"All of creation suffers, young ones. Only in accepting our own mortality can we make a difference. Only in bearing the burden of our failures can we find the strength to go on. Only in detachment from glory, or honour, or jealousy... from life itself can we hope to spare others from grief. We are Doom Eagles. And we are dead already."
- – Librarian Secundus Thryn
Overview
The Sea Serpents are a Space Marine chapter from an unknown founding. They model their chapter Traditions on the nautical traditions of ancient Terra. Much of the traditions are pieced together from what’s known, so has a tendency to span a number of times and cultures from Terran Nautical tradition.
The preferred tactic of the chapter is the “Hammerhead Strike”. The strike that goes into a war zone quickly and loudly, only to disappear quickly before the enemy can react. Due to this, they make excellent shock troops and counters to Druhkari raiders; counter-deploying to match their raids in a very short amount of time.
