8th Company
Motto: In
pace paratus - In peace prepared
Eighth
Company is a Reserve Company, numbering 100 men.
The Company is part of the Chapters Home Guard, and
only sees action “abroad” if the other Chapters
are heavily damaged or otherwise indisposed.
The Eigth Company does have a role as a Quick Responce
Back Up Company however, that is sent into an area of
Conflict when other Companies are extreemely hard pressed
or damaged.
In addition to this, the Company is the one that usually
patrols Space in and around the Chapters Home System;
Icar V. And finally it serves as a Search And Rescue
(S.A.R.) Company.
The Eigth Company holds some of the Chapters youngest
marines with the least experience, as they are usually
reinforced by 9th and 10th Company.
for the veterans of the Chapter however, 8th is often seen as a bit of an Oddball as far as the Companies go.
8th is known to be a tad darker than the rest of the Chapter and they are also known to carry out missions and manouvers that are considered a bit crazy and certainly un-Codex-like.
The Company's dark, straight forward, hard hitting and brash mannerism is often reflected in its leaders and one can also see traces of it throughout the Company's history.
