The 12th Legion were Largely recruited from Old Albia and the Nord Enclaves with a scattering of other recruits from across Terra. After the liberation of Sol large numbers of Luna recruits were used to bulk out the Legion to Crusade strength alongside a number of ships and crews from the Saturine fleet (Many still displaying their Signature Scythe Heraldry today). During the Early Crusade the legion picked up the nickname "The Steel Wolves" after the victory parade on Helion where the newly promoted Legion Master met Malcador for the first time and remarked he had a "mind of Steel to lead his pack of wolves".

== '''History''' ==

'''
Early crusade'''

The early history of the VII the legion is an unusual one. Raised shortly after the unification war on Terra they where one of the first legions to be created solely from their lost Primarch gene seed. As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theater. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psychic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.
'''

== Combat Doctrine ==
The Sons of sorren are a precise tool that should not be deployed lightly. The legion specializes in Psychic espionage, infiltration, cyber warfare, precision strikes, orbital assault and subjugation. Though perfectly capable of annihilating any foe they are set against, they are best employed against rogue human elements or situations where collateral damage is to be kept to a minimum.

the legion favors a cautious approach taking their time to gather intelligence on their targets. For months the system is scanned both physically and psykicly and infiltrated where possible. The next stage is one of electronic warfare. Codes are cracked, data vaults plundered, troop dispositions analyzed and tactics adjusted and weapons chosen.

As the legion moves into position the first sign of their presence is a precision barrage of emp warheads and phycic suppression of any technology. As whole cities go dark, orbital batteries shut down and scanners fail the legion makes its move. They come in drop ships or via teleport moving as one against the enemy positions. Swarms of servo skulls precede them further confirming enemy potions and then the killing begins.

The silent sons sing no songs. No battle cry passes their lips instead it is the roar of their bolters and the crushing power of their will that announce their presence. Their maneuvers or perfect their communication instantaneous their knowledge of enemy positions unmatched. Weak willed foes simply surrender there and then their wills broken by a wave to dread and terror that precedes the legions vanguard. Those who do not flee or surrender are butchered without mercy.

Once the fighting is over the true subjugation of the foe begins and The Flagellum Meam are deployed. Human populations are rounded up and enslaved in all but name. Xenos populations are simply put to the sword. The conquered have their will broken by the legions mental domination. Great censuses are held and all those deemed problematic are displaced and lobotomized before being given to the mechanicum to become servitors. Any found to have psychic potential given over to the black ships that accompany the legions expdition fleets. The cream of this harvest is sent back to Silencium for indoctrination in the primarch dominion the rest sent to Earth to Feed the Astronomicon.

When the imperial governing bodies take over they find feverishly eager populations glad to take on any tithe or hardship at the mere promise that their psykic subjugaters never return.

== Unique Formations''' ==

''' The Evocati'''

In a legion where strong psychs ability is the norm the Evocati stand out. If the average legionary is a High Delta on the psychic scale the members of the Evocati Covens are all Gamma level and above. These gifted psykers are the ones who perform the feats of psychic might the legion is renowned for. It is they who cast their minds out into the void to spy upon enemy positions. it is they who infiltrate the minds of the enemy command structure and advise the Grand Diminus where to strike. It is they who break the resolve of armies and cause star ship crews to scupper their own vessels. They are the Primarch chosen and masters of their craft. It is form thier ranks that the legions leaders are drawn. Each of the Grand Domini have served in the Evocati without exception. There are currently 9 Evocati covens active within the legion. 8 are personally assigned to the Grand Dominus's and their Cohorts. The 9th known as the inner circle serve the Primarch personally. Though the majority of the Evocati like the Domini they are assigned too do not take the field there are exceptions. Some among their number have gifts better suited for the front lines and they form the tip of the spear. Bedecked in Tactical Dreadnought Armour they march with the legionaries bringing lighting, fire and crushing telekinetic force to bear on the Imperiums foes.

''' The Flagellum Meam '''

Once a world is conquered the The Flagellum Meam are deployed. It is this branch of the legion that performs the subjugation and enslaving of the civilian populous. The Flagellum Meam consists of a score of Astartes led police battalions drawn form among the Solencium PDF. Their task is to pave the way for the arrival of Imperial departments responsible for indoctrinating newly conquered worlds into the Imperium of man. This task is performed in the following manner. Local government and law enforcement is suborned and brought under psykicly reprogrammed where required. Once this initial step is complete a census is taken of the planets civilian population and resources. Mind probes are employed to hunt out Dissidents. Once uncovered those deemed to be problematic are displaced, concentrated and handed over to the Mechanicum to be turned into servitors. Those Found to have no value are simply euthanized. Any civilians found to have psykic potential are given over to the black ships and the The Nigrum Nauta for further processing. Finally after several months the newly pacified planet is handed over the imperial authorities and The Flagellum Meam rejoins the legion.

