The Dust Lords are simultaneously a renegade chapter of Space Marines and Chaos Space Marine warband. During their time serving the Emperor they were known, much like their parent chapter, for their ambush tactics and proficiency in the use of Jump Packs. A lesser known tendency of the Dust Lords was the use of bird-like mounts to traverse desert terrain (which would have been otherwise difficult due to their sheer size and weight). Their riding to war on these avian mounts was, out of necessity, kept secret from the majority of the Imperium.

  • The Dust Lords are simultaneously a renegade chapter of Space Marines and Chaos Space Marine warband. During their time serving the Emperor they were known, much like their parent chapter, for their ambush tactics and proficiency in the use of Jump Packs. A lesser known tendency of the Dust Lords was the use of bird-like mounts to traverse desert terrain (which would have been otherwise difficult due to their sheer size and weight). Their riding to war on these avian mounts was, out of necessity, kept secret from the majority of the Imperium. Witnesses of this eccentricity tended to also observe the rare gallantry of the Dust Lords and adhere to an unspoken code of silence, those who informed on them tended to be disregarded as liars or, at worst, heretics (such was their modest, but consistently positive reputation). Now they have been declared Excommunicate Traitoris by order of the Ordo Hereticus for reasons the Inquisition are not willing to openly disclose. Most assume they are just another chapter gone rogue, but the truth is far more complex. Sometime in the near future the Dust Lords, now traitors, entered the warp to be spat out not only before they entered (a rare but entirely possible phenomenon), but before they had even turned to Chaos. These dark counterparts now seek to orchestrate their own fall to Chaos as it was once orchestrated for them. So far they have been unsuccessful, only achieving excommunication. But whether the Dust Lords are resisting their fate, or unintentionally succumbing to it, remains to be seen.
