Iron Talons Chapter Colour Scheme
The Iron Talons are one of the Loyalist Space Marine Chapters founded as part 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. The Iron Talons were founded using White Scars gene-stock during an unknown Founding.
Chapter Appearance
Chapter Colours
The Iron Talons predominately wear black colour Power Armour. The Aquila or Imperialis on the chest plate, as well as the arms, are silver in colour. The yellow coloured squad specialty symbol -- (Tactical, Assault, Devastator, or Veteran) -- is indicated on the right shoulder guard. A black coloured Roman numeral centred on the squad specialty symbol indicates squad number. This fearsome Chapter is noted for appearing barbarous-looking as they 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 talons, outstretched to grasp its prey, centered upon a black coloured roundlet, on a field of yellow.
