Editing Chapter of the Forlorn Hope (section)

==Founding==
     "We were outcast, no legion to call our own, thrown to the darkest parts of the void along the galactic east. Coming to our senses to late we were not counted 'brother' among those loyal to Horus nor were we redeemable in the eyes of our kin following the Emperor of Mankind. Our number was once seventy-one, now reduced to a fraction of twenty-three. We scavenge the carcasses of battle like revolting carrion with the simple imperative to just survive. We are forlorn. Doomed to die in the darkness where the light of the Imperium does not shine." - '''''The First''' (Exert from the Tomes of Three: The First)''

     "Our time here on the edge of the unknown has been one of great trials, testing each and every one of us in ways never before conceived. Years have been spent fighting formidable xenos warriors, none more so than the Eldar. If it had not been for the Rogue Trader House from the nearby Profanus Sector, we all would have been annihilated and our legacy, experience, and knowledge lost for all time. Our armor and weapons were of a bygone age and what remained were scrapped together from our fallen brethren in years past. Brother Loritus has and continues to work tirelessly to maintain what supplies and armor we have acquired. I had managed to extract their gene seeds and the gene seeds of fallen Astarties that had fallen in battle. We were mere carrion picking on the corpses of the dead to bolster our meager number. Even so, in the end, it was not enough. Though we bore the markings of legions long lost, our former brothers turned traitor, we were accepted by the humans of this sector and treated with compassion. It is apparent now that the strength of the Imperium is not in arms alone, but the humans within it." - '''''Cospirious, The Suicidal Apothecary''' (Exert from the Tomes of Three: Tome of the Suicidal Apothecary)''

     "Never again shall we strike without purpose. No longer shall we desecrate the fallen among our brothers. No longer shall we hide in the shadows. No longer shall we be forlorn. We are reborn in the light of the Emperor. Through His light we will speak his truths! Through His light we will illuminate the dark places! Through His Light will be guard humanity against any encroaching threat! Born out of hopelessness we will bring hope! We are humanities hopeless hope. We are the Forlorn Hope! And never shall we ever turn out backs on humanity! Upon our honor, upon our oaths, upon our lives do we swear this oath!" - '''''Loritus, The Reborn''' (Exert from the Tomes of Three: Juggernaut)''

Very little is known of the Forlorn Hope, even from among their lower ranks. The Chapter is guided by [[Chris-Chan | Master Aldaer Dosuss]], a warrior of exceptional skill selected from among the Aspirants. They are known to operate in the Eastern Fringes of the galaxy and appear to center their operations around the Praufus System and the territories controlled by Rouge Trader House Bellend.
