History
During the Great Crusade the 17th Company prided itself on its skills at infiltration and execution missions. The company made extensive use of Darkwing Pattern Storm Eagle Gunships in conjunction with Legion Reconnaissance Squads to deliver devastating assaults and airstrikes from deep behind the enemy’s lines. 17th Company’s mission on Isstvan V was to gather information on enemy movements and pre sight targets for orbital strikes.
Captain Calliditas managed to survive the destruction of XIX Legion at the Drop Site Massacre, saving a dozen Raven Guard legionaries with a hand full from his company in the process of escaping the bloodshed. The days following the massacre Captain Calliditas divided the Legion Astartes into small units to consolidate supplies, salvage munitions and search for surviving loyalist Astartes. The Mor Deythan squad attached to the 17th Company avoided the initial massacre due partly to the Mor Deythan superior skills to avoid detection and their preferred method of waging war. With their Darkwing Storm Eagle Gunship they performed multiple decapitation strikes and hit and run missions on traitor positions, while only receiving minor causalities in the days following the massacre.
By chance they discovered the remainder of 17th Company fighting to stay alive while returning from an ambush mission on a traitor legion patrol.
Notable Characters
Captain Calliditas Sev had commanded the 17th Company for only three years before the betrayal of Horus on the black sands of Isstvan V. Lycaeus born like most of the Astartes under his command, Calliditas had only been a young child when Corax had liberated the prison moon now known as Deliverance. He was part of the third wave of initiates from Deliverance to be indoctrinated into the Raven Guard Legion. Showing impressive skills at infiltration and sabotage in the Legion Reconnaissance, it wasn’t long before Calliditas was selected to join the Legion Vigilator. He was assigned to 17th Company where he served his missions and duties with high distinction until the fateful assault of Gate Forty – Two left the 17th Company without a commander. After the battle Calliditas was appointed to Captain by Lord Corax himself and transformed the company in that short time into an isolated reconnaissance strike force.
