'''{{PAGENAME}}''' are a [[Knight House]] of the [[Imperium]].{{Fn|1a}}
==Overview==
One of Raven's first rulers, Lord [[Grunwald]], introduced a knightly elite within the House known as the '''Companions'''. This inner circle comprises many of the most powerful and experienced knights of the house. The majority of them are [[Knight Errant]] and [[Knight Paladin]] pattern suits. Another sub-order within the House known as the '''Iron Brotherhood''' also exists, comprising of a skilled band of [[Sacristan]]s from Metalica.{{Fn|1b}}
During the [[Charadon Campaign]] some 4/5ths of the House left for war, leaving their homeworld of [[Kolossi]] vulnerable. The [[Daemon Prince]] [[Be'lakor]] struck, unleashing a wave of madness and darkness that consumed the world. The situation collapsed completely when several of House Raven's corrupted Knights turned on their allies, and Kolossi was lost.{{Fn|11a}} Since the fall of their homeworld, House Raven has pledged to fight on as a crusading house.{{Fn|11b}} They remain sworn to Metalica, who continues to support them with vessels, equipment, and [[Sacristan]]s. Princeps [[Grevan]] has overseen the slow rebuilding of the House and their numbers, but they can no longer afford to deploy them recklessly to any conflict. Their Knights now inflict maximum carnage for the fewest risks.{{Fn|1414a}}
During the [[Arks of Omen Campaign]], House Raven Knights took part in the relief force to [[Marwent's Reach]] after learning their hated enemy [[House Korvax]], who has taken up residence on Kolossi, was involved in the invasion.{{Fn|12}}
