==Overview==
The Interex maintained a close alliance with alien races such as the [[Kinebrach]]. They were encountered by the [[Luna Wolves]] during the Great Crusade. The technology of the Interex was in many ways more advanced than that of the [[Imperium]]'s, but was not as strongly focused on the waging of war.
Devoted to fighting chaos, (they referred to it as 'Kaos') they regarded the [[63rd expedition]] sceptically, as they thought they might be tainted by it. They were in talks with Horus and his peers when a marine Erebus, First Chaplain of the Word Bearers, who was tainted by the powers of Chaos , infiltrated a an Interex museum housing alien artifacts , stole a sword containing a Daemon, and sabotaged the building to explode, which in many ways affirmed their initial beliefs. Fights broke out between Space Marines and Interex forces until Warmaster Horus was successfully evacuated off planet.
It should be noted that the Interex warriors were quite a match for the Space Marines under Horus' Command.
