==Background==
The {{PAGENAME}} Red Talons are a [[Second Founding]] Successor Chapter of the [[Iron Hands]]{{Fn|5}}, first commanded by the infamous [[Horus Heresy]] veteran [[Autek Mor]] and recruited from among the most aggressive and volatile warriors of their parent Legion. They are known for their bold style of warfare and never-ending vendetta against the [[Traitor Legions]]. The Chapter has also been charged several times by the [[Lords of Terra]] with hunting down and destroying renegade [[Space Marine Chapters]].{{Fn|10}}
Their home world of [[Raikan]], lies within the [[Segmentum Tempestus]]{{Fn|6}} and their [[power armour]] is red with black trim. Their chapter symbol is a set of red birds talons on a black circular background and likely ties the Chapter's history to [[Medusa (Planet)|Medusa's]] [[Clan Morragul]], as they share the same symbol.{{Fn|7}}
