The Warp Knights were created in 001.M32, the third founding, from an undisclosed chapter though many believe it is from the Imperial Fists that they originate. The homeworld, now destroyed, was removed from imperial records though all that is known is that it was a tomb world dangerously close to the Eye of Terror. This closeness to the warp may have led to the chapter's views on the wider universe.

  • The Warp Knights were created in 001.M32, the third founding, from an undisclosed chapter though many believe it is from the Imperial Fists that they originate. The homeworld, now destroyed, was removed from imperial records though all that is known is that it was a tomb world dangerously close to the Eye of Terror. This closeness to the warp may have led to the chapter's views on the wider universe. Recruits to the Warp Knights were put through incredibly rigorous training regimes, tested well beyond their limits and capabilities, breaking them and seeing who pushed on even when physically and mentally drained and exhausted. And while this made recruitment slow, it ensured that the Chapter got the warriors they needed. Indoctrination was deemed less vital than fighting capability and as such the Warp Knights were amongst the, if not the most, non-zealous Chapters. The Chapter was loosely based on knights of Terran Legend, heavily armoured troops striking swiftly. But while Khan's legion rode on bikes the Warp knights were already developing their fast drop pod assaults. Around this time they were engaged in numerous battles with chaos forces from the eye of terror, most notably against the followers of Slaanesh. It was in 098.M32 that the Warp Knights fought against multiple noise marine warbands, it was as though the chapter was taking on the entire Emperor's Children legion and was their crowning glory. It was during a full-scale battle that Veteran Seargent Drannoth led his vanguard squad against a daemon prince believed to be Fulgrim himself. His squad perished around him but he himself was able to land numerous blows before being practically cut in half by the daemon prince. Though the identity of the daemon prince is still unknown and is not likely to be Fulgrim, Drannoth was interred in a Dreadnought sarcophagus and the Chapter hails him as hero among heros, an Astartes who fought a Primarch. Only the timely intervention of both the [data destroyed] chapters enabled the Warp Knights to survive.
