After the [[Primarch (Warmasters Triumvirate)|Primarchs]] were dispersed throughout the galaxy by the Ruinous Powers, the [[Emperor of Mankind]] reunites them, and continues with His [[Great Crusade]]. During the closing years of this two-hundred-year galactic conquest, during the height of the Ullanor Crusade, the Emperor would be fatally wounded by the [[Ork]] [[Warboss]] [[Urlakk Urg]], and be rushed to Terra to be interred in the [[Golden Throne]]. In the wake of His incapacitation His Regent, Malcador the Sigillite, chooses three Primarchs to form the Warmasters Triumvirate: [[Marduk Engur]] of the [[Leviathan Host]]; [[Je'She of the Watch|Je'She]] of [[the Sentinels]]; and [[Jon-Frederic Aristide]] of the [[Emperor's Dragoons]]. The Triumvirate would continue the prosecution of the Great Crusade in the Emperor's stead, each responsible for one of the fronts of the Crusade.

The administration of the Imperium would eventually be taken over by mere mortals, infuriating some of the Primarchs, Jon-Frederic Aristide, 'firstborn' son of the Emperor, in particular. He made his distaste for the state of the Imperium more and more known, decreeing that the Imperium should be governed by the most capable individuals, primarily the Astartes. Soon entire regions of the Imperium were engulfed in conflict as small-scale confrontations, skirmishes, political arguments and random planetary secessions take place, threatening to drive the Imperium into an all-out civil war. To prevent the conflict's escalation, Malcador calls for a peace conference on a neutral planet, overseen by the 'neutral' Warmaster, Marduk Engur. Both sides, pro-Mortal, lead by Je'She, and pro-Astartes, lead by Jon-Frederic, are tricked by the Primarch of the [[Soaring Host]], [[Elsu Eyanosa]], who kills Malcador on Marduk's order in such a manner that both sides think that the other is responsible for the Regent's death. The galaxy-wide conflict quickly escalated, and the 'Brotherwar' began. 

The Imperium is shattered into two, while the forces of Chaos grow like a cancer that threatens to swallow both. Eventually, Marduk reveals his true allegiance to the Ruinous Powers, and attacks Holy Terra. His main objective: to kill the Emperor of Mankind.  Even after the defeat of the traitor forces during the [[Siege of Terra]], the loyalist Imperium of Mankind and the separatist [[Union Astarte]], engage in a never-ending war, and must both face the constant onslaught of the marauding forces Chaos and the Xenos empires.

And when the End Times finally come, will the Imperium and the Union be prepared for when Marduk Engur's warning proves true and the Leviathan returns to devour all?

Hell yeah they will.

===Timeline===
{{Main|Warmaster's Triumvirate Timeline}}

===The Great Crusade===
Everything goes swimmingly until Marduk turns up. Things get hairy around Laer, and then [[Kinnévail Kincaid|Kincaid]] gets shitfaced at one of Elsu's parties and sets his wife, his honor guard and his own self on fire. Elsu cops the blame.

===The Council of Nikea===
Following an impassioned speech from Kincaid and an outpouring of support from the majority of his brothers, the Emperor enacts the Edict of Nikaea, banning the use of [[Psyker]]s. The [[Chosen of Hecate]] are hit especially hard by this and begin hemorrhaging soldiers. The [[Astral Wardens]] are fitted with collars to suppress their inborn psychic ability. The [[Golden Mountains]] are not very compliant with this and suffer a disastrous sanction at the hands of [[Isekho the Unseen|Isekho]]'s [[Smoke Stalkers]].

===The Ullanor Crusade===
The Emperor gets chokeslammed at Orkamania and becomes the skele-vegetable we all know and love. It's [[Deshain Kane|Deshain]]'s fault and he goes on a bloody crusade out of guilt.

===The Brotherwar===
Everybody splits into three teams, the Imperium under Je'She (and Kinnévail), the [[Union Astarte|Union]] under Jon-Fred, and the Traitors, under Marduk. [[Ashur of Banipal|Ashur]] is forcibly ascended to a [[Daemon Prince]] using an archaeotech device and a ritual prepared by Barabush and his traitor sons. Deshain embraces [[Khorne]] as a way to escape his guilt. Elsu finds fellowship in [[Tzeentch]]. [[Lambach Kropor|Lambach]]'s ritual to resurrect his First Captain is interrupted by [[Raj Vokar|Raj]] and [[Linares]], and he turns to [[Nurgle]] to save his hide. Isekho finally catches his questing beast and discovers it was a long-form invitation to join [[Slaanesh]]. [[Mot Hadad|Mot]] blows up like half of the Union's forge worlds and escalates the Greater Daemon [[Hashut]] to Godhood, himself becoming a Daemon Primarch.

===The Battle of New Hope===
Diplomacy has failed. Team, unite up!

===The Siege of Terra===
Marduk crashes his flagship into the Gate of Terra, Raj holds the line until Deshain forces him to self-destruct the Apocalyptican. The day is ultimately won by the Imperials and Marduk dies, with the traitors retreating to the [[Eye of Terror]]. Raj is posthumously instated as the first Imperial Saint, marking the overt beginning of Kinnévail's Imperial Faith.
