Deathsworn Pack

A Deathsworn Pack was a unique, elite specialist infantry unit utilised exclusively by the Space Wolves Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy eras during the 30th and 31st Millennia. Those warriors born from the genetic deficiencies of the Space Wolves gene-seed, some of these warriors found their minds filled with an all-consuming impulse to kill and kill again. These afflicted dark souls were attracted to a particular sub-cult of the Fenrisian mythos centred around the wolf-spirit Morkai, a pseudo-deity of death and the dead. Those who followed the Cult of Morkai were gathered together into a specialist infantry unit known as the Deathsworn. The dreams of the Death Wolf consumed the minds of the Deathsworn so that only in killing did they themselves feel anything but the chill of death closing about them. In that moment they careed nothing for their own lives or safety, so long as their enemies were strewn about them broken and lifeless.