''' The Nigrum Nauta '''

It should come as no surprise that a legion consisting solely of psykers Should have a close relationship with the black ships. From the discovery that the legions gene seed would only take root in those with psychic abilities the 8th legion has always worked closely with the Black ships. With the coming of the Primarch this relationship strengthened and resulted in The Nigrum Nauta or the black mariners.
The Nigrum Nauta exist to provide Astartes support to the crews Black ships in pursuit of their duties. Over the last few decades each of the black ships have heen assigned at least a half if not a full strength squadron of Astartes. to aid them in their task. Though these astartes hold no command role abroad the Ships their expertise is invaluable in capturing and proseesing of those whos gifts have developed out of control.
Consequentially those recruited into this service though psykers themselves are extensively trained in anti psyker ops. Limiter collars and psykic nullification fields are heavily used where the legionaries natural aptitude for mental manipulation fails. The Nigrum Nauta differs from the legions other unique formations as they spend a most of their time away form the legion and Sorrens direct supervision though all report to him when able. Though some might wonder why one who looks down on non psykers might willingly aid in what, on the surface at least, appears to be the full scale suppression of this own kind the primarch motivations are plain. By Crewing the ships the legion gets first pick of the ships harvest further expanding their ability to recruits. And so The Nigrum Nauta sail on into the void and with each planet they tithe the legions power grows.

== Legion Homeworld ==

'''The Silencium Sector'''

On the edge of the ultima sector the Silencium system sports 3 habitable planets and an asteroid belt. The system is heavily populated and each planet is more or less self sufficed dotted with a geometric pattern hives, manufactorum and agri complexes. Despite heavy industrialization the air is clean, the waters still pure and vast green belts surround the rising cities. Life is good on these world though decidedly different form every where else in the imperium as the whole population is telepathic. To walk its fields and boulevards is a solem and strange experience. No one speaks as mind to mind and noospheric communication has been the norm for centuries. There is no poverty almost no social unrest and the population is united beneath the primarchs psykic dominion working together for the glory of the new imperium. Tech priests and mechanical augmentation are common sights and the manufacturing facilies are more than capable of supplying the legion that calls the system its home.

== Primarch ==

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent Primarch is a grim and foreboding figure. Among the Primarch he is of but average stature. His features though classical are not comley. Infact they have a cold cruel air to them. His skull is implanted with gold ans silver circuity. Among his borther primarch however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour, chased with green and gold, shimmers with frost. His will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to let no other than his father hear his true voice, he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of his servo skulls. he skulls in question swarm around him constantly around him constantly scanning, measuring and analyzing everything he sees. Via vex he does not mince worlds as the servo skulls rob him of inflection or vocal subtlety. Mind to mind is a different matter all together. there he speaks with eloquence and nuance but only when it suits him.

Though appearing distant and aloof to most the Primarch is fiercely loyal to those he thinks of as his friends and Fanaticly loyal to his father the Emperor. He is also strangely protective of his legionaries a clear side effect of the physic communion he shares with them. He is not beyond sacrificing them where he must however as Sorren draws breath for one reason. To see the imlerkum accendant and the a galaxy united as one beneath the Emperors benevolent rule.

== The coming of the Primarch ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the lesser and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic Communions with his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meeting In the flesh Sorren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren

== Culture and Beliefs ==

The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.
Having inherited their primarch prejudices they finding verbal communication to be inefficient, vulgar and beneath them. They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non psykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading. With every worlds dominated and stripped of its pshykers their population and power grows and so does the primarchs ambitions. Though none can conclusively prove it it is whispered that his secret goal is that one day the whole imperium will be as Solencium. United in telepathic and technoglogical harmony Ruled over by the the greatest phycic mind the universe has ever known. That of the Emperor of man kind. And Sorren as his right hand. The primarch accepts that his dream will not be fulfilled any time soon but if anything he is patient. Patient and methodical. A mere 15000 years should do it. And what do the immortals have but time.

