Basilisks

History of the Chapter

• The Basilisks are a chapter of Loyalist Space Marines in Warhammer 40,000.

• The Basilisks' were founded in the 39th Millennium, in response to a foreseen rising threat from Eldar forces. (Later it was theorized that the vision was of this so-called God "Ynnari" the Eldar are touting about the galaxy).

• The chapter is of unknown gene-seed, but the chapter claims to be progeny of the Salamanders.

• Perhaps inspired by the reputation of their supposed Progenitors, the Basilisks make great efforts to leave none behind who may survive to fight again.
