The Dreameaters, or the Tiger Claws as they where known before the discovery of their Primarch, were a Traitor Space Marine Legion led by the mutant Primarch Zan Shin. The legion was infamous for being composed of misfits and thugs, a stigma that remained even after a long series of reforms inacted by their Primarch. It was not the treachery of their Primarch that drug the VIIth into the heresy but rather that of the legion as a whole, the upper echelons of the Legion betraying their Primarch at the start of the Heresy. The Dreameaters are noteworthy for their unorthodox interpretation of "stealth" prefering to create a titanic smokescreen of psychoactive fogs and hallucinogenic vapours to conduct extravagant feints and harrying assaults within, as well as provide a distraction for flanking or infiltrating units.
History of the Seventh Legion
While many other traitor legions bear tragic tales of falls from grace and corruption due to the faults of their flawed yet mythic Primarchs, the fall of the VIIth legion is neither tragic nor shocking. The VIIth legion was perhaps always destined to buck against just leaders and the cause of the greater good, the tragedy entirely that of their Primarch's failure to save the legion from their baser nature.

"They are no more an army than a barbarian horde, individuals bound together through the promise of glory with little care for quant ideals of honor or loyalty. There are some amongst the gangster rabble that rise above the immature clanishness of the Legion. Leaders, heroes, artisans, masterminds...warlords and devils. Individuals in a host of individuals, it is they that keeps the heart of the VIIth Legion beating."-Unknown War Scribe

It's not enough to kill the enemy. You must destroy their home, their families, their friends, set his brothers against him. To crush your ememy's soul, to rend his mind asunder, to make him a husk...that, Marines, is something much worse than mere death. -First Captain Durag Danzig