== Geneseed ==

The Gene seed of Sorren the silent is unique among the Primarchs as it will only take route in those with strong pshycic potential. Implantation in non psykers has a 97.823 mortality rate among aspirin recruits which imposed severe limitation on the legions original numbers. Consequentialy until the discovery of the solencuim system and the reunification with the primarch the legions recruits where almost solely drawn form the Black ships. When implanted in one with latent or already developed phycic ability the gene seed flourishes. As it enhances the flesh is also enhances the mind. Though some develop additional gifts all of the Silent Sons are strong Telepaths and mental manipulators. Both these advantages are heavily relied upon and play integral roles in the legions Doctrines and organization .

Once uncovered those deemed to be problematic are displaced, concentrated and handed over to the Mechanicum to be turned into servitors. Those Found to have no value are simply euthanized. Any civilians found to have psykic potential are given over to the black ships and the The Nigrum Nauta for further processing. Finally after several months the newly pacified planet is handed over the imperial authorities and The Flagellum Meam rejoins the legion.

''' The Nigrum Nauta '''

It should come as no surprise that a legion consisting solely of psykers Should have a close relationship with the black ships. From the discovery that the legions gene seed would only take root in those with psychic abilities the 8th legion has always worked closely with the Black ships. With the coming of the Primarch this relationship strengthened and resulted in The Nigrum Nauta or the black mariners.
The Nigrum Nauta exist to provide Astartes support to the crews Black ships in pursuit of their duties. Over the last few decades each of the black ships have heen assigned at least a half if not a full strength squadron of Astartes. to aid them in their task. Though these astartes hold no command role abroad the Ships their expertise is invaluable in capturing and proseesing of those whos gifts have developed out of control.
Consequentially those recruited into this service though psykers themselves are extensively trained in anti psyker ops. Limiter collars and psykic nullification fields are heavily used where the legionaries natural aptitude for mental manipulation fails. The Nigrum Nauta differs from the legions other unique formations as they spend a most of their time away form the legion and Sorrens direct supervision though all report to him when able. Though some might wonder why one who looks down on non psykers might willingly aid in what, on the surface at least, appears to be the full scale suppression of this own kind the primarch motivations are plain. By Crewing the ships the legion gets first pick of the ships harvest further expanding their ability to recruits. And so The Nigrum Nauta sail on into the void and with each planet they tithe the legions power grows.

'''The Silencium Sector'''

On the edge of the ultima sector the Silencium system sports 3 habitable planets and an asteroid belt. The system is heavily populated and each planet is more or less self sufficed dotted with a geometric pattern hives, manufactorum and agri complexes. Despite heavy industrialization the air is clean, the waters still pure and vast green belts surround the rising cities. Life is good on these world though decidedly different form every where else in the imperium as the whole population is telepathic. To walk its fields and boulevards is a solem and strange experience. No one speaks as mind to mind and noospheric communication has been the norm for centuries. There is no poverty almost no social unrest and the population is united beneath the primarchs psykic dominion working together for the glory of the new imperium. Tech priests and mechanical augmentation are common sights and the manufacturing facilies are more than capable of supplying the legion that calls the system its home.

== Primarch ==

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent primarch is a grim and forboding figure. Among the primarch he is of but average stature and his features though noble are rather plain. Among these young Demi gods however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour shimmers with frost as his will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to let no other than his father hear his true voice, he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of the servo skulls which flock around him like gulls over a beached whale. He does not mince worlds or attempt social niceties for he knows this is not his purpose. It is for the glory of the imperium that sorren draws breath and his fathers dream of a galaxy united as one

== The coming of the Primarch ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the lesser and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic Communions with his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meeting In the flesh Sorren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren

== Culture and Beliefs ==

The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.
Having inherited their primarch prejudices they finding verbal communication to be inefficient, vulgar and beneath them. They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non psykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading. With every worlds dominated and stripped of its pshykers their population and power grows and so does the primarchs ambitions. Though none can conclusively prove it it is whispered that his secret goal is that one day the whole imperium will be as Solencium. United in telepathic and technoglogical harmony Ruled over by the the greatest phycic mind the universe has ever known. That of the Emperor of man kind. And Sorren as his right hand. The primarch accepts that his dream will not be fulfilled any time soon but if anything he is patient. Patient and methodical. A mere 15000 years should do it. And what do the immortals have but time.

