History
The Warband was originally the Steel Cobras Space Marine Chapter, until they turned to heresy and hid from Imperial forces on the Ice World Tukaroe VII. However they soon became trapped by a Chaos tainted storm and then became sick, as infections quickly spread amongst them. With his warriors dying, the Steel Cobras' Chapter Master, Akhasis Blain, made a pact with a mysterious wanderer known as Barkahran, who promised he could save the Chapter if they dedicated themselves to Nurgle. The Steel Cobras agreed and became the Children of Blain, who have since become one of the Death Guard's many Warbands.[1]
While the Warband still wears the same bronze-green armour of the Steel Cobras, they now paint sections of it white to represent Tukaroe VII, where they were reborn as Nurgle's servants.[1]
