The Imperial Stars are an Imperial Fists successor chapter founded some time in M37, and believe hard discipline is the key to the Imperium's survival. They see the downfall of humanity as encroaching and nigh unstoppable, doomed from hedonistic aristocrats, and traitors in its citizens. Despite their absolute pessimism, they continue to fight and die for the Imperium, since that is what their loyalty dictates. The connected stars on their shield refers to their domain in the far reaches of the segmentum obscurus. They see no salvation for the Imperium as they enter the newest millennium, but wish to preserve as much as they can in the coming days of Armageddon. Despite being a small, secluded chapter, they managed to wrangle three livable systems under their control, known as the Celestial Triumvirate. These worlds are harsh and strictly regimented, but through their struggles, the colonists are able to ward off continual assaults from the various despicable forces that call Obscurus home. Despite strict government regulation, the only interaction between the chapter and its people are chaplains, who make regular rounds to "ensure the peoples are pure of spirit and duty". These marines are otherwise an entirely conventional codex-adherent chapter.

Despite a constant underlying loathing for all of humanity's enemies, the chapter gets along with only a few other chapters. They have an eternal disdain for the Iron Hands and their successors, as they believe their modifications are a sign of weakness and lack of will to discipline the body. They hold the Ultramarines and their ilk on an ever so slightly lower pedestals than their own progenitors, in respect of their dedication. Of the forces of man, they refuse to fight along side the rabble that makes up the guard, and the heretics that make up the Inquisition. They only truly ever fight with the more disciplined Sisters of Battle.

Their chaptermaster is known as Yurth the Indomitable, a centuries old marine whose skin is as hard as his ceramite. The man is loyal to a fault, always fulfilling any request for aid. It was his idea for the chapter preservation efforts within the Segmentum, and personally lead the planet-side cleansing efforts in order to move in colonists. In his many years of service, he lost his left eye, half of his left hand, and two fingers off his right. Despite these inhibitors, he refuses body modification, choosing instead to cope through discipline and training. In battle, he wields an Eviscerator made from the dark irons of their homeworld, with jagged teeth and rough plating. He dwarfs his fellow marines and stature and musculature, and is attributed as the sole reason for the chapter's success. Rumors in the Triumvirate say that Yurth regularly travels to the warp to stave back the chaos gods themselves. If such talk was aloud in the chapter, more than a few brothers would be inclined to believe.

Of the chapter's few deviations, the veteran squads are assault squad.
