The Titan Marchers were XVIIth Legiones Astartes. Lead by Raj Vokar, they would crush the enemies of mankind with heavy weaponry and the collossal might of the Titan warmachines. During the Brotherwar that followed the Great Crusade they would remain loyal to humanity, at the cost of their beloved gene-sire. Still proud defenders of humanity deep into the 41st millenium, even after splintering into many successor chapters.

History

Pre-Primarch History & Reunion

The XVIIth legion was founded in the waning years of the Unification Wars, mostly from the hive cities of Ursh. During their short tenure without a Primarch, they would go by 'the Steel XVIIth' and were already known for their characteristic calm and calculated stoicism. The early XVIIth carried itself with a grim and dour nihilism. They were workhorses, grinding their way through the Great Crusade without much joy or purpose beyond the perpetuation of Mankind and service to the Emperor. The legion would only exist like this for a small number of decades.

Raj Vokar was the fifth Primarch to be rediscovered. Reunited with it's gene-sire relatively early in Great Crusade, Raj had more than enough time to reshape the legion to his ideals. Upon reunion with the Imperium and his legion, he found himself fascinated by the collosal Titans of the Adeptus Titanicus. Those massive weapons were very similar to ones found on Manaan, the world the Titan Lord had been sent to, the Raakshas. While the Raakshas, based on the same technologies as the Imperium's Titans, had diverted from the designs of the Machine God, they were still of great interest to the techpriests. In exchange for the secrets and facilities of Manaan, the Titanicus would provide the XVIIth legion with more Titan Legio cohorts than any other. This would lay the foundation of the future for the Steel XVIIth, or as they were now know, the Titan Marchers.

Not only did the Liberator of Manaan overhaul the Titan Marchers tactically, he also overhauled them culturally. Gone was the grim nihilism of the old days, replaced by optimistic self-reflection and a desire for self-improvement. Where Marchers had once thought of themselves as nothing more than tools who would work until they were broken, now they were proud warriors fighting not only for a better future for humanity, but for a better future for themselves.
