Malkitor lashed at the Chapter Master. Asherian having knowledge of the Daemon. Muttered the Daemons true name. The Daemon Malkitor screamed as Asherian took his Halbred and beheaded the beast. Banishing it for untold millennia. The Chaos Gods themselves screamed in pain as their connection to their forces was severed. Asherian took the luxury of collapsing. And took the view of the planet. Saying “This world will never be the same.” The Chaos forces sensing their masters defeat retreated in complete disarray. Leaving the planet as the Dusk Legion forces chased the Chaos Forces off planet.
But what greeted the chaos forces was the combined fleets of the Dusk Legion and the Drancorian Armada. The Chaos Forces were wiped out as the Dusk Legion Battle Barge Storm’s Visage fired its main cannon upon the chaos fleet. The Chaos Crusade was ended in its tracks.

The Dusk Legion victorious and they successfully allowed an alliance between the Imperium and Drancorian empire to begin. The Drancorian Council then took Asherian’s offer for protection. Giving the chapter permission to use their empire for whatever they wished. The Dusk Legion having found a new home accepted the terms. And built their fortress Monestary in the Core System of Dranis. Taking the world of Dranco as their fortress.
One Hundred Years later The Inquisition arrived at the Chapter homeworld. Wishing to speak to Asherian. Asherian then agreed to a secret parely to the Inquisition. The Inquisition having seen the Dusk Legion only 160 years ago. They told Asherian that they had use of his chapter’s companies. Seeing that they had fought a war by themselves. Asherian was then told that his chapter could exceed the amount of 3,000. Asherian agreed to the terms. His chapter’s most elite would forever serve the Inquisition later to be known as the Alpha Squadron. This at that moment’s task was something more sinister.

Asherian was then taken by the Grey Knights. The Dusk Legionaries believed that he had disappeared. No one knows what became of him. But his chapter after his Disappearance the chapter reforged itself into the Storm Crusaders. Forever sentenced to crusade against the enemies of the Imperium and to destroy any and all warp tainted beings within the Imperium. Or any Astartes chapter that was renegade. They would become chapter hunters. Destroying entire chapters, that proved to be traitors in the eyes of the holy Inqusition. The Dusk Legion took the name of the Storm Crusaders, from the Storm’s Visage, and the loyal crew of the Crusader Spirit (Who had suffered a fate worse than death). And then taking the colors of Asherian’s Personnel Heraldry.
This war would later been named the Crusade of Asherian.


Matt Ward, is that you?

Really, this makes Matt Ward seem like Evelyn Waugh.

Just... what? What do you mean?

Moreover, do you really believe that every word in your sentence (such as it is) needs to be capitalised? You do know English doesn't work that way, yes?

I Understand That But I Do It Naturally, I Believe It Has Become A Habit Of Mine. The Other Section Is About It Being Rumoured That Matt Ward Will Write Multiple Codeces In The Sixth Edition Of Warhamer 40,00 As He Has In Fantasy.

Its kinda funny since I decided personally to discontinue the Crusaders as they seem so Mary sue its appalling to my latest writing skills to look at. (That was like amonth ago, now i am focusing on writing fantasy which is indeed easier to write. Can't explain it say it was magic that did it.)

Well instead of retconning them you should just tone them down so that they fit in with the established lore.

Here we go:
Chapter Name: Storm Crusaders

The Storm Crusaders are one of the roughly 1000 Chapters of Imperial Space Marines, and are rather unique in their organization (to the disgust of many Codex-adhering Chapters). First of all, they have almost triple the codex-standard Marines, though this is often mitigated by the fact that there has never been a time in the chapter's history where the entire chapter has fought together. Its first chapter master was Asherian, a renowned psyker whose greatest triumph was over a powerful Daemon, and this legend will be told by the chapter until the end of times. However, although he slew the beast, it was at a great cost to his body and soul. For the rest of his time as Chapter Master, he would not participate in any major combat operations.

Although their organization is quite odd, the chapter is always one of the first to volunteer if the Inquisition is in need of a company or more of Imperial Marines to enforce its brutal practices. This is a practice begun by Asherian and is still continued to this day, although not many chapters would agree with the cruel methods that the Crusaders use when employed by the Inquisition.

Aaand there you go. Of course it can use more work, but I feel that it makes for a fairly interesting chapter.

Kind Regards,
Vladsimpaler

Yeah that works. Thing is I am so busy. But I got time to kill so.
What the hell.
Thanks though.
couldn't really think of a good ending for Asherian apart from he couldn't do anything after that.
