OOC: okay then, here is my army with the dose of background included as before. I have added Wargear.

IC: The Benefactors were originally a loyalist chapter known as The Iron Swords, but when a huge portion of the chapter including its Chapter Master Goliath Morac vanished within the Immaterium, the Chapter's destruction began. The Iron Swords were only small splinters of around 230 battle brothers remaining. Just as suddenly as the Chapter Fleet had vanished however, it re-appeared and suddenly over the Chapter's home world of Gasta. The marines on board proceeded to descend upon the planet and set it ablaze.

The Chapter had recalled all of its strength to its home world in order to reform itself better, and every one of the 'surviving' marines was caught in the trap. Most of them were killed but some reportedly turned to the chaos gods. One of the few video feeds that was received showed Morac running forwards screaming madly, "FOR MY GODS! FOR MY BEAUTIFUL GODS!"

The Benefactors are strange in that they do not serve Chaos Undivided in the normal sense. The serve each god on a cycle which includes chaos undivided. Each month is dedicated to an individual chaos god, ensuring that each 'god' receives two months of dedicated worship, while the two central months are dedicated to whoever the various marines desire for themselves. This makes the chapter something of an oddity amongst the warbands of chaos and means that the loss of Khorne has lead to a great hatred for Vulture and his Undivided as the fallen chapter refuses to recognise Vulture as a new god of chaos.

The Chapter currently numbers around 800 marines strong, so that is about 580 regular marines, 120 raptors, 100 havocs 50 or so bikers, 2 vindicators, 6 predators and is lead by Goliath Morac.

Morac wears standard power armour, and is in fact rather simply and normally laid out. He wields two thunder hammers at once, but does at times set these aside and use a power sword and a combi-plasma.

OOC: I think that is all I need. And Du'un's army post; a truly mighty and terrible legion!
