Contents
Overview
The Stormbringers are named after the overwhelming firepower their Devastators, Hellblasters, Suppressor, and Eliminators wield when deployed en masse. The 9th consists of those who have been promoted from 10th Company Scouts to fully-sworn Battle-Brothers. Though they may have fought for dozens, even hundreds of years since their days in the 9th Company, no Ultramarine ever forgets the pride of their admittance to the ranks of the 9th, and they look upon those newly inducted warriors with fraternal admiration. Of all the Chapter's Companies, the 9th are the most defensive and static in doctrine.[1]
The 9th is also charged with guarding and reclaiming relics of the Ultramarines under the guidance of their Captain Sinon, the Master of Relics.[1]
