  1. Water: The Knights Oceanus- "Big Kahunas/Surf Marines"
  2.  
  3. A Death Cult that is on great terms with the Adeptas Sororitas, this Divergent Chapter was founded in the 39th Millenium to have a Standing Force on a Feral Ocean World often used as a base by Chaos Pirates (they really hate Chaos Pirates). Their Progenitor is the Imperial Fists, and they have pure gene stock. Their first and foremost priority is to uphold the honor of the Emperor. The chapter doesn't field Techmarines.
  4.  
  5. The chapter produces "Chainshields" that, on full power, move their chains so quickly they hover in midair. One Marine got the idea to stand on these weapons, and the rest is history- for now this chapter rides their Chainshields into battle. These are only their most famous armament though, for they wear meltagrenades on strings around their necks, as well as skirts made from monofilament grasses native to their homeworld.
  6.  
  7. Their Combat Doctrine: Terror. For they fall upon their enemies riding flying storms of metal to punch them in their bitch face. For they must fight eye-to-eye, as guns tend to jam in the wet, salty air of their homeworld- part of the reason they don't field techmarines.
  8.  
  9. The chapter's figure of Legend was a Chief Librarian who, during a tremendous tsunami that threatened to drown his subordinates, used an extra-large print copy of the Codex Astartes to surf them all to safety.
  10.  
  11. Tenets of the Knights Oceanus:
  12. >Each day is to be cherished- though the Emperor has granted it to you, one day you will not return from battle.
  13. >Your shield must remain waxed. For a rusty shield can bring its wielder no glory.
  14. >Should you engrave an image on your shield, be sure it is one that will strike terror into the foes of the Emperor- dragons, tikis, and sharks yes, kittens, babies, and puppies no.
  15. >Techmarines shall not be deployed in battle- for the world's air is poison to our tools, and they must work to keep them intact.
