History
The White Horse company were originally formed around a group of White Scars legionaries, led by the Terran-born officer Tchondax Jagi. Isolated at the outset of the heresy on a forward scouting mission, Jagi’s company were contacted first by delegates from the Sons of Horus legion, who very nearly rallied them to the Warmaster’s cause. Perhaps luckily, a consul librarian amongst the Sons of Horus named Hexan suffered a series of apocalyptic visions and became convinced that both his legion and the loyalists were on destructive paths. Hexan deserted with a tiny handful of legionaries who had been his gang-mates on Cthonia, but not before persuading Jagi and a substantial core of his most trusted warriors to join him even as the remaining White Scars fell in with the traitors.
Taking a mythological Terran monster as his sigil, Jagi and the newly-named White Horse company dropped communications with both sides of the conflict and refused to commit to either cause. They drifted inwards, perhaps vaguely aiming for Jagi’s homeword of Terra, perhaps simply drawn to the fires of war. Soon other disillusioned and betrayed legionaries swelled their ranks, and they became opportunistic mercenaries, stubbornly clinging to their old rationalist ideals even in the face of the new horrors they witnessed.
White Horse Notables
Astartes
- Jagi, the White Horse
A former praetor of the VI legion, disillusioned by the Warmaster's betrayal and the collapse of the Crusade. Jagi is a great strategist and a deadly swordsman, and is armed with a terrifying black blade - maybe xenos in origin - which was looted from the ruins of a pirate vessel captured by his warriors.
- Hexan
Hexan is a former consul librarian of the XVI legion. He is a powerful telekine and is tormented by visions of the death and enslavement of humanity. He functions as the prophet and shaman of the White Horse Company. It may be that Hexan is (deliberately or not) influencing Jagi psychically somehow.
- Baraxes "the Ogre", right hand of the White Horse
Baraxes is Jagi's lieutenant, and a former centurion of the VII legion. His frightening appearance and manner belie his cunning mind.
- 501
The mysterious consul vigilator known as 501 rarely speaks. It is unknown how he became connected with the White Horse Company, but he has been instrumental in many of their more devious traps and ambushes.
Mortals
- Kayla Yu
Courageous and supremely self-confident, Yuna Blue is a war correspondent - a remembrancer who was attached to Jagi's VI legion scout fleet. She lives for the dramatic pict-captures that can be found only under fire, and has proclaimed herself the White Horse Company's official chronicler.