== Geneseed ==

The Gene seed of Sorren the silent is unique among the Primarchs as it will only take route in those with strong pshycic potential. Implantation in non psykers has a 97.823 mortality rate among aspirin recruits which imposed severe limitation on the legions original numbers. Consequentialy until the discovery of the solencuim system and the reunification with the primarch the legions recruits where almost solely drawn form the Black ships. When implanted in one with latent or already developed phycic ability the gene seed flourishes. As it enhances the flesh is also enhances the mind. Though some develop additional gifts all of the Silent Sons are strong Telepaths and mental manipulators. Both these advantages are heavily relied upon and play integral roles in the legions Doctrines and organization .

== '''History''' ==

'''
Early crusade'''

The early history of the VII the legion is an unusual one. Raised shortly after the unification war on Terra they where one of the first legions to be created solely from their lost Primarch gene seed. As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theater. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psychic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.
'''

== Combat Doctrine ==

Deu to their unusual nature the Silent sons are not deployed lightly. Specializing in subjugation and total domination of foes. the first phase is that of intelligence gathering. For months the system is scanned both physically and psykicly and infiltrated where possible. The next stage is one of electronic warfare. Codes are cracked, data vaults plundered, troop dispositions analyzed and tactics adjusted and weapons chosen.

As the legion moves into position the first sign of their presence is a precision barrage of emp warheads and phycic suppression of any technology. As whole cities go dark, orbital batteries shut down and scanners fail the legion makes its move. They come in drop ships or via teleport moving as one against the enemy positions. Swarms of servo skulls precede them further confirming enemy potions and then the killing begins.
The silent sons sing no songs. No battle cry passes their lips instead it is the roar of their bolters and the crushing power of their will that announce their presence. Their maneuvers or perfect their communication instantaneous their knowledge of enemy positions unmatched. Weak willed foes simply surrender there and then their wills broken by a wave to dread and terror that precedes the legions vanguard. Those who do not flee or surrender are butchered without mercy.

Once the fighting is over the true subjugation of the foe begins and The Flagellum Meam are deployed. Human populations are rounded up and enslaved in all but name. Xenos populations are simply put to the sword. The conquered have their will broken by the legions mental domination. Great censuses are held and all those deemed problematic are displaced and lobotomized before being given to the mechanicum to become servitors. Any found to have psychic potential given over to the black ships that accompany the legions expdition fleets. The cream of this harvest is sent back to Silencium for indoctrination in the primarch dominion the rest sent to Earth to Feed the Astronomicon.

When the imperial governing bodies take over they find feverishly eager populations glad to take on any tithe or hardship at the mere promise that their psykic subjugaters never return.

== Unique Formations''' ==

''' The Evocati'''

In a legion where strong psychs ability is the norm the Evocati stand out. If the average legionary is a High Delta on the psychic scale the members of the Evocati Covens are all Gamma level and above. These gifted psykers are the ones who perform the feats of psychic might the legion is renowned for. It is they who cast their minds out into the void to spy upon enemy positions. it is they who infiltrate the minds of the enemy command structure and advise the Grand Diminus where to strike. It is they who break the resolve of armies and cause star ship crews to scupper their own vessels. They are the Primarch chosen and masters of their craft. It is form thier ranks that the legions leaders are drawn. Each of the Grand Domini have served in the Evocati without exception. There are currently 9 Evocati covens active within the legion. 8 are personally assigned to the Grand Dominus's and their Cohorts. The 9th known as the inner circle serve the Primarch personally. Though the majority of the Evocati like the Domini they are assigned too do not take the field there are exceptions. Some among their number have gifts better suited for the front lines and they form the tip of the spear. Bedecked in Tactical Dreadnought Armour they march with the legionaries bringing lighting, fire and crushing telekinetic force to bear on the Imperiums foes.

''' The Flagellum Meam '''

Once a world is conquered the The Flagellum Meam are deployed. It is this branch of the legion that performs the subjugation and enslaving of the civilian populous. The Flagellum Meam consists of a score of Astartes led police battalions drawn form among the Solencium PDF. Their task is to pave the way for the arrival of Imperial departments responsible for indoctrinating newly conquered worlds into the Imperium of man. This task is performed in the following manner. Local government and law enforcement is suborned and brought under psykicly reprogrammed where required. Once this initial step is complete a census is taken of the planets civilian population and resources. Mind probes are employed to hunt out Dissidents. Once uncovered those deemed to be problematic are displaced, concentrated and handed over to the Mechanicum to be turned into servitors. Those Found to have no value are simply euthanized. Any civilians found to have psykic potential are given over to the black ships and the The Nigrum Nauta for further processing. Finally after several months the newly pacified planet is handed over the imperial authorities and The Flagellum Meam rejoins the legion.

