Brokenback
The Brokenback is a Space Hulk, used as a base by the Soul Drinkers Chapter.[1a]
Following the declaration that the Soul Drinkers were judged Excommunicate Traitoris and Librarian Sarpedon taking control of the chapter, the prophet Yser received a vision that led them to the hulk. After cleansing the hulk of a Genestealer infestation, Sarpedon decided to make it the chapter's new base of operations.[1a]
It holds the entire chapter, and has been their fortress-monastery and base of operations since Sarpedon split with the Imperium. It has been noted several times as being one of the largest Hulks yet encountered by the Imperium, and is composed of a smattering of Imperial vessels ranging from Battleships to pleasure yachts to Inquisitorial Black Ships, as well as a number of exotic xenos designs.[1a]
