The Legio Tempestus are a loyalist Titan Legion from Mars (or Orestes[2]) who have served mankind since the time of the Great Crusade.

History

The Legio Tempestus was founded on Mars before the Great Crusade and gained fame in many battles alongside the forces of the Roboute Guilliman and the 12th Expeditionary Fleet. They gained the nickname of The Stormlords after the Legion's master Indias Cavalerio earned it for his skill in planetary assault during the wars of the Epsiloid Binary Cluster. After several bloody decades on the Crusade, the Legion needed refitting and replenishment and settled on the worlds of Estaban III and Orestes Colonia. Meanwhile Cavalerio returned to Mars with Titans that needed the most refitting. Over time, a rift began to form with the Legion elements on Mars and those in the Estaban and Orestes Systems under the control of Princeps Maximus Karania. During the civil war within the Mechanicum during the Horus Heresy the Legio rallied in support of the Magma City, governed by the loyalist Adept Koriel Zeth. Cavalerio remained true to the Imperium, but Maximus Karania revealed his treachery and became fascinated with the occult during his rule of traitorous Tempestus forces back on Estaban.[3]

Eventually, the loyal elements of the Legio Tempestus found its doom during the battles on Mars when overwhelming forces of the Legio Mortis attacked the Magma City. The Senior Princeps Cavalerio led his Legio against the Imperator-class Titan Aquila Ignis, destroying all its retinue of lesser titans only to be annihilated immediately after by the sheer firepower of the immense titan.[1]

It appears this Legio was re-made at some point after the Horus Heresy, as the small Legio Tempestus was the first line of defense against Chaos Titans on the Forge World Orestes during the Sabbat Worlds Crusade in 779.M41.[2]
