Like most chapters, the Oathkeepers Chapter can trace its Gene-Seed back through the various foundings to the Ultramarines. However, the link is tenuous, as the Chapter features a number of slightly divergent traits, although this is to be expected considering how far removed from the original Chapter they are, given that Administratum records show their founding during M36. Further, the gene-seed itself is not pure; Oathkeepers marines lack the Melanchromic organ, similar to that of the Salamanders.

  • Like most chapters, the Oathkeepers Chapter can trace its Gene-Seed back through the various foundings to the Ultramarines. However, the link is tenuous, as the Chapter features a number of slightly divergent traits, although this is to be expected considering how far removed from the original Chapter they are, given that Administratum records show their founding during M36. Further, the gene-seed itself is not pure; Oathkeepers marines lack the Melanchromic organ, similar to that of the Salamanders. These deviations are, on the whole, fairly minor, and are mostly the result of access to equipment, or lack thereof; They have no access to suits of Terminator Armour or heavy tanks such as the Land Raider, for instance. As a result many standard tactics as laid out in the Codex Astartes are either impossible to use or simply impractical. The Chapter's most notable achievement (at least according to Administratum records; there may be many more actions that are waiting to be officially recorded or are still ongoing) is turning the tide of a Chaos incursion on Celestis IX, when an Infantry contingent of the Second Company without supporting assets halted a raiding force of Traitor Guardsmen as they assailed an Adeptus Titanicus facility, having broken a PDF regiment that was already assigned to guard the installation. The Company itself had been in transit to carry out an attack on Tau forces on Nimbosa, but was diverted to repel this assault. Traitor guardsmen captured in the assault spoke of “white daemons” who broke many of their formations with massed Bolter fire before descending upon the survivors in a flurry of Adamantium blades. Indeed, many believed that the Oathkeepers were a much larger force than they actually were – the high rate of aimed Bolter fire gave the distinct impression of entrenched heavy weapons, even to the defenders who were aware that there were none.
