Warp Serpents

The Tempest Serpents are a Chaos Warband from the Thousand Sons Traitor Legion. Like the Legion, they are dedicated to the Chaos God Tzeentch. They are led by the Chaos Sorcerer Thoth Ibis, formerly a member of the Legion's 1st Brotherhood and a part of the Pavoni Cult. Baut's thirst for knowledge and the understanding where all things come from and where they will end made him take some of his own forces, including a substantial number of fellow Sorcerers, and forming his warband. The Tempest Serpents now travel the galaxy, searching for ancient relics, both xenos and humans, and battling the many factions and races they come across.

Notable Members

 * Archmage Thoth the Wanderer: Prospero born, Thoth Ibis was an inspiring scholar who lived in Tizca and was known for his curiosity in the origins of mankind and other races. He was also a social individual, discussing the various lore and arcane texts with fellow scholars, including the newly made leader of Prospero Magnus the Red. Thoth eventually joined the Thousand Sons Legion, serving in the 1st Brotherhood under Ahriman and joining the Pavoni Cult due to their usage of their own bodies coaligning with Thoth's own interest in mankind's history. During Great Crusade, Thoth became friends with the Terran born Psyker Beon Marthad, a member of the Raptora Cult, becoming something of a mentor to the younger battle-brother, as well as the non-psyker Khait Una, a member of the Sekhmet. When the Space Wolves began their invasion of Prospero, Thoth fought on the frontlines, even saving Beon's life. After the Legion fell into the service of Tzeentch, Thoth took part in the Siege of Terra before retreating to the Eye of Terror. Unlike the majority of the legion, Thoth did not hold ill will towards Ahriman for turning the non-psykers of the legion into living armor, knowing that drastic measures were required, though he still felt some sorrow when gazing at the empty armour of Khait. With his newly enhanced psychic powers, Thoth decided to leave the Planet of the Sorcerers to venture the galaxy and learn about the origins of the galaxy, races and even the Chaos Gods, and then discovering where it will end and perhaps his own destiny. He took many Rubic Marines and like-minded Chaos Sorcerers, including Beon, with him and left the Eye of Terror.

The Shrouded
A Gloriana-Class Battleship that Thoth had managed to acquire between the Horus Heresy and Great Scouring, Thoth made it his personal vessel for himself and his warband. It has been enhanced in being able to cloak, remaining undetected by virtually anything. This allows the warband to move on freely to search the galaxy and practice their arcane and research in peace.
