Changes

This race was first encountered shortly after the [[Horus Heresy]] and was previously unknown to the [[Imperium]]. At this time, the [[Crimson Fists]] [[Chapter]] engaged the xenos and cleansed their home system. During the Crusade, they specialised in underhanded surprise tactics and preferred the use of much-feared venom-based weaponry. During the war they met with only limited success but were able to strike down [[Alexis Polux]], the first [[Chapter Master]] of the Crimson Fists. Some were able to survive the xenocide, and the race lives on as mercenaries, often offering services as assassins. Like the [[Tarellian]]s, they are always keen to exact revenge against the hated Imperium.{{Fn|1}}
