8th Company, Raven Guard Chapter
The 8th Company of the Raven Guard, known as "The Unseen", is one of the Chapter's Reserve Companies.[1a][1b][4]
The 8th serves as the Raven Guard's Close Support Squad reserves but in keeping with the Chapter's tenets are often found fighting their own campaigns. Its force provides the Raven Guard with a ready supply of close-quarters warriors, steeped in swift and deadly fighting styles of which Corax was once master. Favouring Jump Packs and Lightning Claws, the 8th will enter the fray from gunships and sweep down into the foe. Their Jump Packs are modified to mimic the hunting cries of Kiavahran rocs. However the Unseen are not without flaws, for the 8th suffers from the Sable Brand over any other Company and are known to suffer the worst attrition rates of any in the Chapter.[1b]
