The Eight Sons are a World Eaters Warband, that is composed of eight brothers born from the same mother.[1]

History

Each is a Champion in their own right and after the Great Rift's creation, the Warband and their slaves joined the Blood Crusade, that began tearing its way through the Galaxy. This led the Eight Sons to fight against the Tyranids and Orks in the Octarian War, until the Blood Wave that brought them there moved to another location. However once the Warp Storm had disappeared, the brothers found themselves left behind with their slaves. Not willing to miss the Crusade's further bloodshed, the Eight Sons decided to commit so much butchery amongst the Tyranids and Orks, that Khorne would notice the deaths they were reaping. They used the Xenos bodies to create the Blood God's symbol and killed so many that reality began to flicker as a bloody Warp Rift began to form. Sensing that Khorne was now watching them, the Eight Sons then killed their own slaves in order to hasten the Rift's opening. When it was complete, the brothers stepped through it and found themselves on another world, where a great battle was taking place in. They immediately joined it while praising Khorne and now know their duty is done on a world, when another Warp Rift opens for them to charge through into the next conflict.[1]
