Salamanders pilots ritually scar themselves with the dactyl sigil. Pilots are the only Salamanders allowed to scar their faces before the rest of their body.[7b]

Notable Battles

  • M35-Commorragh Raid - The Battle Barge Vulkans Wrath spearheads the Salamanders attempt to rescue the damaged Forgehammer[5]
  • 905.M41-Badab War - The Pyre of Glory and Obsidia were both involved in the loyalist effort during the Badab War.[4]
  • 975.M41-Defense of Nocturne - Captain Dac'tyr commanded the orbital battle over Nocturne. In order to defeat the larger Dragon Warriors Dac'tyr split his forces into two pincers. One made up of the Flamewrought and the Serpentine and the other made up of the Vulkan's Wrath and the Hammerforge.[1b]This tactic was successful and the Salamanders were victorious in the battle.