''' The Nigrum Nauta '''

It should come as no surprise that a legion consisting solely of psykers Should have a close relationship with the black ships. From the discovery that the legions gene seed would only take root in those with psychic abilities the 8th legion has always worked closely with the Black ships. With the coming of the Primarch this relationship strengthened and resulted in The Nigrum Nauta or the black mariners.
The Nigrum Nauta exist to provide Astartes support to the crews Black ships in pursuit of their duties. Over the last few decades each of the black ships have heen assigned at least a half if not a full strength squadron of Astartes. to aid them in their task. Though these astartes hold no command role abroad the Ships their expertise is invaluable in capturing and proseesing of those whos gifts have developed out of control.
Consequentially those recruited into this service though psykers themselves are extensively trained in anti psyker ops. Limiter collars and psykic nullification fields are heavily used where the legionaries natural aptitude for mental manipulation fails. The Nigrum Nauta differs from the legions other unique formations as they spend a most of their time away form the legion and Sorrens direct supervision though all report to him when able. Though some might wonder why one who looks down on non psykers might willingly aid in what, on the surface at least, appears to be the full scale suppression of this own kind the primarch motivations are plain.

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent primarch is a grim and forboding figure. Among the primarch he is of but average stature and his features though noble are rather plain. Among these young Demi gods however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour shimmers with frost as his will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to speak to no other than his father he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of the servo skulls which flock around him like gulls over a beached whale. He does not mince worlds or attempt social niceties for he knows this is not his purpose. It is for the glory of the imperium that sorren draws breath and his fathers dream of a galaxy united as one

== The coming of the Primarch ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the lesser and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic Communions with his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meeting In the flesh Sorren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren

== Culture and Beliefs ==

The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.

They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non pshykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading.

== '''History''' ==

'''
Early crusade'''

The early history of the VII the legion is an unusual one. Raised shortly after the unification war on Terra they where one of the first legions to be created solely from their lost Primarch gene seed. As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theatre. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psykic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.

Combat Doctrine ==

Deu to their unusual nature the Silent sons are not deployed lightly. Specializing in subjugation and total domination of foes. the first phase is that of intelligence gathering. For months the system is scanned both physically and psykicly and infiltrated where possible. The next stage is one of electronic warfare. Codes are cracked, data vaults plundered, troop dispositions analyzed and tactics adjusted and weapons chosen.

As the legion moves into position the first sign of their presence is a precision barrage of emp warheads and phycic suppression of any technology. As whole cities go dark, orbital batteries shut down and scanners fail the legion makes its move. They come in drop ships or via teleporter moving as one against the enemy positions. Swarms of servo skulls precede them further confirming enemy potions and then the killing begins.
The silent sons sing no songs. No battle cry passes their lips instead it is the roar of their bolters and the crushing power of their will that announce them. Their maneuvers or perfect their communication instantaneous their knowledge of enemy positions unmatched. Weak willed foes simply surrender there and then their wills broken by a wave to dread and terror that preceeds the legions vanguard. Those who do not flee or surrender are butchered without mercy.
Once the fighting is over the true subjugation of the foe begins. Human populations are rounded up and enslaved in all but name. xenos populations are simply put to the sword. The conquered have their will broken by the legions mental domination. Great censuses are held and all those deemed problematic are displaced, lobotomized before being given to the mechanicum to become servitors. Any found to have psychic potential are taken and sent back to Silencium for indoctrination in the primarch dominion.

When the imperial governing bodies take over they find feverishly eager populations glad to take on any tithe or hardship at the mere promise that their psykic subjugaters never return.

== '''History''' ==

'''
Early crusade'''

The early history of the VII the legion is an unusual one. Raised shortly after the unification war on Terra they where one of the first legions to be created solely from their lost Primarch gene seed. As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theatre. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psykic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.
'''

== Unique Formations''' ==

==
Combat Doctrine ==

Deu to their unusual nature the Silent sons are not deployed lightly. Specializing in subjugation and total domination of foes. the first phase is that of intelligence gathering. For months the system is scanned both physically and psykicly and infiltrated where possible. The next stage is one of electronic warfare. Codes are cracked, data vaults plundered, troop dispositions analyzed and tactics adjusted and weapons chosen.

