[edit] Overview

The Doom Eagles may be a Second Founding chapter of the Raven Guard. However, unlike the Raven Guard, their use of dreadnoughts is more extensive, fitting with their belief that they are fighting while dead. While they do follow the codex closely, they have the Somber trait divergence, using See, But Don't Be Seen, and the drawback Death Before Dishonor. They emphasize the use of stealth tactics and speed.

[edit] Chapter Traits

At a basic level, all Doom Eagles accept that they are already dead. This is the root of their courage, their unshakeable determination to face the greatest odds. As such the men of this Chapter are almost impossible to deter, but they are dour, grim and depressive, albeit staunchly loyal to the Imperium.


[edit] Chapter in Novels

The Doom Eagles also featured in Dan Abnett's short story "Pestilence".
