Editing Life Bringers (section)

==''Valetudinarium''==

The massive vessel which acts as the flagship of the XIIth legion is unlike those of the other astartes fleets, being an artifact of the Dark Age of Technology. The ship itself is monumental and, before the discovery of the legion's primarch, utilized its unique and powerful weapons systems to devastate many planets with initial bombardments. The ship was repurposed by Johannes Vrach to suit his own ends, eventually becoming known the largest and most advanced medical research and treatment facility in the Empire. Though it does still have formidable offensive and defensive weapons, the Valetudinarium is never willingly brought into the fire zone, as it's purpose as a center for scientific work is paramount to the primarch.

The mammoth ship contains city-sized wings dedicated to curing the many diseases which afflict mankind, these hospitals are the front line in Johannes war against disease and are constantly abuzz with activity. The genetic engineering labs of the High Genetors which maintain the legion's gene-seed are second only to those of the Emperor himself, their research into designing hardier and more useful life is unique among the legions. Biochemical weapons labs are constantly at work developing new and more efficient ways to eradicate the impure, the nightmarish scouring compounds and tailor-made viri that the Life Bringers employ are developed here.
