Shroud of Yrnax
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Shroud of Yrnax is an Astartes Space Marine Standard used by the Doom Eagles chapter.[1]
It was made from the remnants of a campaign standard from a joint effort by the Doom Eagles and the Deathwatch to put down a xenos-worshipping cult that had taken over the world of Yrnax. The cult's mad fanaticism meant the world was only reclaimed when every last inhabitant had been gunned down. The banner, torn and damaged in a desperate attack in the latter stages of the campaign, stands as a potent symbol of the lengths to which the Adeptus Astartes must sometimes go, and the grim prices that must be paid.[1]