As the legion moves into position the first sign of their presence is a precision barrage of emp warheads and phycic suppression of any technology. As whole cities go dark, orbital batteries shut down and scanners fail the legion makes its move. They come in drop ships or via teleporter moving as one against the enemy positions. Swarms of servo skulls precede them further confirming enemy potions and then the killing begins.
The silent sons sing no songs. No battle cry passes their lips instead it is the roar of their bolters and the crushing power of their will that announce them. Their maneuvers or perfect their communication instantaneous their knowledge of enemy positions unmatched. Weak willed foes simply surrender there and then their wills broken by a wave to dread and terror that preceeds the legions vanguard. Those who do not flee or surrender are butchered without mercy.
Once the fighting is over the true subjugation of the foe begins. Human populations are rounded up and enslaved in all but name. xenos populations are simply put to the sword. The conquered have their will broken by the legions mental domination. Great censuses are held and all those deemed problematic are displaced, lobotomized before being given to the mechanicum to become servitors. Any found to have psychic potential are taken and sent back to Silencium for indoctrination in the primarch dominion.

When the imperial governing bodies take over they find feverishly eager populations glad to take on any tithe or hardship at the mere promise that their psykic subjugaters never return.

== Legion Homeworld ==

'''The Silencium Sector'''

On the edge of the ultima sector the Silencium system sports 3 habitable planets and an asteroid belt. The system heavily populated and each planet is more or less self sufficed dotted with hives and agri plants. Life is good on these world though decidedly different form every where else in the imperium as the whole population is telepathic. To walk its fields and boulevards is a solem and strange experience. No one speaks as mind to mind and noospheric communication has been the norm for centuries. There is no poverty almost no social unrest and the population is united beneath the primarchs psykic dominion working together for the glory of the new imperium. Tech priests and mechanical augmentation are common sights and the manufacturing facilies are more than capable of supplying the legion that calls the system its home.

== Primarch ==

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent primarch is a grim and forboding figure. Among the primarch he is of but average stature and his features though noble are rather plain. Among these young Demi gods however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour shimmers with frost as his will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to speak to no other than his father he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of the servo skulls which flock around him like gulls over a beached whale. He does not mince worlds or attempt social niceties for he knows this is not his purpose. It is for the glory of the imperium that sorren draws breath and his fathers dream of a galaxy united as one

== '''The coming of the Primarch''' ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the less and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic comunnions iwht his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meetign I nthe flesh Soren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren
Culture and Beliefs
The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.
Having inherited their primarch prejudices they finding verbal communication to be inefficient, vulgar and beneath them. They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non pshykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading. With every worlds dominated and stripped of its pshykers their population and power grows and so does the primarchs ambitions. Though none can conclusively groove it it is whispered that his secret goal is that one day the whole imperium will be as Solencium. United in telepathic and technoglogical harmony Ruled over by the the greatest phycic mind the universe has ever known. That of the Emperor of man kind. And Sorren as his right hand. The primarch accepts that his dream will not be fulfilled any time soon but if anything he is patient. Patient and methodical. A more 15000 years should do it. And what do the immortals have but time.

== Geneseed ==

The primarch geneseed will only take route in those with strong pshycic potential. As it enchances the flesh is also enhances the mind strengthening the subjects psychic gifts and always resulting in telepathy which the legion uses to great effect. Though his proved almost catastphic when the legion was founded with the integration of silencium and access to the black ships the legion grwos for mday to day.

As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theatre. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psykic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.

Life is good on these world though decidedly different form every where else in the imperium as the whole population is telepathic. To walk its fields and boulevards is a solem and strange experience. No one speaks as mind to mind and noospheric communication has been the norm for centuries. There is no poverty almost no social unrest and the population is united beneath the primarchs psykic dominion working together for the glory of the new imperium.

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent primarch is a grim and forboding figure. Among the primarch he is of but average stature and his features though noble are rather plain. Among these young Demi gods however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour shimmers with frost as his will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to speak to no other than his father he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of the servo skulls which flock around him like gulls over a beached whale. He does not mince worlds or attempt social niceties for he knows this is not his purpose. It is for the glory of the imperium that sorren draws breath and his fathers dream of a galaxy united as one

== '''History''' ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the less and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic comunnions iwht his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meetign I nthe flesh Soren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren
Culture and Beliefs
The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.
Having inherited their primarch prejudices they finding verbal communication to be inefficient, vulgar and beneath them. They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non pshykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading. With every worlds dominated and stripped of its pshykers their population and power grows and so does the primarchs ambitions. Though none can conclusively groove it it is whispered that his secret goal is that one day the whole imperium will be as Solencium. United in telepathic and technoglogical harmony Ruled over by the the greatest phycic mind the universe has ever known. That of the Emperor of man kind. And Sorren as his right hand. The primarch accepts that his dream will not be fulfilled any time soon but if anything he is patient. Patient and methodical. A more 15000 years should do it. And what do the immortals have but time.

