Editing Jernrådet (section)

=Warband History=
Once the 12th Bastion of the [[The Bulwark|Bulwark]], the Jernrådet began as the outcast amongst the other Bastions; whereas the other 11 Bastions recruited from the Arelon system, the 12th Bastion recruited from the nearby Barskahmp system. The two systems had been at war since time immemorial, and the feud had only ended due to the arrival of [[Hektor Cincinnatus]], Primarch of the [[Heralds of Hektor]].

With a much lower population than the Arelon system, Barskahmp only contributed enough recruits to create one Bastion, which fostered a feeling of inferiority and spite amongst its members. Their culture and tactics were also vastly different from that of the other 11 Bastions, which only further exacerbated their isolation from the rest of the Legion. 

By the time of the Crucible, their Tower, Thoren Grimm, had already been swayed to Chaos by the Tower of the 7th Bastion. Being assigned to the front lines of the battle, the 12th Bastion retreated at the first sight of the Silver Cataphracts and Steel Marshal forces. This gross act of cowardice left the 9th Bastion completely defenseless against the invading forces. The 9th Bastion was slaughtered to a man and that portion of the Crucible's defenses fell within a month.

Out of the roughly 8,000 Marines that made up the 12th Bastion, over half followed Thoren in his rebellion against his Primarch; those that did not were left to die with the 9th Bastion.

Losing several of their primary void vessels in their escape, the diminished 12th Bastion was dubbed the Jernrådet by their leader and now exist as a Chaos-affiliated warband that haunts the Segmentum Tempestus.

===Thoren Grimm, Tower of the 12th Bastion===

On the snowy terrain of Rasmus's World existed a mercenary group known as Knudsen's Rampagers that protected a few villages from the other factions waging war on Rasmus's World. Usually keeping to themselves, they had recently gone on the offensive and attacked too many factions at once, leading to the majority of the factions to wage war against Knudsen's Rampagers. One day, during a reprieve of fighting, a village was destroyed due to suspected connection to the Rampagers. Amongst the wreckage, the Rampagers discovered a burdgundy-haired youth; the only survivor of the attack on his village. 

A week later, Knudsen himself came to see the child that the patrol found.  Acknowledging Thoren's perseverance and determination by surviving, Knudsen then told the patrol that found Thoren to teach him in subjects that pertained to the war and train him for combat. Naming the child Thoren Grimm, or "Thunder Child" in Rasmussic, the leader of the patrol adopted the child.After being initiated into the Rampagers and trained in the art of war, Thoren was placed in a Leidang with his mentor and many other Rampagers.

While the war changed with the Rampagers gaining the advantage, another group was interested in the world. [[Sebastion Rex]], Primarch of the The XXVIII Legion, also Emperor of Arelon, had long been in a feud war with the inhabitants of Rasmus's World. Landing upon the planet, Sebastion ordered a decimation of the indigenous civilization as a show of force. After this, any youth of a proper age were brainwashed and press-ganged into service to the XXVIII Legion, including Thoren Grimm, who would be picked out for his leadership abilities and fierce combat skills after a gladiatorial match held in honour of the planet's new rulers. Thoren was then placed in command of his new Bastion, which was used to cleanse the planet of any faction that had dared to stand against Sebastion.

After a month of non-stop combat, the last remaining enemy factions surrendered and were taken as thralls to be forced to assist Knudsen and his Rampagers, who had previously been taken on by Thoren's Bastion as Light Auxilia.
