With a reputation for unpredictability, some on the [[Iron Council]] say Clan Raukaan has broken with logic in favor of emotion. However none can ignore their achievements, and many fleets of the [[Indomitus Crusade]] have been thankful of the Clan's unorthodoxy. That being said, their unpredictability has also led to suffering such as in the doomed [[Sabbyst Planetstrike]]. It is thanks to the efforts of [[Iron Father]] [[Feirros]] on the [[Iron Council]] that Clan Raukaan has maintained its status as the 3rd Company but the Clan's enemies wait for a moment for him and Iron-Captain [[Klaarc Kalag]], to slip up. The clan's sacrifices are immortalized by a large number of [[Dreadnought]]s even for the standards of the Iron Hands.{{Fn|5}}
The Clan itself suffered heavy losses after the [[Skarvus Ambush]] and were subsequently led by [[Iron Father]] [[Kristos]] until the [[Gaudinian Heresy]], when Kristos became corrupted by [[Slaanesh]].{{Fn|3b}} [[Arven Rauth]] assumed control of the Clan in the aftermath of the Gaudinian Heresy, and he led Raukaan in the [[Purging of Contqual]] against the forces of [[Chaos]] in 812.[[M41]].{{Fn|1b}}{{Fn|1c}} Later, they took part in the [[Thirteenth Black Crusade_#The Battle of Medusa|Battle of Medusa]] during the [[Thirteenth Black Crusade]].{{Fn|2}} Since the formation of the [[Great Rift]] they have also experienced glory during the [[Indomitus Crusade]] but also incidents of shame such as strife with the [[Imperial Fists]] at [[Xalladin]]. [[Iron-Captain]] [[Sing Sind Grolvoch]] was killed in the [[Sabbyst Planestrike]] by [[Fulgrim]] himself and in the aftermath [[Klaarc Kalag]] has taken command.{{Fn|5}}
Marines of the Clan are known to speak in a [[Medusa (Planet)|Medusan]] dialect known as [[Tergiza]].{{Fn|1b}}
