	The mighty empire of the Bulwark had fallen. Shattered by the combined forces of the Silver Cataphracts and the Steel Marshals, the Bulwark never quite recovered. After the Heresy had run its course, the empire rose again, but it wasn't quite the same. Some planets seceded from the union and the vastly undermanned Bulwark simply could not stop them. Without their Primarch, they could not continue to expand their borders and prosper, as they had before. Instead, they fought every day simply to retain a semblance of their once sprawling empire.

	~~Sebastian~~'s last great act as Primarch had been to hollow out one of the moons of Arelon to form an impregnable fortress of rock and ambition. During the events of the Crucible, ~~Sebastian~~ ordered the entire 1st Bastion into the fortress, which came to be known as "The Folly of Rex" or simply "The Folly." Seeing this act as cowardly, many officers stayed on the battlefield and died with their Primarch. However, the captain of the 1st Bastion, whose name has been lost in the annals of history, was one of the few who chose to enter The Folly.		Sebastion's last great act as Primarch had been to hollow out one of the moons of Arelon to form an impregnable fortress of rock and ambition. During the events of the Crucible, Sebastion ordered the entire 1st Bastion into the fortress, which came to be known as "The Folly of Rex" or simply "The Folly." Seeing this act as cowardly, many officers stayed on the battlefield and died with their Primarch. However, the captain of the 1st Bastion, whose name has been lost in the annals of history, was one of the few who chose to enter The Folly.

	Emerging days later to scenes of devastation, the captain and the remains of his company wept bitter tears for the loss of their brethren. It took several weeks to merely collect the gene-seed of their fallen allies and enemies. During this time, the remains of the Bulwark splintered into factions; some wanted to leave to find their own path, some to surrender to the Loyalists, and others to side with the Traitors. The ~~Chapter Master~~ of the 1st company, the most trusted equerry of his Primarch, only sought one thing; to build his own empire upon the ashes of the last. Seeing no other course of action, the Chapter Master assumed the title of Highcastle and took a new name; Indomitus. Indomitus would go on to become Emperor of a new domain as his forces reconquered worlds that had once been under their Legion's control.

	The Bulwark had failed. Its mighty defenses had been breached and its mighty leader slain. Seeking to distance his empire from that of his failed predecessor, Indomitus renamed his Legion; they were now to be known as the Ramparts, the mighty crowns upon the towers of order.

	During the Heresy, Indomitus was placed in charge of fortifying Arelon itself; the heart of Sebastion's empire needed to possess the most complex and fortified emplacements, and as such needed to be properly overseen by someone with extensive experience in both manning and destroying fortifications.

	====Appearance====		====Appearance====
			Various records are in confliction as to exactly how Indomitus looked and stood, but most agree that he stood head and shoulders above most of his brethren. Some state that he stood at a solid 9 feet tall, while more extreme cases cited a monstrous 13 feet. Throughout these various records, however, his other attributes are fairly constant. Clad in MkIII power armour that only further augmented Indomitus's already imposing figure, the only ornamentation he allowed himself was the crest atop his helmet.

	=====Equipment=====		=====Equipment=====
			While still his Primarch's Equerry, Indomitus was known to have fielded a boarding shield and a thunder hammer, a common combination for Bulwark assault troops. However, the boarding shield was modified to feature an integrated meltagun for assaulting enemy fortifications.

	====History====		====History====
	Formerly the Equerry of Sebastian Rex, Primarch of the ~~Bulwark~~, Indomitus ~~now strives~~ to ~~rebuild~~ his ~~Primarch's once mighty~~ empire. A ~~consumate~~ strategist, Indomitus ~~rarely leaves~~ the ~~fortified confines~~ of The ~~Folly~~, ~~instead trusting his Towers to do his bidding~~. ~~What~~ is an ~~empire without an Emperor?~~		An intense and powerful man, the Marine who would eventually be known as Indomitus lead every major assault upon enemy ships and fortifications, constantly coming away unscathed while the rest of his men perished. Formerly the Equerry of Sebastian Rex, some records indicate he may have been a form of Assault Captain, but others conclude that this may be misinformation. Nonetheless, as Equerry to the Hidden Rex, this figure often acted as liason between the Bulwark's forces and the will of the Primarch himself.

			During the Heresy, Indomitus was placed in charge of fortifying Arelon itself; the heart of Sebastion's empire needed to possess the most complex and fortified emplacements, and as such needed to be properly overseen by someone with extensive experience in both manning and destroying fortifications.

			Post-Crucible, Indomitus hung up his hammer and shield to reform the shattered remains of his Legion and forge a better empire than his former lord. A cunning strategist, Indomitus has reclaimed the majority of what was once the Bulwark Empire by any number of under-handed or overt methods such as brain-washing and carpet-bombing.

			===The Magistrate of Destruction===
			A relic from a bygone era, the Magistrate is a Contemptor-class Dreadnought that is only awoken in times of dire need. Never speaking, only performing its allotted task, none but the Chapter's Highcastle know of its origins. Armed with a multi-melta, twin-linked heavy bolters, and a Cyclone missile launcher, the Magistrate is very thorough in its deployments, devastating enemy troops, armored support, and air support alike.

			Its heavily modified armor bears the scars of thousands of battles, denoting its ancient nature; rumours abound that it fought in The Heresy, the Great Crusade, and even the Unification Wars. The nature of these rumours has been dismissed as nothing but scuttlebutt by the Chapter command, but the troops still look upon the Magistrate as an ancient hero of legend. Those who have fought beside it often question why it constantly yells with such undying hatred whenever awoken, but no answer comes.
