House Aramos is a Loyalist Imperial Knight house of the Imperium. They hail from the now Dead World of Rapture, which was once a verdant Knight World of the Reductus Sector until it was ravaged by the Tyranids of Hive Fleet Leviathan in 997.M41.
The stalwart Knights of House Aramos refused to abandon their lifeless world, and strive to hunt down any remaining Tyranid creatures that survived the Imperial purge.
House History[]
The paradisiacal Knight World of Rapture was once the shining jewel of the Reductus Sector -- but the terrible aftermath of an attack by a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan left the planet a near lifeless husk.
Rapture is now a Dead World, uninhabitable by Human life anywhere outside of the last surviving hab-dome. Though the fateful Tyranid assault on Rapture was ultimately defeated, the cost to the Imperium was dear. The stalwart survivors of House Aramos, however, refuse to abandon their ruined world, unwilling to sully the memory of their ancestors, who first settled Rapture some fifteen millennia ago.
From their stronghold of Auric Keep, the Knights of Aramos launch daily sorties beyond the walls of the hab-dome to hunt the persistent Tyranid broods that were able to endure the Imperium’s vengeful purge in the wake of Leviathan's defeat.
Notable Campaigns[]
- Defence of Rapture (997.M41) - The Knights of House Aramos valiantly defended their homeworld of Rapture when a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan invaded their ancestral home. Though they fought dearly to save their world, it was left a lifeless husk in the aftermath of the brutal xenos assault. Refusing to abandon their ancestral world, the Knights of House Aramos continued their xenocidal campaign against any Tyranid organisms that survived the initial Imperial purge.
