Tännhauser's Bones are relics of the Black Templars Chapter.[1]

History

They come from Marshal Tännhauser, who led the Rutger's Reach Crusade against the Black Legion. He was martyred at Legion's hands at the decisive battle between their forces, which ended with the Crusade being victorious. Tännhauser's bones were then encased in small reliquaries and were distributed among the Crusade's survivors, during a victory sermon afterwards. Each bone is a potent reminder of duty and the expectations placed upon each of the Black Templars' Battle Brothers.[1]
