History
The warlord known as the Nameless Knight, leader of the blackshield band later designated the White Horse, appears to have been a Terran-born legionary of the XIXth Legion, among the last generation of youths from the Xeric tribes of Terra to be inducted before the legion began recruiting from off-world. He was probably a neophyte when he and his majority Terran-born company were assigned by their Primarch to the galactic fringe as part of an effort to purge the legion of undesirable Xeric customs.
By the time the Heresy blew everything apart, the Nameless Knight was one of the last surviving children of Terra in his company, and a Captain of the Legion. Some unknown catalyst caused him to abandon his duty and unite many of his remaining comrades. At first it was unclear what the aims of the White Horse were, but it became apparent that they were heading slowly and inexorably home, towards Terra. The knight's ultimate plan when he reached his destination is unknown, but his band grew with other renegade and orphan astartes. Their only unifying factor seemed to be a disdain for authority and a powerful loyalty to one another, but they were on occasion willing to play a role in a larger strategy if well compensated.
The Nameless Knight and his small fleet apparently vanished some time during the Age of Darkness, never reaching their destination. Unconfirmed reports of their presence at the Siege of Terra are unlikely ever to be verified.
