A Sword Brethren or Sword Brother, are the [[Black Templars]] equivalent to the First Company of other Chapters. Black Templar veterans are elevated to this rank and placed in separate squads where they will fight as elites, train to use [[Power Armour#Terminator Armour|Terminator Armour]] (they are the only Black Templars allowed to use the armour) or form a [[Marshal]]'s bodyguard.

==Overview==
Because of their status and the shit they wear, they are exempt from training [[Black Templar Neophyte]]s and unlike squads with [[Initiate]]s, Neophytes will not be found in a Sword Brethren squad.

During Crusades, a Marshal can also appoint a [[Castellan]] to lead one of the Fighting Companies. This Castellan is picked from the Sword Brethren as is the case when a Castellan or Marshal is killed, the new one will be picked from the Sword Brethren.

Despite the fluff of them all wearing Terminator armour, in terms of the minis, [[Wat|''none'' of them actually wear it.]] Why that's the case, we have no clue.
