Hier is ein wenig Hintergrund zum Jetbike und zu den schwarzen Schwertern, beides vom guten Brimstone von Warseer.
The Master of the Ravenwing’s Jetbike
At the time of the Horus Hersey, many of the Space Marines Chapters fielded jetbikes. These sleek craft allowed a single rider to soar across the battlefield at great speed, held aloft by gravitic drive the like of which are long lost the Techpriests of the 41st Millennium.
Since those days the art of building and maintaining these craft has been all but forgotten by Humanity and it is regarded with superstition and distrust as the province of the xenos races such as the Eldar and the Tau. The last of the Imperium’s venerable ‘Mark 14s’ are though to have been lost many centuries ago, and with them a glorious tradition of jet-cycle riding units stretching back to the days of the Great Crusade. The Master of the Ravenwing however is privileged to tide into battle upon an example of nigh extinct technology, a prized vehicle built to the highest standards, the like of which may never be seen again in the service of the Imperium. In addition to its nose-mounted storm bolters, the vehicle is equipped with an underslung plasma cannon, itself an example of ill-understood technology, its fusion generator capable of powering many hundreds of shots.
Perhaps the Masters of the 2nd Companies of other Unforgiven Chapters hold such wonders in their arsenals too, the last known jet bikes to be ridden into battle by warriors of the Imperium.
The Heavenfall Blades
The swords carried by the highest-ranking members of the Inner Circle, collectively know as the Heavenfall Blades, are cut from a single block of obsidian. Dark Angel lore holds that the block formed the core of a meteorite that struck the Rock in orbit around the feral worlds of Al Baradad. The mightiest of these blades is the Sword of Secrets, carried by the holder of the rank of Supreme Grand Master. Those blades carried by the Master of the Deathwing and Master of the Ravenwing also utilize small amounts of the obsidian in their working. Each of these blades is carried by a master, and is as potent a symbol of his rank as it is a deadly blade with which the enemies of the chapter are silenced. It is said that a small portion of the meteoric substance was dispatched to each of the Dark Angles Successor Chapters, that key members of the their own Inner Circles might bear weapons of the same heritage as those born by the Masters of the Dark Angels.
