History
The Rampagers, a Second Founding White Scars successor, live fleet-based and claim Feral Worlds as recruiting grounds, testing the populace for corruption. In 490.M34 their 6th Company toppled a rebel theocracy on Dabenlar III in a single night; in 811.M37 they helped the Blood Angels defend Mackan. In M42 came the Octarius War and the Blackheart War.
Notes
Facial scars show rank and prestige and are given in the long Blooding ceremony; the blood gathered forms part of the feast that follows. Company shows in the colour of the left knee plate. The Battle Barge Rampager fell into the hands of the Voidbutchers.
