF.
Cardinal
Mingo
keeps
a
large
military
academy,
The
Schools
of
Conquest,
at
the
planet
and
trains
high
numbers
of
guardsmen
there
to
be
sent,
both
as
tithes
but
more
commonly
as
volunteers
for
crusades
in
the
Imperiums
honour.
The
Akzetiac
Conquistadors
as
the
guardsmen
are
known
are
given
high
quality
equipment
to
allow
them
to
effectively
claim
worlds
in
the
name
of
the
Emperor.
Obsidian
Vengeance
“Have
faith
man
of
the
Imperial
Guard,
for
Space
Marines
stand
by
your
side.”
–Brother-‐Sergeant
Macharius
As
if
their
strong
belief
in
the
Emperor
wasn’t
enough
to
make
them
arrogant
and
over
confident
a
Space
Marine
Chapter
has
also
chosen
to
work
closely
with
them
and
recruit
battle
brothers
from
their
aspirants.
This
chapter
is
known
as
the
Obsidian
Vengeance
and
they
have
their
fortress
monastery
in
a
nearby
system
at
the
dead
world
of
Blackstone-‐8.
The
Obsidian
Vengeance
was
created
for
the
Crusade
that
conquered
Akzetiac
and
several
other
systems.
Their
founding
father
was
the
scout
sergeant
Obsianus
of
the
Ultramarines
chapter,
he
was
known
as
a
father
figure
who
helped
space
marine
scouts
become
real
marines
through
helpful
tips
and
wise
support.
His
views
on
leadership
have
formed
the
chapter,
he
claimed
that
leaders
needed
to
treat
their
troops
as
loved
sons
and
that
an
aspirant
should
receive
support
and
aid
from
his
leader,
letting
the
trials
come
from
his
foes
rather
than
his
friends
and
due
to
his
beliefs
all
scout
sergeants
are
now
chosen
from
amongst
the
first
company
to
take
this
role
and
this
is
seen
as
a
great
honour.
Obsianus
was
lost
half
a
century
after
the
founding
of
the
chapter
during
a
warp
voyage
and
was
never
seen
again,
though
many
battle
brothers
believe
he
could
still
return.
The
chapter
recruits
space
marines
from
the
Akzetiac
Conquistador
aspirants
and
they
work
closely
with
them,
both
in
battle
and
in
training.
There
are
always
Obsidian
Vengeance
marines
at
the
Schools
of
Conquests
training
the
whiteshields
and
choosing
the
best
candidates
from
their
numbers
to
become
initiated
into
their
chapter.
The
Chapter
has
strong
religious
beliefs
that
sit
well
with
most
of
the
Imperium
but
not
with
many
other
Space
Marine
chapters.
They
follow
the
faith
as
dictated
by
the
Ecclesiarchy
almost
perfectly
and
with
few
exceptions,
they
see
the
Emperor
as
a
god
and
they
revere
most
saints
as
divine.
They
accept
orders
from
the
ecclesiarchy
and
place
these
orders
above
those
given
by
any
other
organisation.
The
names
of
the
Battle
Brothers
are
taken
from
Imperial
Saints
and
heroes
and
they
have
a
particular
fondness
of
adapting
the
names
of
the
Primarchs
in
this
manner.
