Bio:

These Thunder Warriors were the First Legion To Existed In Terra During the Unification Wars, They are Lethal, Faster and Stronger than Than Any Warlords of Terra Could Muster Except those that have Dark Age of Technology Present, Despite the Perfection of the Genecraft of the Emperor of Mankind, thanks to the Time and Resources that Alexander Provided, There were some deficiencies with the Genecraft.

Some of them Exploded into Gore in Mid Combat and Go into a Beserker Rage attacking their Allies.

Making some of the people question the Ethic of keeping this "Ticking time bombs" in the Imperium, The Emperor Wanted to Send them to Mt Ararat to Kill them and Swept them under the Rug to please the Naysayers, Alexander Hyde in the Midst Seas of The Nay Sayers, Wanted them to live, He Vouched for their Existence; "They were the First Legion that Gave their Lives to The Unification Wars, They were the First to Bring Order In this Once Hellscape with The Emperor to Unify this Land, you deny their efforts, their Blood and Tears that Stain on Terra was the Foundation of the Imperium, If they weren't here, Your Ancestors would be spilling blood for what you have now! They Deserve More than what You can Bring to the Table, You Hated them for what they are worth, Why don't You Go to the Frontlines and Come back and Retract whatever Nit-pick whatever you say?" - Alexander Hyde on the Judgement of Thunder Warriors.

After a Brief Conversation With the Emperor, Alexander Went out of the Emperor Quarters with Depressed look on his face as Tarrik Escorted him...

Making Some of his Detractors gleefully Accepted his "Pets" Demise, Ignoring the Fact that it was the Emperor Own Warriors...

During The Siege of the Last Stronghold that Defy the Imperium Compliance... Alexander Hyde Joined the Thunder Warriors on top of Mt Ararat, Other believe was their Last Orders...

It was Said That he Stood With them and Waited for the Emperor to Give the Execution Orders...

But They were given another Chance, As the Emperor took them to the Stars, Making the Detractors believe that He Planned them to Die away from Terra...

The Command of the Thunder Warriors was Given to Alexander As The Emperor Believed in them to be in good use. Alexander Spent Time to Fix the Core issues of the Thunder Warriors, Such as the Limited Lifespan and the Defects, He Gave them a Unused Progenoid Geneseed that was Not Connected with Any Primarchs and Placed His Blood on it...

They Were The Example of the Astartes Legions as Most of them have Good Relations during the Search of the Primarchs, Helping them out and Assisting the Frontlines.

They are taller, Durable and Faster than their Astartes Counterparts...

Now it was believed that It will take at least 5 Custodes to Bring a single one down in Close Combat. Provided It they were not using the Bolter in their Spears.

A Legion Homeworld was Created in Alexander League. A Peaceful world of Orion VI a Reminder for all of them of the things they have done, the Emperor Dream ...

Their Recruitment is Simple, They Gather the people from the Slums and Those that had Hardships in life in the Imperium, Vetted the process of those like "Erebus" Mentality to be Kept out. And Made them Cracklings, the Initiates for the Thunder Warriors, They learn how to Maintain their weapons and Armor as there are no Serfs to Maintain their own weapons, And thanks to the Prevalent to A.I in the League what Took Years to Create a Space Marines is only in Two Months as the Machines managed to do the Implantations faster than the Techpriests could insert the Organs and Those Years they would Had being Moulded as a Space marines, the Cracklings had Stimulation Combat, Learning of the Arts, Blacksmiths, Crafters and Socializing with the People that they swore to protect. It the Cracklings Failed in their Geneseed Modifications they would be placed as a Support group of Being a Lightning Blazers, a specialized Mech user for their services. There is no shame to be the first to fail and they are all brothers...

Before They Can be routed and Flee if the Situation was worse, But with the Implementation of the Geneseed they Have no Sense of Fear, But they do have a Sense of Self-Preservation. Alexander Doesn't put the Hyno-indoctrination Made for the Space Marines into the Thunder Warriors. As he believes in their human side of them.

Only Tarik Along few others, Knew the Truth of their Destined Death and Kept Silent about it as Alexander Vouch for their Existence... As there is no need for Bad Blood between the two...

During the Final Days of Grand Crusade, They were asked a Simple Question From Alexander... What happens when they are Done with it?

Some wished to Return to their Homes and See what have Changed in their Worlds, Others Followed Alexander to Maintain Peace and Stability in his Empire, And When Horus Struck Their Benefactor Planet, Their Homeworld...Despite the Luna Wolves that were Terran Stock realize they make a Mistake, They Flew in a Rage not what they seen before... They lived up to the Legends as Thunder Warriors as Electricity Emitted around them and Crushed The Traitor Forces only to be Chased at the Borders...

It was Said they Also Assisted the Defense of the Eternity Gate in Terra... As Alexander Escorts to defend it with Sanguinius The Primarch of the Ninth Legion Along with the Defenders, From the Horde of Demons and Traitors flooding into the Golden Palace, they held for 7 days and 7 Nights... Until the Final Climatic Battle in space between Horus and Emperor of Mankind...

Arrik Taris Was Wounded and was Place into statis Until he was In his Homeworld that was undergoing Nuclear Decontamination to recuperate.

They Later Returned to the League Before the Warp Storms Enveloped.

And they were Not Heard from again until the Call from the Astral Claws Was Heard...
