The Partisans are secessionist rebels who live in the Untill marshlands of the planet Gereon.[1]
Descendants of religious radicals amongst the early human colonists, they believe in an independent Gereon and resist the rule of both the Imperium and Chaos. They still speak Old Gothic, rather than the Low Gothic common tongue of the Imperium.[1]
"Partisans" is the name applied to them by the majority Imperial population. Their own name for themselves is Nihtgane, which translates to "nightwalkers" in Low Gothic. This term is mistranslated by the Imperial population as either "Sleepwalkers" or "noctambulists". Likewise, their name for the Untill is the Niht.[1]
