Editing Camaxtli (section)

===The Great Crusade===

Camaxtli's domain was discovered by explorator craft in 870.M30, the planet's abundant population and militarization identifying it as an ideal Imperial recruitment world. Yet, of particular note was the steady expansionism occurring on its surface maintaining a near unprecedented rate of progression indicating a primarch's presence upon the world. The Emperor moved greet this new son immediately, yet a combination of warp-phenomena, Ork WAAAGHs, and other xenos incursions delayed his travel.

Thus, the Emperor arrived a year behind schedule to find a vicious, stubborn, and ritualized populace awaiting his armies. Camaxtli greeted the newcomer with wary respect, intuitively aware of His power and future he bore. He showed the Emperor his great works, the multitude of peoples that payed service to him and his armies, of their accomplishments in culture, and art, the intricate stonework detailing his victories over the Chalchihuitan people and the practices of ritual sacrifice embedded in the culture. Upon witnessing the rites and mysteries of the priesthood, Camaxtli accompanied the Emperor into his landing ship. It is unknown what passed between them, but when Camaxtli next appeared he was clad in a vast set of grey power armor. At the head of the nineteenth legion, Camaxtli purged the majority of the elder priesthood from his world; those same individuals which had helped assure Camaxtli's entrance and assassination of Coatl. 

From there the legion was mobilized under their gene-father and conquered the remaining nations of Chalchihuitl. Camaxtli founded his fortress upon the world, making the planet a base of operations for his vibrant and violent sons as they conducted the Emperor's judgement across the galaxy, aiding in - and conducting - the extermination of thousands of xenos empires. The Segmentum Tempestus, the Ultima Segmentum, and worlds along the core were Camaxtli would often be found waging war for the Imperium. 

In his legion, Camaxtli found a host of kindred spirits. Men as bitter and isolated as he was during his youth. Camaxtli embraced his legion as his own children, teaching them his methods of war and combat: how to coordinate, to run down their enemies, and inevitably slay them. This training, coupled with the battlefield guidance of their primarch and their experience on the battlefield would forge the legion into an impressive and deadly force.

Given Camaxtli's genius to assault and ambush tactics, as well as his extensive experience in pacifying non-compliant citizen populations, he often found himself leading campaigns to bring particularly troublesome Imperial Worlds back under the Emperors rule. Especially those planets whose rebellion could encourage more systems to follow their example. Despite how effective Camaxtli was as an enforcer, he resented it and considered it a waste of the abilities of his sons. 

As the crusade progressed Camaxtli would delegate the task of pacification to trusted members of his command, a decision that - coupled with his negligence regarding his men - would prove to be catastrophic and put him at odds with his Father and brothers.
