The Silver Drakes are a Space Marine Chapter.[1]
History
The Silver Drakes were among the Primaris Space Marine Chapters created during the Ultima Founding, at the direct order of Roboute Guilliman.[1]
In the aftermath of the Great Rift's creation, the Chapter was charged by Guilliman with turning back the advancement of Hive Fleet Ouroboris. Though their tactics are effective against the Xenos, the Silver Drakes' numbers are few and the isolated Chapter has now dug in for a bloody running war with the Hive Fleet.[1] They dispatched a request for aid which was answered by Imperium Nihilus Regent Dante, who has sent the Charnel Guard, Blood Dragons, and Sable Knights to aid them. In addition Eldar emissaries have arrived and offered aid.[2]
