Background
The Marines Malevolent were deployed during the [[Third War for Armageddon]]. They deployed two companies,{{Fn|5}} a fairly small number, although evidence shows they had [[Whirlwind]] artillery support.{{Cite this}}
They have an arrogance about them that has brought many requests for [[Inquisitorial]] investigation. {{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3}} An example of this was during an [[Ork]] attack on a refugee camp the [[Emperor's Deliverance Refugee Camp]] near [[Hades Hive]]. {{Fn|14}} In excess of five thousand Orks penetrated the defences of the camp and took the entire population, over 12,000 refugees and nearly 1,000 member of the [[Adeptus Ministorum]] as hostages. The Marines Malevolent proceeded to use their Whirlwind anti-personnel artillery pieces to bombard the Orks while they were still in the camp. On the proceeding attack to retake the camp, a huge amount of collateral damage had been done to the camp's population. Nearly four thousand refugees had been killed, but the Marines Malevolent seemed to believe them to be acceptable casualties. In a conversation with {{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3}}{{Fn|14}} When [[Colonel]] [[Destrier Celestine]] of the Armageddon Command Guardcomplained of this, the Marines Malevolent [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Vinyar]] spat on him{{Fn|14}} then gave a speech that was tantamount to saying that those in the camp were not worthy of living and about speaking of his force's supremacy in war, before turning round to face the [[Salamanders]] [[Chapter Master]] [[Tu'Shan]], who verbally rebuked Vinyar on his chapter's actions, saying they had betrayed those they were sworn to protect.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3}} The Marines Malevolent were seen later in the same campagin administering beatings to civilians and purposefully withholding aid for them.{{Fn|14}}
