The Legio Tritonis is an Imperial Titan Legion, that became the first[2] Blackshield Legio during the Horus Heresy and refused to fight for either the Imperium or Warmaster Horus.


Overview

The Legio was formed from Legio Venator on Arachnus during the Cataclysm of Iron and was named after the three celestial bodies of Arachnus (the planet itself and its two moons). Desiring independence, after purging their homeworld of any who sided with the Imperium, the Dark Tide embarked on a ruthless campaign across the Belt of Iron against loyalist and traitor alike.[3][4a]

At the end of the conflict Arachnus was invaded by Venator loyalists, supported by the Legio Atarus.[4a] The Legio Tritonis surrendered to the Imperium and pleaded for mercy.[3] According to records, all of the rebels of Arachnus were annihilated, but reports exist of Titans in Tritonis livery active on planets across the Belt of Iron.[4a]
