Iron Talons Chapter Colour Scheme as displayed by a Firstborn Space Marine.
The Iron Talons is a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter raised during an unknown Founding as a successor of the White Scars.
The Iron Talons are members of the Astartes Praeses -- one of the 20 Chapters of Astartes mentioned in the ancient tome known as the Mythos Angelica Mortis -- that were created to defend the regions surrounding the Eye of Terror in the Segmentum Obscurus from the forces of Chaos.
Chapter Appearance[]
Chapter Colours[]
The Iron Talons wear predominately black power armour. The Aquila or Imperialis on the chest plate, as well as the arms, are silver.
The yellow squad specialty symbol -- battleline, close support, fire support, Veteran or command -- is indicated on the right shoulder guard.
A black High Gothic numeral centred on the squad specialty symbol indicates squad number.
This fearsome Chapter is noted for appearing barbarous-looking as its battle-brothers have a morbid tendency to drape their enemies' flayed skin on their battle plate.
Chapter Badge[]
The Iron Talons' Chapter badge is a stylised metallic silver raptor's talon, outstretched to grasp its prey, centred upon a black roundlet on a field of yellow.
