Grimtoof's Bane
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Grimtoof's Bane are relics of the Imperial Guard's 43rd Company of the Cadian 99th Regiment.[1]
When the company was wiped out while protecting an Adeptus Mechanicus research station on Hervara from a subterranean Ork assault, the grateful Tech-Priests sought to repay their saviors. The Magi recovered twelve chainswords, all spattered in gouts of dark Ork blood, and reforged them, creating elaborate scenes of valor against the alien menace in shining filigree across the blades and replacing the snapped and shattered teeth with a mysterious metal wrought through their techno-arcane arts. Now, these heirlooms are carried by the 99th’s most esteemed heroes.[1]
