House Borgius is a Loyalist Imperial Knight house of the Questor Imperialis in direct service to the Imperium, and hails from the Knight World of Dutonis.
This arid, volcanic world sits in the galactic northeast of the Segmentum Obscurus. Ever-tinged with the bitter taste of sulphur on the wind, it is a world of great material value to the Imperium, for it is ripe with mineral ore and rich veins of adamantium fork throughout the planet's mountainous crust.
Despite being bitter rivals, two knightly houses -- Borgius and House Navaros -- have long protected Dutonis from those who would seek to claim this priceless metal for themselves. In this task, they have fought against both alien and Traitor alike, for it would be unthinkable should such quantities of this invaluable ore fall into the wrong hands.
House History[]
Notable Campaigns[]
- Death of Traitors (c.M31) - The Arch-traitor Horus lies dead at the hands of the Emperor. But so high is the cost of victory that many seek solace in hounding the fleeing traitors across the stars rather than face the task of rebuilding the shattered Imperium. This campaign of vengeance is known as the Scouring. The surviving knightly houses with the strength to fight unanimously join in this crusade of retribution. Believing the honour of the many to be stained by the treachery of the few, the Imperial Knights hunt down the knightly houses that sided with Horus with extreme prejudice, seeking to redeem their tarnished reputation. Filled with righteous indignation, a combined strike force of Knights from Houses Cadmus, Terryn and Borgius annihilates the turncoats of House Devine as Imperial forces reclaim Molech.
- War for the Aberrus System (Unknown Date.M42) - Alongside the Knights of House Curtana, several Imperial Guard regiments, Adepta Sororitas and a company each of Knights of the Raven and Scythes of the Emperor Space Marines, House Borgius battles a tendril of Hive Fleet Kraken for the life of the planet Glacemaw.
