Created using the [[Space Marine Chapter Creation Tables]]. A chapter founded using doctrine of the [[Raptors]] and [[Space Wolves|Wolf Scouts]], making them into the urban ghosts of siege-fighters. Commonly fighting against Tau and Dark Eldar attacks, the Black Sentinels wear their opponents down with lightning-fast close-quarter ambushes. Their doctrine emphasizes getting a good hit in then hightailing it, which often comes into conflict with the "Eye for an Eye" mentality of the [[Order of the Waning Dawn]]. During joint operations, Black Sentinel Battle Brothers are often seen bum-rushing it to their next rally point with a still-shooting Sister stuffed under his arm. Needless to say, this only makes them stealthier in the Orkiest way possible.

== Heraldry ==

The Black Sentinels use a Rook taking flight as their icon. Their armor is usually painted in a camouflage of olive and red to blend into their native cityscape. The red is close enough to the color of dried blood that it actually works.

==Recruits==

Any male on Dersok 12 can volunteer for Space Marine candidacy from the age of 10 standard years onwards, and are actively encouraged to do so. The training is grueling, but those who pass are put up for review by a triumvirate of the Head Chaplain, a Veteran Assault Marine, and the Chief Apothecary. Even those who do not pass the board are highly respected, and are often encouraged to try again until they grow too old. Females are permitted to undergo the training process as well, but with the understanding that they are not in the running for Space Marine candidacy. Many Sisters of Battle in the Order of the Waning Dawn completed this training, which both goes a long way towards maintaining their relations yet simultaneously confuses the brotherhood over how reckless the sisterhood's tactics are.

The Black Sentinels also run the Dersok PDF training facility, and often use this course as a proving ground for potential recruits. Those selected are relieved of their obligations and undergo a significantly harsher round of trials, most involving live-fire exercises against invading Xenos. Considering how often the Doran J’Kaara Demlok Outpost, Broken Alter Kabal, and Da Mad Hoodz Freebooters attack, there's plenty of practice.
