Omniscions

The Omniscions is a Loyalist Codex-compliant Space Marine chapter that is known for its fanaticism of the Cult Mechanicus.

Chapter History
The chapter came from a Hive World called Valonia, a planet known for following the Cult Mechanicus instead of the Imperial Cult.

Because of this, the Omniscions are real fanatics of the Machine God and revere the Emperor as the Omnissiah.

Chapter Homeworld
Valonia was a very technologically developed Hive World which the particularity to follow the Cult Mechanicus, the official religion of the Adeptus Mechanicus, rather the the Imperial Cult of the Adeptus Ministorum.

But in the late M36, the planet has been attacked by a Tyranid Hive Fleet, and is now a Dead World covered only with the ruins of the mighty hives that have existed long ago.

Fortress-Monastery
The chapter fortress-monastery is their main Battleship called the "Omni-Temple", which houses the Reclusiam, the Apothecarion and the Librarius, and also hundreds of shrines dedicated to the Machine God.

Chapter Beliefs
The Omniscions follows the Cult Mechanicus and its 8 Mysteries and 8 Warnings. They also share their parent chapter's hatred for weakness, by removing the frail and faillible flesh limbs and replacing them with purer bionics.

They also follow the Quest for Knowledge, seeking to retrieve all the knowledge of the galaxy for ensure that the domination of Mankind last forever.

Chapter Gene-Seed
The chapter gene-seed seems to be quite pure and no flaw has been recorded for now. The only exception being the chapter's hatred for weakness that may, like the Iron Hands, be the consequence of a genetic flaw.

Chapter Organisation
The chapter follows the tentes of the Codex Astrates very strictly, and have only minor changes in their structure. The most important is the introduction of the Omni-Priest rank, which is a hybrid of the Chaplain and Techmarine roles.

The chapter also uses its own titles rather than the Codex-compliant ones : Finally, Primaris Space Marines and Lieutenants have been incorporated within the chapter since the Ultima Founding and the end of the Indomitus Crusade.

Combat Doctrine
The Omniscions follow the combat doctrine lay down in the Codex Astartes, the only exception being their intense use of heavy weapons and vehicles.

Deathwatch Service
The Omniscions are very xenophobic species, especially towards the Tyranids who destroy their homeworld, and the Necrons, because their existence itself is a heresy against the Machine God.

Thus, they could make perfect recruits for the Deathwatch, but their fanaticism of the Cult Mechanicus and their deep hatred of weakness make it very difficult to them to work with other chapters, which they consider as weak and faillible as flesh. The only exceptions being the Iron Hands and their other succesors chapters.

Chapter Colours
The chapter power armour is mainly red, the colour of the Cult Mechanicus, with a black soft armour. The shoulder trims colour shows the Company of the Marine (the Omni-Master having red shoulder trims), and the squad number is written in Low Gothic on its left knee.

Chapter Badge
The chapter badge is a modified Cog Mechanicum with the symbol of the Cult Mechanicus (Φ) on the forehead.
