Origins 起源

The origins of the Red Scorpions Chapter are unknown. No records remain of the chapter's founding or from which Space Marine Legion their geneseed was first taken. This secrecy has led to some of the Imperium's hierarchy questioning the loyalty of a chapter that keeps its history secret and holds itself answerable to the Emperor alone. Despite this, the chapter assists wherever it can, carrying out thousands of relief missions. It is known, however, that the chapter has existed for at least 5,000 years.

红蝎战团的起源尚不清楚。没有关于该战团成立的记录，也没有关于他们的基因最初来自哪个星际战士军团的记录。这种保密性导致帝国的一些高层质疑一个对历史保密并仅对帝皇负责的战团的忠诚度。尽管如此，战团仍尽其所能提供协助，执行了数千次救援任务。然而，众所周知，这一战团已经存在了至少5000年。

Notable Engagements 著名交战

• 857.M38: Siege of Helios — The Chapter is called to assist in the prolonged siege of the traitor stronghold on Helios. The Chapter's Master of the Forge created the Land Raider Helios by mounting extra Whirlwind launchers onto existing Land Raiders. He took this step because the Red Scorpions mistrusted the Imperial Guard units they were sent to work with, fearing the Chapter may become tainted by forces already exposed to the traitors' corruption.

• 赫利俄斯围城 — 战团受命协助长期围攻赫利俄斯的叛徒据点。该战团的铸造大师通过在现有的兰德掠袭者上安装额外的旋风发射器，创造了兰德掠袭者赫利俄斯。他采取这一步骤是因为红蝎不信任他们被派去合作的帝国卫队，担心战团可能会被已经暴露在叛徒腐化中的部队所污染。

• 633-635.M39: Second Aegisine Crusade — The Red Scorpions battle Heretek forces.

• 第二次艾吉辛远征 — 红蝎与异端部队作战。

• Late M39: Ordon Crusade — The entire chapter deployed in the wilderness space of the Ordon Rift in Segmentum Tempestus for 300 years, during which time it was feared they had been destroyed. It is unknown what happened during these three centuries.

• 奥尔登远征 — 整个战团在暴风星域的奥尔登裂隙的荒芜空间部署了300年，在此期间，人们担心它们已经被摧毁。不知道这三个世纪发生了什么。

• 321.M40: The Red Scorpions defend the Hive World of M'kond from the orks of Waaagh! Gulgrag.

• 红蝎保护姆'康德的巢都世界免受古尔格拉格的Waaagh！的攻击。

• M41: Galen V suppression (Galen V Expeditionary Force - involved Land Raiders in Codex approved Cobalt/Ammonium desert camouflage for the cobalt chromate deserts of Galen V)

• 盖伦五号压制（盖伦五号远征军 - 参加战斗的兰德掠袭者，采用圣典批准的钴/铵沙漠伪装，用于盖伦五号的铬酸钴沙漠）

• 826.M41: Siege of Vraks — A strike force composed of elements of the 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 8th companies arrive during the Siege of Vraks on the Strike Cruiser Arx Fidelis. Led by Commander Ainea, the strike force aids in the final breaching of the curtain wall surrounding the Fortress of Vraks. Veteran Sergeant Carab Culln leads the Vanguard squad that carried the teleport homer used by Commander Ainea and his squad of Terminators to arrive at, and subsequently hold, the breach in the curtain wall where the besieging army would pour through.

• 弗拉克斯围城 — 在弗拉克斯围城期间，由第1、第3、第6和第8连队组成的打击部队乘坐打击巡洋舰忠诚堡垒号抵达弗拉克斯。在指挥官艾尼亚的带领下，打击部队协助最终突破了弗拉克斯堡垒周围的幕墙。老兵军士卡拉布·库伦带领先锋小队，该小队携带了指挥官艾尼亚和他的终结者小队使用的传送信标，抵达并随后守住了幕墙上的缺口，攻城军队从那里涌入。

• 830.M41: The Red Scorpions return to Vraks, this time with a strike force personally led by Lord High Commander Verant Ortys in response to Inquisitor Lord Hector Rex's request for aid. The Battle Barge Sword of Ordon arrives in orbit, carrying 400 of the chapter's battle-brothers, including Veteran Sergeant Carab Culln. The Red Scorpions proceed to participate in the retaking of the Fortress of Vraks, particularly the battle of Saint Leonis' Gate.

