==Red Wolves== <div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:1000px"> ''"Waeles am byth"'' - Askladd Yydrelli, chief Librarian <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> {{Infobox Spess Mahreen Chapter |Name = Red Wolves |Heraldry = [[Image:Red_Wolves.jpg|center|140px]] |Battle Cry = Teribus ye teri Imperator! |Founding = M35 |Successors of = [[Raven Guard]] |Chapter Master = Llywelyn Eagle-Eye |Homeworld = Waelas, commonly known as Bloodfall in Low Gothic |Strength = 1,000 |Allegiance = [[Imperium]] |Colours = Red, Black pauldrons}} A chapter of Raven Guard successors based on the Feral World of Waelas, the Red Wolves are forest combat specialists. They make multiple raids and ambuscades on a foe, before finally striking the killing blow at last. This specialty stems from the nature of their homeworld - Waelas is almost entirely plains, interrupted by large forests. The plains are inhabited by various breeds of large beasts. Children are taught to flee into the forests for safety, and to lose pursuers in the undergrowth - making way to their secluded home villages. From the age of 10, every children is given a longbow made from the yew and elm trees of the forests, as to link them to their homes. Those who go on to become part of the chapter wield bows as well, having made several modifications to them - including explosive anti-personnel arrowheads and Promethan lined tips. Devastator Squads are non-existent within the battle companies, their roles having been folded into specialized Tactical Squads who wield the same weapons- with the Devastator Company largely being composed of veterans of these squads. Thus, Scout Squads jump from their status as initiates straight to the Assault squads. They're particularly found of hunting Tau and Kroot that occupy nearby worlds, as they often raided Waeles while the chapter is away. They circumvent the Tau's ranged capabilities by stalking in the under brush, often times spending months chipping away at their forces until they pose only a minor threat. Thanks to their exploits and mystery, they've become something of a legend in the Xenos cadre. The marines of the chapter become the pride of the tribe they hailed from. To fully represent their home, they incorporate their ancestral heraldry unto their armor. Every 50 years they're allowed to return home for a planet wide celebration of a particularly large battle against feral Ork tribes that once occupied the planet '''Death Watch''' Each Marine from the Red Wolves has the Astartes Longbow in their war kit, excluding techmarines. If the Astartes Longbow is used with any kind of special ammunition, it loses the tearing and crippling qualities. ''Astartes Longbow'': basic weapon; 1d10+SB; Pen 2; Range: 50 m; RoF: S/-/-; Clip: 1; Reload: half; Crippling(2), Tearing </div> </div>
