Editing Obsidian Glaives (section)

==Chapter Practices==

Since their homeworld had no population even before the Red WAAAGH wrecked shit, they recruited from prisoners where young boys who were faced with death sentences were preached to hourly, then interviewed by a [[Chaplain]]. If the prisoner repented and wanted to ''extend'' his sentence, he would be initiated into the Obsidian Glaives. After the first round of surgeries, they got dropped back onto the irradiated hell-hole they called the surface and were told to make their way back to the fortress-monastery, and to survive [[Grimdark|even if they had to kill their fellow aspirants.]]

These guys also thought of being a Space Marine very differently than their kin. [[Flagellant|They saw it as a punishment]]. Which actually makes sense considering they were consigning themselves to potentially millennia or outright forever fighting almost non-stop against mind-shattering horrors and alien monsters. They also did a lot of [[Imperial Fists|self-flagellation]]. But it doesn't end there. [[Grimdark|They brainwashed themselves in order to learn how to fight and in the process, lose their memories]]. Even after all of that [[Derp|THEY STILL SAW THEMSELVES AS GUILTY!]]

(Seriously, are these guys not closet Imperial Fist successors?)

=== Campaigns ===
*'''Helrac Incursion''' - Fought [[Eldar Corsairs]] and wound up chasing them to the Space Hulk "Mote of Darkness." The first company went in and cleaned them out.