• 红蝎返回弗拉克斯，这次是由至高领主指挥官维兰特·奥尔提斯亲自领导的打击部队，以回应审判官领主赫克托·雷克斯的援助请求。奥尔登之剑号战斗驳船抵达轨道，搭载了400名该战团的战斗兄弟，其中包括老兵军士卡拉布·库伦。红蝎继续参与夺回弗拉克斯要塞，特别是圣莱奥尼斯之门之战。

• 850.M41: Marines from the chapter's 1st and 6th Companies, led by Commander Carab Culln assist Ordo Xenos Inquisitor Solomon Lok during an investigation and subsequent battle against Tyranids on Beta Anphelion IV. The Chapter comes under surveillance by the Ordo Hereticus for their actions, along with Inquisitor Lord Varius of the Ordo Xenos.

• 第1和第6连队的战士在指挥官卡拉布·库伦的带领下，在贝塔·安菲利翁四号上对泰伦的调查和随后的战斗中协助圣锤修会审判官所罗门·洛克。该战团因其行为受到讨逆修会的监视，还有攘外修会的审判官领主瓦留斯。

• 906.M41: The Badab War — The chapter is brought in, along with the Minotaurs, to protect shipping and space lanes and to reinforce the Fire Hawks and Marines Errant during the Badab War. Due to the Red Scorpions' unyielding devotion to Codex scripture and their unwillingness to fraternize with less traditional Chapters, their operations in the War are mainly confined to space-lane duties. They are involved in several bloody ship-to-ship boarding actions against the renegade Executioners chapter , while the Minotaurs carried out similar boarding actions against the renegade Lamenters, which caused the Lamenters to surrender.

• 巴达布战争 — 该战团与米诺陶一起被引入，以保护航运和太空航线，并在巴达布战争期间增援火鹰和游侠战士。由于红蝎对圣典的坚定忠诚，以及他们不愿意与不太传统的战团建立友谊，他们在战争中的行动主要局限于太空通道任务。他们参与了几次针对叛徒处刑者战团的血腥船对船跳帮行动，而米诺陶对叛徒恸哭者也进行了类似的跳帮行动，导致恸哭者投降。

• 906.M41: The Angstrom Incident 安斯特罗姆事件

• 907.M41: The Red Scorpions return to the galactic east to undertake their normal duties, due to Ork incursions in the Ultima Segmentum (most likely by Urgok the Unstoppable).

• 红蝎返回银河系东部执行他们的正常任务，因为欧克入侵了极限星域（最有可能的是不可阻挡的乌尔戈克）。

• 999.M41: Third War for Armageddon — A single company arrives at the end of the first year of conflict during the Season of Fire and awaits the Season of Shadows to commence hostilities in Warzone Armageddon.

• 第三次阿玛吉多顿战争 — 一个连队在火季的第一年冲突结束时抵达，等待影季在阿玛吉多顿战区开始敌对行动。

• Undated — Battle with Eldar forces (location unknown). It is known that at least one Red Scorpions Rhino with spaced armour fought there.

• 与灵族部队作战（位置未知）。据了解，至少有一辆覆盖间隔装甲的红蝎犀牛在那里战斗。

• Undated — The Scoring of Entessian — Red Scorpions forces (including Dreadnoughts and Conqueror Class Robots) supported the Firebrands Titan Legion fighting Rebel Robots during the attack on Myrdinn City's industrial sector.

• 恩德西安刻痕 — 在袭击默丁城工业区期间。红蝎部队（包括无畏和征服者级机兵）支援了炎纹泰坦军团与叛军机兵的战斗。

More recently, they have been involved in operations against Hive Fleet Kraken and the growing Ork empire of Urgok the Unstoppable as well as the Octarius War.

最近，他们参与了针对虫巢舰队克拉肯和不断壮大的不可阻挡的乌尔戈克的欧克帝国以及奥克塔琉斯战争的行动。

Gene-Seed 基因种子

The Chapter is noted for the purity of geneseed tithes which is heavily tied to its fanatical belief in purity, in deed and thought as well as physically. According to an assessment of progenoid samples by Inquisitor Lord Varius's acolytes, the Chapter retains over 94% purity, with the only exception being an overactive Betcher's Gland. It was for this reason that Varius chose the Red Scorpions as the gene source for his proposed new founding to counter the Tyranid hive fleets. However, the Chapter has repeatedly refused to allow more samples to be examined by the Inquisition or the Adeptus Mechanicus Biologis.

本战团以基因种子什一税的纯洁性而闻名，这与它在行为、思想和身体上对纯洁的狂热信仰密切相关。根据审判官领主瓦留斯的侍僧对基因收存腺样本的评估，该战团保留了94%以上的纯净度，唯一的例外是过度活跃的贝彻腺体。正是出于这个原因，瓦留斯选择红蝎作为他提出的新发现的基因来源，以对抗泰伦的虫巢舰队。然而，该战团一再拒绝让审判庭或机械修会生物贤者检查更多样本。

Despite its extreme purity, the Red Scorpions' gene-seed is highly genericised; it has none of the defining features that might be used to tie it to any specific Space Marine Legion.

