This is a tweaked version of the original where the entire chapter was made up of untouchables (long before I signed up to this forum), so I've made some changes to make it more plausible.

I won't be delving into their lore properly until the chapter's composition works (note I want to keep the untouchable element in).

So please tell me what you think and where alteration could be made.

Chapter Terminology.

Cohorts – Equivalent of companies.
The Einherjar – Veteran 1st company
Hersir Slayers – The chapter's terminators (Tartaros pattern).
Ulfsark Squads – Mixture of tactical marines and scouts.
Huskarl Squads – Devastator squads which typically use heavy bolters and flamers.
Stridende Squads – Assault squads
Aspirant – Scout
The Bannlyst Kin – This is made up from the chapter's untouchables, and are believed to chosen by the god Emperor to bear such a gift. As a result of this they're issued with some of the most advanced armour, weapons and equipment the chapter has at it's disposal. Such equipment also includes personal teleporters similar to those used by the Grey Knights' Interceptor Squads.

The Bannlyst Kin are also the most rigorously trained members of the chapter, becoming masters of melee combat.