Early crusade'''

The early history of the VII the legion is an unusual one. Raised shortly after the unification war on Terra they where one of the first legions to be created solely from their lost Primarch gene seed. As proof of concept the experiment was a success was a success and pioneered advances that benefited all later chapters. The legion itself however was a failure. The gene seed refused to take in all but a handful of subjects and only by freak chance was it discovered that it would only take hold in those with physic potential. This quirk of genetics severely limited the legions size and where other Astarte’s chapters numbered in the tens if not hundreds of thousands the silent sons numbered in mere thousands. Despite their small numbers the sons acquitted themselves well in the early years of the crusade. With a combination of tactical brilliance and psykic might they were instrumental in several campaigns though always in support of other legions.

'''Reunification with the primarch'''

The discovery of their Primarch brought great changes to the legion. In the months it took the feet to reach the Silencium system the legion was in constant telepathic communication with the primarch and began to forge the mind link that makes them the terror they are today. When Soren bowed before the emperor and joined his dominion to the imperium the sons gained access to billions of viable recruits and a new era dawned. Within a hand full of decades the legion quadruples in size, changed its doctrine and forged strong ties with the mechanicum. Whereas before they had been a small legion of psykic specialists now they where an unstoppable tide of fire and psykic domination.

== '''Legion Organization''' ==

The silent legions numbers some 160 thousand Astarte’s divided into 8 Cohorts. Each Cohortt is lead by a Grand Dominus who coordinates the armies mind and noospheric link and stands as a direct link to the primarch. The Grand dominus’s themselves don’t take the field instead relaying their commands through physic and noospheric links to lesser Domini in the field. The War hosts break down into Armys called mantiples each 2000 strong. these Mantiples further break down into 20 Centuries each 100 strong those further breaking down into squadrons of ten each. Each squad is telepathically and noosphericly linked and in constant communication with the rest of the army and through the various relays with the primach himself who personally oversees every theatre. Each marine is equipped with several servo-skulls which they use in conjunction with their own psykic gifts as a source of intelligence and espionage.

Deu to their unusual nature the Silent sons are not deployed lightly. Specializing in subjugation and total domination of foes. the first phase is that of intelligence gathering.

Great censuses are held and all those deemed problematic are displaced, lobotomized before being given to the mechanicum to become servitors. Any found to have psychic potential are taken and sent back to Silencium for indoctrination in the primarch dominion.

When the imperial governing bodies take over they find feverishly eager populations glad to take on any tithe or hardship at the mere promise that their psykic subjugaters never return.

'''The Silencium Sector'''

On the edge of the ultima sector the Silencium system sports 3 habitable planets and an asteroid belt. The system heavily populated and each planet is more or less self sufficed dotted with hives and agri plants. Life is good on these world though decidedly different form every where else in the imperium as the whole population is telepathic. To walk its fields and boulevards is a solem and strange experience. No one speaks as mind to mind and noospheric communication has been the norm for centuries. There is no poverty almost no social unrest and the population is united beneath the primarchs psykic dominion working together for the glory of the new imperium. Tech priests and mechanical augmentation are common sights and the manufacturing facilies are more than capable of supplying the legion that calls the system its home.

== Primarch ==

''Sorren the silent.''

The silent primarch is a grim and forboding figure. Among the primarch he is of but average stature and his features though noble are rather plain. Among these young Demi gods however it is his will that stands out. His Gunmetal grey Armour shimmers with frost as his will washes of him in oppressive waves. Having sworn to speak to no other than his father he communicates via telepathy or through the vox units of the servo skulls which flock around him like gulls over a beached whale. He does not mince worlds or attempt social niceties for he knows this is not his purpose. It is for the glory of the imperium that sorren draws breath and his fathers dream of a galaxy united as one

== '''History''' ==

Sorrent the silent was discovered in the solencium system in the eastern sector of the ultima segmentum on the thirds plant Dominum.

