History
In M37, thirty Space Marine Chapters were sentenced to the Abyssal Crusade. The Doom Legion was among them.[2] However, the Chapter traditionally guarded the Elusian Maze asteroid fields, and was thus allowed to retain four companies at its bases, while six were sent to take part in the crusade. The Doom Legion contingent was led by Viktarion, Captain of the Doom Legion's First Company.[1]
Like most Space Marines taking part in the Abyssal Crusade, the Doom Legion contingent was corrupted. Of its six companies, five began worshipping Nurgle, renaming themselves to "Vectors of Pox". They plegded loyalty to the Death Guard and joined the Long War. The traitors subsequently returned from the Eye of Terror to reunite with their loyalist brothers. Viktarion was sent as an emissary to convince the remaining Doom Legion to join the forces of Chaos. The negotiations failed, and Viktarion was killed by the loyalists.[1]