红蝎的基因种子极其纯净，且它具有高度的通用性；它没有任何可以用来将其与任何特定的星际战士联系起来的可定义特征。

Homeworld 家园世界

The Fortress-Monastery of the Red Scorpions is a space station named Vigil that orbits Zaebus Minoris and/or its moon. The location of Vigil is a well-kept secret only Chapter members and high-ranking members of the Administratum know.

红蝎要塞修道院是一个名为警戒的空间站，围绕泽巴斯·米诺若斯和/或其卫星运行。警戒的位置是一个严格保密的秘密，只有战团成员和内务部的高级成员知道。

Recruits are drawn from Zaebus Minoris, a small, arid world inhabited by primitive tribes of humans. The tribes' traditions tie into the recruitment process of the Chapter. Missionary Galactica reports that all male infants are presented to their tribes' temple at the first full moon of its life. A few are taken by the "gods" - selected, after stringent genetic testing, by Chapter Apothecaries as potential future Marines. Because these recruits will have had no experience with their parent culture, the Chapter is all these recruits will know. The monastery itself is a large battle-station which orbits the moon of Zaebus Minoris, and from this base the Chapter sends strike forces out across the galaxy to destroy those who would threaten the Imperium. Indeed, they could almost be considered a Crusading Chapter because they treat Vigil as a simple base of operations rather than the centre of a great realm. The Chapter's armoury is well-stocked, and they are known to field a wide variety of vehicles, particularly Drop Pods and Land Raiders. Their forge is renowned for its ability to maintain (and manufacture in limited amounts) a variety of patterns of Astartes Power Armour, especially the treasured Mark IV pattern, commonly issued to the Chapter's veterans as a sign of rank. The Red Scorpions are also famous for the quality of their arms, and extraordinary weapons such as power swords, axes, or fists are also issued to the veterans, fulfilling both a practical and symbolic purpose. This association of military rank with quality wargear is exemplified in a collection of relic blades known as the "Tears of the Scorpion", each with its own legend and wielded by one of the Chapter's Commanders. Indeed, the only shortage of any kind of wargear that the Red Scorpions have is a dwindling supply of Terminator Armor due to heavy use, notably during the Siege of Vraks, Beta Anphelion IV, and the Badab War.

新兵来自泽巴斯·米诺若斯，一个由原始人类部落居住的干旱小世界。部落的传统与该战团的招募过程息息相关。卡拉狄加传教士报告说，所有男婴都会在他们部落的神殿迎来生命中的第一个满月时被送到神殿。其中一些被“神”选中，经过严格的基因检测，被战团药剂师选为未来战士的潜在成员。因为这些新兵对他们的父母文化没有任何经验，所以这些新兵只会知道战团。修道院本身就是一个围绕泽巴斯·米诺若斯卫星运行的大型战斗空间站，从这个基地，战团向整个银河系派遣打击部队，摧毁那些威胁帝国的人。事实上，他们几乎可以被视为一个远征战争，因为他们将警戒视为一种简单的行动基础，而不是一个伟大领域的中心。该战团的军械库储备充足，众所周知，他们部署了各种各样的载具，特别是空降仓和兰德掠袭者。他们的铸造厂以能够维护（和有限数量地制造）各种阿斯塔特动力盔甲型号而闻名，尤其是珍贵的Mark IV型，通常作为军衔标志颁发给该战团的老兵。红蝎也以其武器的质量而闻名，并且还向老兵发放了力量剑、斧或拳等非凡的武器，实现了实用和象征性的目的。这种军衔与优质战争装备的联系在一系列被称为“蝎泪”的圣物刃中得到了体现，每把剑刃都有自己的传说，由战团的一名指挥官使用。事实上，红蝎所拥有的任何一种战争装备的唯一短缺是由于大量使用而导致的终结者装甲供应减少，特别是在弗拉克斯围城、贝塔·安菲利翁四号和巴达布战争期间。

Organization 组织

The Red Scorpions consider the Codex Astartes as religious scripture, and their chapter organization closely follows codex standards. The chain of command within the Chapter is highly authoritarian, and all orders given by a superior are to be obeyed without question. Captains are called Commanders, and the Chapter Master is known as the Lord High Commander. The Master of the Apothecarion traditionally holds the position of second-in-command due to the Chapter's emphasis on purity, and they also maintain a larger Apothecarion. The Chapter's Apothecaries are often attached to Tactical squads to ensure the retrieval of the Chapter's geneseed. Being a Codex Chapter, the Red Scorpions favor a combined-arms approach to the destruction of the Imperium's enemies whenever possible. Each Battle-Brother is expected to be a master of all forms of warfare described in the Codex and available for re-assignment to different squad types and companies as the need arises.

