Editing Star Dragons (section)

===Beliefs===

The Star Dragons have a more religious chapter cult than most, though it's not a religion the Ecclesiarchy approves of. They practice a quasi-pantheist polytheism, with the Emperor and the primarch in the most prominent roles but several other figures given worship as well. The Emperor is worshipped as the Crowned Sun, Eagle of the Night, who lights the way between stars and planets and reigns over the emptiness of space. Corvus Corax is recognizable in the Feathered Dragon, Master of Secrets, who governs deception and storms and safeguards the common citizens. The most important others in their pantheon are the Mirrored Dragon, who governs (psykers) and the realms of the dead, and the Reborn Serpent, who continually eats himself ourobouros-fashion, who governs seasons, growth, and technology.
In line with these animistic beliefs, the Star Dragons identify the [[Machine Spirit]] of a vehicle or large machine as that machine's 'dragon', and are more likely to refer to a bolter's "metal serpent" than its "machine spirit", though this makes little difference in how they care for their machines, or in how they regard the Techpriests of the Mechanicum; their name for the Reborn Serpent is different, but they understand the Serpent's ways well, so their guidance is taken to heart.