The solencium system had come through old night in relatively good stead as their words where relatively self sufficient when the primarch came the 3 worlds where trapped in a interstellar civil war. One of the side effect fo the warp storm that cut the system of from the early empire was the development of telepathy in a signification portion of the population. Though initially seen as a scientific curiosity the consequences where catastrophic. Within a few generations the telepaths of silencium had banded together into their own society. Using their gifts they ammased great welth and influence until almost all of the noble houses shared their gifts. Once it become public knowledge that the telapthic gene was dominant and that the nobles of the 3 worlds had been instituing eugenics programs to facilitate the spread there was civil war. On one side the The new phsycic upper class and on the other the blunt population. The telepath's held the advantage at the start of this war and where able to take control of 2 of the three worlds in short order. Their phsykicly linked troops simply out coordinated their blunt counterpart. To counter this the blunt population began a course of cybernetic implantation and using the equivalent of the noospehere where able to counter their foes. And then physic nullfier was invented.

Into this deadlock the Primarch came. Dominum prime had been under physic control for generations and found wondering alone after a blunt enemy raid soren was picked up by local defense forces handed over to the cdominion and indoctrinated into their society. The telepathic Dominions was bound in psychic unity and worked as one towards the total dominion of the Solenecium system. Found to have enormous phykic potential he was given over to their military casts. It became swiftly apparent during his rapid development that sorren was not wholey human. Within 8 years he was fully grown and had learned everything there was of war. Awed by his mind voice and rapid development he was given over to the Dominions scientists for study. It is here that the silent primarch found his love for all things mechanical. Within a few years of joining the scientific division he cracked the blunts noospeheric communication and reverse engineered thier psy blockers and cybernetic enhancements. Using this new found intelligence he raised a new cadre of elite troops form among the societies best combining telepathic might with cybernetic enhancement. Within 6 short months his troops had broken the deadlock and ended inter system war.

The Dominions hierarchy had always been based on telapthic strength with the loudest mental voices ruling over the less and within months of winning the war soren became undisputed ruler of the three worlds. Combining the best of psychic and cybernetic soren rebuilt his dominion into something new. Instituting rigid breeding programs and mandatory cybernetic anahcnement within a mere 5 generations there where no non telepath's and non augmented people left within the Solencium system. Having set his house in order Sorren turned his mind to there starts question his enormous psychic awareness beyond the solenciaum system. It was at this point that he touched a phycic intellect that Dwarfed his own. That of the Emperor of mankind. He swore his allegiance to his father there and then. For months Sorren was in telapthic comunnions iwht his father and the legion that had been born of his seed. When the emperor set foot on solencium he found 3 worlds already in complete compliance and his lost son ready to serve. At last meetign I nthe flesh Soren swore his oath before the crusading fleet and gave over his worlds to the imperium. The emperor returned them to his custodianship and presented him with his new legion. The 8th, the sons of Sorren
Culture and Beliefs
The 8th legion. Labled the freak legion or the emperors slavers by their detractors, are a product of their primarch beliefs. United in telepathic and cybernetic union they do not speak.
Having inherited their primarch prejudices they finding verbal communication to be inefficient, vulgar and beneath them. They more than make up for this with their mastery of telepathy and the noospehere even condescending at times to use the vox units in their servo skulls if its puts their allies at ease. This and their opinions on non psykers has driven a wedge between them and the army.

Their relationship with the mechanicum in contrast is excellent with both sides abhor inefficiency and are one in their love of all things technolgical and noospheric.

And then there is Sorrens outright disdain of all non pshykics. Though none could ever accuse the legion or its primarch of hating those he deems blunt they simply believe them to be inferior. Though the Soleincum system is compliant with imperial law there are nop blunt citizens. And to make matters worse its spreading. With every worlds dominated and stripped of its pshykers their population and power grows and so does the primarchs ambitions. Though none can conclusively groove it it is whispered that his secret goal is that one day the whole imperium will be as Solencium. United in telepathic and technoglogical harmony Ruled over by the the greatest phycic mind the universe has ever known. That of the Emperor of man kind. And Sorren as his right hand. The primarch accepts that his dream will not be fulfilled any time soon but if anything he is patient. Patient and methodical. A more 15000 years should do it. And what do the immortals have but time.

== Geneseed ==

The primarch geneseed will only take route in those with strong pshycic potential. As it enchances the flesh is also enhances the mind strengthening the subjects psychic gifts and always resulting in telepathy which the legion uses to great effect. Though his proved almost catastphic when the legion was founded with the integration of silencium and access to the black ships the legion grwos for mday to day.
