==Dictators== <div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:1000px"> ''"As you can see here, I deal in only the finest specimens this side of Ultima Segmentum. We've taken great care in implanting these fine servants of the Emperor with extensive modifications, each body thrice anointed as we gifted these lowely creatures the Machine God's many blessings. Now gentlemen, shall the bidding begin?"'' - Brother Arbalest of the Dictators, addressing the Techlords of Sekar Prime before a servitor auction. <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> {{Infobox Spess Mahreen Chapter |Name = Dictators |Heraldry = [[Image:Dictators.png|center|140px]] |Battle Cry = No mercy for the weak! |Founding = 8th Founding |Successors of = Iron Hands |Chapter Master = Cestii Centorius |Homeworld = Karons Rest |Strength = 1,000 with Serviator thralls |Allegiance = [[Imperium]] |Colours = Black, with Red helm and Pauldrons, and Gold trim }} The Dictators are a despicable chapter, formed as descendants of the Iron Hands. The Dictators are infamous for taking the Iron Hands conviction of "Flesh is weak", to its absolute extreme, forcing their bodily modifications on the innocent populace of the many planets they come across. Whole worlds populations are converted into veritable legions of servitors and servo skulls, to either serve the Dictators for the remainder of their days, or auctioned off to the many Forge Worlds, the Dictators providing these worlds protection in exchange for recruits and supplies. Needless to say they aren't liked very much by the Guard or the more honorable Marine chapters, however they have good relations with some of the more Puritan members of the Mechanicus due to both their devotion to the Omnissiah (some would say to the point of placing it above the Emperor), and because they provide them with millions of newely minted servitors as cheap labor after each conquest. As expected, they're well within the Mechanicus good graces to have plenty of Tech Marines within the Chapter. They recruit from Mechanicus Forge worlds that they visit to resupply and sell off their servitor "stock" to unscrupulous Magos'. Some would say they're a little too comfy with the Mechanicus, and much anger has been directed their way by more honorable chapters such as the Salamanders and Space Wolves for their profiteering and the "slave trade" they help perpetuate of unwilling converts to Serivtorhood. The Dictators themselves hold little more than disdain for un-augmented humans, seeing them as cattle whose weakness only stand to be improved via the blessed act of augmentation. This attitude even extends to their fellow Marines, though they feebly attempt to be more subtle about it. Getting the Dictators to defend non-Mechanicus worlds is a great task that the Dictators themselves only do with great resentment. Indeed, they've been known to go halfway across the Galaxy to defend a forge world rather than defend an Agri-world just 2 sectors away...unless they have room in the shop for more "goods". While they do have a homeworld of sorts, they rarely return to it and are in essence a fleet based chapter, operating in more wild regions of the Galaxy. seeking to crush worlds that rebel against the Imperium in order to bring them back into the fold, this time with no possibility of rebellion. The people of their homeworld of Karons Rest live their lives in fear that they next will be taken, but believe that if they work hard enough that they, somehow, might be spared from the wrath of their unforgiving masters once they come again. The Dictator marines themselves hold absolute authority and control over the populace, their word is law. Despite all this, the populace love the Dictators, seeing them as their guardians who thousands of years past freed them from the clutches of Chaos. Any price, be it their infant sons or their spouse, is seen by them as being insufficient enough to repay the marines for their protection. The Dictators, of course, are more than happy with this arrangement. </div> </div>
