The '''Champions of Fenris''',{{Fn|1}} formerly the '''1st Great Company "The Breakers of Rings"''',{{Fn|9a}} is one of the twelve active [[Great Company|Great Companies]] of the [[Space Wolves]], falling under the direct control of [[Great Wolf]] [[Logan Grimnar]] himself.{{Fn|1}} It is the largest of the Great Companies.{{Fn|8}} When [[Primarch]] [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]] personally led the Space Wolves, the 1st Great Company formed his veteran guard.{{Fn|9b}}
==Overview==
When it was still known as the "1st Great Company", the unit was formed by selected veterans who followed their Primarch into battle. Most of the great company were Varagyr [[Terminator Armour|Terminators]], later known as "Wolf Guards".{{Fn|9b}} In the present day, the The Champions of Fenris are fanatically loyal to their leader [[Logan Grimnar]]. Each warrior is extremely proud of his link to the supreme lord of the [[Chapter]], and constantly vies with his peers for their masters favour. Logan Grimnar firmly believes that a battle can be carried by a few heroes in the right place at the right time, and as such makes effective use of the many [[Wolf Guard]]{{Fn|1}} and [[Venerable Dreadnought]]s{{Fn|8}} in his Great Company. It also maintains a large complement of [[Wolf Priests]], [[Rune Priest]]s, and [[Iron Priest]]s that are loaned to other Great Companies when needed.{{Fn|8}}
