Grail Templar

The Grail Templar are a Loyalist First Founding Legion, known for their codes of chivalry and devotion to the Emperor. Styling themselves on the Knight Houses of Venisi, the noble born Legionaries live monastic lives; spending every hour outside of battle honing their skills or studying the words of the Emperor. Although the Emperor sought to remove religion from the soul of Humanity, He could not help Himself from using its iconography; going as far as to refer to the Astartes as His Angels of Death. This could not be more true in the case of the Grail Templar who followed their Primarch, the Lady Amelie La’Croix, in her devotion to the Emperor.

Raised on a world ruled by holy orders of knights, Amelie brought their ideals and structure to her Legion upon her discovery; albeit without the veneration of a god although many believed that she never truly let go of her belief that her Father was a deity. These critics would be proven right when the Tyrant Emperor ascended to Godhood, as Amelie was the first to fling herself at the feet of the Emperor; becoming His champion and Warmaster of the Loyalist Legions.
