Solar Falcons

The Conquistadors of Terra are a White Scars successor chapter from the second founding that was drawn from the surviving Terran born astartes of the V legion, to this day they still recruit from Europa mostly but keep there Fortress-Monastery elsewhere on a small planet in the Segmentum Solar. Mostly used to explore & subjugate unexplored parts of space, bringing any human empires to compliance and wiping out all xenos found. They are known for having an overly savage nature of warfare and for there strict adherence to the Imperial Creed compared to most Astartes chapters. Both were born from being deployed with the Black Templars during an early chapter wide assault on a chaos held world.

History
After the Horus Heresy & the creation of the Codex Astartes, many of the surviving terran born White Scars decided to band together in order to keep there own personal history alive and separate from the Chigoris born members, with this the chapter was born. Early in there existence they fought side by side with the Black Templars which forver changed the chapters beliefs and demeanor.

Enemies
Void Paladins- As they are followers of the Imperial Truth and the Conquistadors of the Imperial Creed there is a bitter hatred held for the Paladins. It came to a head on the planet Odun where a short but bitter war culminated in a duel between Sezrion & the Conquistador's chapter Master, Lord-Castilian Gorje, that ended with Gorje's death and that of the rest of his First company. This event made the Void Paladins & Sezrion himself as a source of the chapters vengeance.