红蝎认为阿斯塔特圣典是宗教经文，他们的战团组织严格遵循圣堂标准。战团内的指挥链是高度权威的，上级下达的所有命令都必须毫无疑问地服从。连长被称为指挥官，战团长被称为至高领主指挥官。由于该战团强调纯洁，药剂大师传统上担任二把手，他们还保留了更大量的药剂师。该战团的药剂师通常隶属于战术小队，以确保取回该战团的基因种子。作为一个圣典战团，红蝎赞成在可能的情况下采用联合武器的方法来摧毁帝国的敌人。每个战斗兄弟都有望成为圣典中描述的所有形式战争的大师，并在需要时重新分配给不同的小队类型和连队。

Although the Chapter relies heavily on the Codex Astartes for strategic and tactical deployments, it can unexpectedly innovate when circumstances dictate. A particularly notable example is the Siege of Helios, where the Chapter's Techmarines developed the Land Raider Helios due to their distrust of the Imperial Guard assets fighting alongside them. The Land Raider Helios has now been adopted by many Chapters and was recently approved by the Mechanicus. Despite being fully capable of undertaking covert operations, the Red Scorpions abhor them, and prefer to face their enemies proudly bearing their colors. This, combined with a reduced Scout Company due to strict recruitment standards, ensures that the Chapter's Neophytes are often deployed in the main battle line as an auxiliary force.

尽管该战团在战略和战术部署上严重依赖阿斯塔特圣典，但在情况需要时，它可以出乎意料地进行创新。一个特别值得注意的例子是赫利俄斯围城，由于不信任与他们并肩作战的帝国卫队，该战团的技术军士开发了兰德掠袭者赫利俄斯。兰德掠袭者赫利俄斯现已被许多战团采用，最近还得到了机械教的批准。尽管红蝎完全有能力进行秘密行动，但他们憎恶它，更愿意自豪地面对他们的敌人。这一点，再加上由于严格的招募标准而减少的侦察连队，确保了该战团的新进者经常作为辅助部队部署在主战线上。

Beliefs 信仰

The Red Scorpions do not seem to venerate any Primarch above the others, giving their devotion solely to the Emperor. Some say that their strict adherence to the Codex Astartes shows that they are a Successor Chapter of the Ultramarines, but there is little other evidence to support this besides the purity of their gene-seed. Indeed, the preservation of their gene-seed is the Chapter's core belief. The Red Scorpion's devotion to the purity of their gene-seed has made them isolationists, scorning those who they believe are less pure or deviate from the Codex, and they will go to any lengths to retrieve the Chapter's due from their fallen Brothers. They will not serve alongside abhumans, and view all the other military arms of the Imperium as untrustworthy. They are also staunch traditionalists and protectors of authority, and are quick to aid Imperial governors or cardinals faced with rebellion. The Red Scorpions are also extremely xenophobic, detesting the alien and the mutant in all their forms.

红蝎似乎并不比其他人更崇拜任何一位原体，他们只忠于帝皇。有人说，他们严格遵守阿斯塔特圣典表明他们是极限战士的子战团，但除了基因种子的纯度外，几乎没有其他证据支持这一点。事实上，保护他们的基因种子是本战团的核心信念。红蝎对其基因种子纯度的执着使他们成为孤立主义者，蔑视那些他们认为不那么纯净或偏离圣典的人，他们将不遗余力地从他们死去的兄弟那里取回本战团的权利。他们不会与亚人并肩作战，并认为帝国的所有其他军事力量都是不可靠的。他们也是坚定的传统主义者和权威的保护者，并迅速帮助面临叛乱的帝国统治者或红衣主教。红蝎也非常仇外，憎恨各种形态的外星人和变种人。

Chapter Elements 战团成员

Fleet 舰队

The Red Scorpions are assumed to have a large fleet at their disposal, given their history and salvage rights following the Badab War, but so far only three ships have been mentioned in official GW material and Forge World publications to date - the Battle Barges Auel's Bane and Sword of Ordon, and the Strike Cruiser Arx Fidelis.

