Heres my Ork clan!, Advice will be helpful!.

Overview:

The Blood Troopaz are a less known Clan, who are rarely spoken about by other races because of the Terrors they inflict upon them. They are called the Blood Troopaz because they have a bloodthirst even unsettling for a great Warboss. They have only taken part in 2 WAAAAAAAHH! at this current time, due to them being a newer clan, However they are being studied closely as they are apparently founding a new WAAAAAGH!, with them and their Warboss Gaw-Kraka.

History:

A small group of Orks abandoned by the Goff Clan were left on a world called Atrocitas, this was shortly after the horus Heresy and thus the Orks were never found and exterminated by the Imperium. They slowly exterminated the local hospitable wildlife and became a dominant Clan on the planet, scavenging supplies from the WAAAGH! and building a high functioning tribe. After this the Warboss at the time (Name unknown) donned the tribe as the Blood Troopaz, as they drank the blood of the corpses belonging to the imperial guards who were slaughtered when the Orks were left behind from the WAAAAGH!.

Equipment:

The Blood Troopaz are a Melee oriented clan, so they have less Shootas than the average clan. But have the time to equip their Choppas with such things which will give more pain to the enemy.
A imperial Guardsman stationed on the planet Yeokal had a statement after the planet had been raided by the clan.

"The pain, oh may the Emperor have mercy. They had this like…"Purple" liquid, it had been mixed din with the blood and intestines of my division members. I think that made it worse. The huge abomination of metal and sharp spikes was smashed into my left shoulder with the power of…I'm not even sure…The gargantuan greenskin was about to finish me off and behead me, before a group of Karskins saved my skin. Whilst i was being dragged away from the bloodbath, i saw this…purple salt like substance growing into my veins, the pain was tremendous, sharp pain like a spike had been pushed into all sides of your body…it was un-holy"

It appears the substance was Pain-Gritz, a type of salt used by the Blood Troopaz to incarcerate their foes so they could perform a brutal finish to them.

A armour on a Blood Troopa is more than protective, it acts as a piece of psychological warfare, equipped with metal stakes and intestines from comrades of their next victim.
The rest is average for a Ork, although the colour of their clothing is slightly different. Clothes are dipped in Blood and Black paint, which gives a ultimately Dark colour on their clothing (overalls, Boots e.g) Whilst their armour is Red paint over layered with blood, sometimes form the Ork itself. A Black cap with a red spike is also given to Blood Troopaz who are tougher than the rest.

Traditions:

The traditions are feared by many, the Blood Troopaz are known to perform a ritual known to them as "Spikin'"

A Elysian Drop trooper by the name of Yaidan Incubilbius reported a encounter of this.

"I was watching from a Mechanicum balcony, i was hidden behind a couple sandbags and the mutilated bodies of my comrades. I peered over, we was fighting for about 5 days, in a city centre full of metal, trenches, bodies…and i saw this huge rusty metal stake about 13 feet high. Poor sod with a cadian outfit on him was behind ushered by 4 massive green skins covered in Black and red. One had a massive horn on his helmet covered in blood, and you never believe what he did to it. The Cadian bloke was stripped of all his clothes, undergarments and all, and he was picked up by these 4 big monsters-you saw the claws digging into the skin and all-i stared at it, not knowing what to happen next. They then threw this screaming bloke onto the stake, and by the emperor, there was blood and gore everywhere, the poor man was screaming and crying for help, i even felt pain staring at him. Once he was right at the bottom of the stake, still half alive…they tore him limb to limb, until his was dead, the big one with the horn then ripe rout his heart whilst the other were eating the arms and legs…and impaled it onto his horn…thank god the commissar was with me, we charged down and avenged the poor boy and killed the abominations which caused his demise".

The 17 year old Cadian White-Sheild was called Sanguin Puer, this was his first battle and he was captured by the Blood Troopaz five minutes in to the firefight.

Doctrine:

The Blood Troopaz often encourage Melee and short ranged shooting into their ranks, and have a steady supply of Nobz and Storm-Boys.

So, i know its slightly short, but i hope you can appreciate it!.
