Legacy of Kalladius
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Legacy of Kalladius is a Chainsword and relic of the Astra Militarum.[1]
History
It was created in the aftermath of the Imperium's victory on Kalladius Secundus, when the bayonet tips from dozens of Guardsmen were taken from the corpse of a Chaos Space Marine Champion. Though hundreds of soldiers died trying to slay the giant in a bayonet attack, only these Guardsmen were successful in striking the Champion's flesh before he killed them. The bayonet tips were then forged into the Kalladius' teeth, and every swing from the relic chainsword strikes like a host of vengeful Guardsmen.[1]