考虑到巴达布战争后的历史和打捞权，红蝎被认为拥有庞大的舰队可供支配，但到目前为止，官方GW材料和FW出版物中只提到了三艘舰船 — 战斗驳船奥尔之灾号和奥尔登之剑号，以及打击巡洋舰忠诚堡垒号。

Notable Members 著名成员

• Carab Culln — Culln is the current Lord High Commander of the Red Scorpions. He was inducted from the primitive world of Zaebus Minoris and has risen through the ranks of the Red Scorpions to take his current position after the death of Lord High Commander Ortys. According to quotes attributed to him he considers abhumans such as Beastmen and Ogryns to be subhuman and is highly reluctant to allow his troops to serve anywhere near them. He considers the use of camouflage to be cowardice, although there is nothing to suggest the Chapter as a whole shares this belief; on the contrary, the chapter is noted to strictly follow Codex camouflage designs, to such an extent that they refuse to fight alongside chapters using "unofficial" designs. At some point, Carab Culln was grievously wounded and interred within the shell of a Dreadnought, and now the Capatins Casan Sabius and Sirae Karagon have become the de facto leaders of the Chapter.

• 卡拉布·库伦是红蝎的现任最高指挥官。他从泽巴斯·米诺若斯的原始世界中被引入，并在至高领主指挥官奥尔提斯牺牲后通过红蝎的等级上升到现在的位置。根据他所引用的话，他认为野兽人和欧格林等亚人是非人，非常不愿意让他的军队在他们附近的任何地方服役。他认为使用伪装是懦弱的，尽管没有任何迹象表明整个战团都认同这一信念；相反，该战团严格遵循圣典的伪装设计，以至于他们拒绝与使用“非官方”设计的战团并肩作战。在某个时刻，卡拉布·库伦受了重伤，被埋葬在一艘无畏机甲里，现在连长卡桑·萨比乌斯和西拉·卡拉贡已经成为该战团事实上的领导人。

• Verant Ortys — Supreme Leader of the Red Scorpions circa 830.M41. Accepts Lord Inquisitor Hector Rex's request for aid, and personally leads a strike force of 400 battle-brothers in the retaking of the Fortress of Vraks, capturing Saint Leonis' Gate from waves of heretics, mutants, and finally daemons. Ortys was killed during the Badab War in The Betrayal at Grief on 3.390.906.M41.

• 维兰特·奥尔提斯 — 红蝎的最高领袖，约830.M41。接受审判官领主赫克托·雷克斯的援助请求，并亲自率领一支由400名战斗兄弟组成的打击部队夺回了弗拉克斯要塞，从异端、变种人和最后的恶魔手中夺取了圣莱奥尼斯之门。奥尔提斯于3.390.906.M41在巴达布战争的悲伤之叛中被杀。

• Ainea — Commander of the Red Scorpions 3rd Company circa 826.M41. Led a task force that answered Marshal Kagori's request for aid, and captured the breach in the curtain wall of the Fortress of Vraks that finally allowed the 88th Siege Army to enter the Citadel proper.

• 艾尼亚 — 红蝎第三连队指挥官，约于826.M41。领导了一支特遣部队，回应了卡戈里元帅的援助请求，并占领了弗拉克斯堡垒幕墙的缺口，最终使第88攻城军得以进入城堡。

• Sevrin Loth — Magister of the Red Scorpions and is considered one of the most powerful Librarians, not only in his Chapter, but throughout all of the Astartes. Inducted from a feudal planet within the Ordon Rift, he soon started to display powerful psychic powers during martial training; able to break bones with thought alone. Loth has a reputation for being a relentless fighter as skilled in personal combat as he is mentally.

• 塞弗林·罗斯 — 红蝎的导师，被认为是最强大的智库之一，不但在他的战团中，而且在整个阿斯塔特中都是如此。他来自奥尔登裂隙的一个封建行星，在军事训练中很快就表现出强大的灵能力量；仅凭思考就能折断骨头。罗斯以无情的战士而闻名，他在个人战斗方面和灵能上一样熟练。

• Kregor Thann — Master Apothecary. Also a member of the Deathwatch

• 克雷戈尔·坦恩 — 药剂大师。也是死亡守望的成员

• Casan Sabius: Captain. One of the two de facto Chapter Masters of the Red Scorpions since the wounding of Carab Culln.

• 卡桑·萨比乌斯：连长。自卡拉布·库伦受伤以来，红蝎事实上的两位战团长之一。

• Sirae Karagon: Captain. One of the two de facto Chapter Masters of the Red Scorpions since the wounding of Carab Culln.

• 西拉·卡拉贡：连长。自卡拉布·库伦受伤以来，红蝎事实上的两位战团长之一。

• 纳尔 — 牧师无畏

• Galtus — Dreadnought.

• 加尔图斯 — 无畏

• Justinian — Dreadnought.
