"The scars upon my armor are not merely wounds from battle, but brands of shame. Once, we were the Luna Wolves, the embodiment of the Emperor's righteous fury, our names whispered with reverence across the galaxy. Now? We are but shadows of our former selves, our honor traded for the poisoned chalice of betrayal. The Primarch, whom we swore oaths to, the Legion, which we bled for...they have cast us into the abyss, transforming our legacy from valiant warriors into savage barbarians. The echoes of our glorious past mock us with each brutal act, each step we take further from the light of the Imperium. This shame...this is a wound that may never heal."All Rights Reserved

A Gift for the Long Hunt by Tyberos

The gift of the Rubicon Primaris and of the new, more powerful Primaris Marines is shared amongst the many chapters wich are part of the Adeptus Astartes organization. Welcomed by some, rejected or mistrusted by others, they are nevertheless a much favorable sight to the already thinly spread forces of the Imperium. Accompanied by the golden members of the Brotherhood of Demigods, the Custodians of Holy Terra, this new breed has reached all known and unknown Chapters, from the savage Space Wolves of Fenris to the tragic and rare Lamenters and beyond, yet one last offering is still to be made. Deep in the starless void, were monsters reside, great beasts hunt relentlessly. Long is their journey, started in the lost epoque of Pre-Unification. In Exile they are damned and by Duty bound, with Hunger they stalk and with the ichor of humanity's foes their thrist they Slake. Guardians, monsters, tyrants, slavers, sunderers, it matters not. Who leads and what they leave behind is nothing but a great Red Wake.

Ulvar: The Eternal Hunt by schtoff

In a galaxy consumed by endless war, glory is fleeting-only the hunt endures. Ulvar was born in the frozen wastes of Fenris, a predator before he ever wore the armor of the Adeptus Astartes. Forged in the crucible of the Space Wolves and tested in the black-clad ranks of the Deathwatch, he has hunted tyranids, purged daemons, and stood shoulder to shoulder with legends. But when dreams of a laughing beast in the Eye of Terror haunt his nights, Ulvar does what few dare-he answers the call alone. Presumed lost for nearly a century, he returns changed... and punished. Cast back into the shadows of the Deathwatch for a second Vigil, Ulvar finds the galaxy colder than he left it. Friends have become commanders. The mortal he once saved is now a battle-brother. And the beast may not be dead after all. As old war songs echo in his mind and a new darkness rises, Ulvar must decide what he truly is: A son of Russ? A penitent hunter? Or something far more dangerous? Because monsters still stalk the stars... and someone must hunt them. Book 2 in what I hope to be an omnibus of Deathwatch books.

The Hearth-Door: A Primarch's Vow by WarhammerEnthusiast

In the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium, there was one Primarch who refused to hate. Baram, the Shield of Jotunheim, Primarch of the Ironhearts (Vth Legion), was a bulwark of impossible strength and devastating compassion. He wielded the Hearth-Door, a colossal shield meant to guard every single soul, believing the true strength of the Imperium lay not in its weapons, but in the people he protected. But when Horus betrayed the Emperor, Baram was thrust into a civil war that shattered his vow of unity. He was forced to fight the rage of Angron, confront the chilling logic of Guilliman, and face the ultimate failure: he could not save his brothers. Now, as the Imperium burns, Baram makes one final, tragic choice: to reject the rules of war and retreat to the galactic edge. He will take his shattered Legion to the farthest reaches of the stars, becoming the Eternal Sentinel-the shield for the forgotten. This is the untold story of the Primarch who fought not for conquest, but for the broken hearts of humanity.

"In the ruthless universe of the far future there is only war." That is something that Kanan Scott knew very well. After two hundred years or more, as he never counted, he thought that his death would give him the opportunity for eternal rest in the Warhammer 40k universe. He could never be more wrong. A tragic twist in his fate, and regained memories of his past life as a Space Marine, caused his mind to undergo an abrupt rupture just to indulge the whims of an entity beyond his understanding.

The claws of the night by Scrapper_the_Rapper

What is an artist without it's public? these people nowadays do not understand what true art is, so I my only duty and passion shall be showing them the truth, my truth, as I turn the ignorant and the fool into beatiful representations of the cosmic engima that is this universe, and I repair their bodies to fit this cruel world better, as I reform them to display them in my collection, and wait for someone to finally understand what true art is.

The Iron Seraph by RedImperium

It was supposed to be an ordinary strike mission. Get in, kill the xenos, liberate the human captives, and get out. But that was not what happened. Sergeant Adrian Aurelius embarked in a drop pod, alone; ready to make planetfall. But mysterious phenomena propelled the Astartes onto a planet that was not the intended target... nor within the system the battle was taking place... Neither was it within the same galaxy. This story follows his adventures in this new world, as he is forced to adapt to the environment around him... and whatever else it may contain.

Lifetime of war by Breagen

In the grim future of the 41st millennium, the galaxy knows only war. As both Chaos and Tyranids' threats intensify, countless worlds are destined to fall. Simultaneously, the once galaxies rulers - Eldars, are crumbling, weakened by their own low population, division, and consequences of their own past sins. The Imperium still vigilantly stands. However, its armies are dwindling, outmatched or outnumbered by numerous enemies. Is it the end? Is there no salvation for these races? Perhaps there is. Maybe, the boredom and pettiness will bore a key to that? Maybe, something stirrers in the Immaterium that would change the setting?
