	The Awakening is not a simple procedure. Thankfully, the tech-savvy servants beneath the Phalanx Marines have perfected the chemical cocktail necessary to awaken them. Before an assault is made, the first Primer is loaded intravenously into their bloodstream. These ~~cataonic~~ bodies are beginning to rise, but have not completed the rite just yet. Their living-corpses are then loaded onto Drop-Pods, from which a second injection, the Second Primer, brings them to life while falling to the ground into combat. Orders are usually filtered into their helmets as they land or after, directing them to objectives on the field.		The Awakening is not a simple procedure.

	Zhardan was not born under the name that would be spoken of by rising Chaos Lords with both admiration and envy. He was once known as '''Zarac Hordan''', a non-Psykic member of the [[Black Augurs]] Traitor [[Legiones Astartes (Hektor Heresy)\|Space Marine Legion]]. Due to the hierarchy of the Augurs being based entirely upon those with sorcerous capability, Zarac was left out of many accomplishments gained in both the [[Great Crusade (Hektor Heresy)\|Great Crusade]] and [[Hektor Heresy]]. In the mayhem caused by Heresy, and the numerous losses heaped upon the Black Augurs Zarac found himself being promoted to Ship's Master aboard the ''Insidious Hammer'', an Avenger-class Grandcruiser. From this post Zarac was instrumental in doing absolutely nothing at all as the ship ~~preformed~~ rear-guard actions for the invasion of the Sol-System until finally fleeing upon Imperial reinforcement.

	The greatest example of this triumph was the Fortress World of Cadia. A testament to Mankinds ability for total war, the keystone world to the very causeway of the Eye of Terror was made into an impenetrable juggernaut of stellar and terrestrial defensive measures. No world in the whole of the millions held together by the Imperium say for Terra herself could rival the defensive value that had been poured into fortifying Cadia. Exactly as Zhardan had anticipated in his speech all those years ago. Worse for the Host, they did not react immediately. The Warlords could not agree on a Warmaster, and no one alone could challenge the strength of the Imperium.		The greatest example of this triumph was the Fortress World of Cadia.

-Zhardan would build an empire upon the foundations of the old. His first move was to seek if the Ramparts were interested in sponsoring the assault. Giving over troops, supply, and ships was help enough but this was not enough for Zhardan. The ''Immaculate Phalanx'' warband led by '''Leonidas Manisicus''', along with the ''Unrequited Sons'' commanded by the brilliant Jamaspa were invited to the assault. Not as subordinates, or even partners, but simply to attack at the same time upon a common enemy. Their combined might allowed the Traitor forces to experience the stunning victory over the Imperial forces that is remembered fondly by all servants of the Dark Gods.

 Though the members comprising the Host have their own unique subcultures, the attempts of Zhardan to create a singular entity for Chaos to rally behind to wield their varied powers towards destroying the Imperium echo even after Elenkor's takeover. The ideal of a singular Legion, with no equal, as one force devoted to the glory of not one Chaos God but all same as the Eternal Zealots. In fact, Zhardan was quite a admirer of Zealot and Herald culture attempting to emulate both in his efforts to create the Unstained.

Breaking off from his home Legion more than two centuries ago towards the middle of the Heresy, the Pale Sword Astartes lusted for plunder and prestige. Cranog saw an opportunity in the collection of worlds held together by the elite and twisted mortal men before him. Giving over much needed ships and Space Marine support, the raids proved too costly for their potential gains for most abandoning any assault into Banner territory after a time. Cranog also represented the Company alongside the Syndic Nicimodeus at the Council of Medica discussing their part to play in the Unstained.

	Nine Warbands made up the initial Unstained Host after the Council of Medica. These factions comprise the primary strength and political power of the Host. Before the arrival of Elenkor, the nine Warlords who held power and sway over these groups decided upon a Warmaster to lead them to victory. Often times, the Warlords bickered, fought, and attempted to politically outmaneuver one another too often to give decisive leadership. Laws and rulership differed wildly between the members of the Host. For what may be considered a great feat in the territory of one could be a death sentence in another. Whatever the case, when united these warbands formed the mighty Unstained. Alone, powerful, together, nigh unstoppable.		Nine Warbands made up the initial Unstained Host after the Council of Medica.
