The
Red Howlers a fallen Space Wolves successor chapter and aspiring Slaughtercult
of Khorne, under the tribal-minded and exacting Great Wolf, Svane Vulfbad. The
Legion is entirely dedicated to the worship of Khorne, but members retain their
stylized iconography and rank markings from their Space Wolf roots. Still seeing
themselves in some way as a successor chapter, as well as a marked improvement
over the staunch limits of the Imperium, their ancient roots show in the
designations used for various units in the army. Each squad is referred to by a
number and their squad type, e.g. Sixth Hammers, First Troll Hammers, and Third
Bryn Hammers.

In
addition, Svane has secured the allegiance of a Herald of Khorne, known as the
Dervish, itself in service to a Bloodthirster of the Sixth Host, known to the Red Howlers only as Jormungandr (the Midgard Serpent).
This creature’s forces lend aid from beyond the Warp and sends loyal cultists
to serve as fodder. This aid takes the form of “die Gängeren,” numerous Daemons
of Khorne which enter the fray in a support role for the Red Howlers. This force
includes Bloodcrushers, Skull Cannons, scores of Fleshhounds (possessed wolves
from the Red Howlers’ own kennels), and hundreds of Bloodletters and Furies, as
well as dozens of Daemon-fueled mechanized vehicles. Further, the infernal lord
has granted power to some of Svane’s chosen warriors, resulting in unique
Possessed and Spawn.
