Gotha

Imperium Portal

Gotha was the last King of Oxitania, a wasteland domain on Terra that was pacified by the VIIIth Legion's 9th Company during the Unification Wars.^[1]

Though Gotha's forces put up a fierce resistance, they were ultimalty defeated, though at the cost of the near destruction of the 9th Company. Afterwards the Emperor, in his beneficence, offered Gotha the rank of Rogue Trader in remission of his execution - an offer Gotha readily accepted. Ironically the survivors of the VIIIth's 9th Company, now called the Crimson Sons, were oathbonded to his service.^[1]
