The Champions of Fenris is one of the twelve active Great Companies of the Space Wolves, falling under the direct control of Great Wolf Logan Grimnar himself.[1] It is the largest of the Great Companies.[8]

Overview

Before Logan Grimnar's ascension as Great Wolf, the Champions of Fenris were known as the Night Runners.[12]

Today, the Champions of Fenris are fanatically loyal to their leader, Logan Grimnar. Each warrior is extremely proud of his link to the supreme lord of the Chapter, and constantly vies with his peers for their masters favour. Logan Grimnar firmly believes that a battle can be carried by a few heroes in the right place at the right time, and as such makes effective use of the many Wolf Guard[1] and Venerable Dreadnoughts[8] in his Great Company. It also maintains a large complement of Wolf Priests, Rune Priests, and Iron Priests that are loaned to other Great Companies when needed.[8]

Conflicting sources

The company's emblem seem to vary between both a moon behind a wolf's head and The Wolf that walks the stars, a wolf standing on its hind legs on a dark background with stars. This happens in both older[9] and more recent sources.[10]
