Chapter Master Causen

The figure crouched down as the Bloodletters approached, their horns glistening as his lightning claws. Suddenly he burst from the rubble – charging forward at an amazing speed before lopping off the first daemons head in surprise. His alternate claw ran through a second as the others turned, blades rising into the air. 10-1. But their advantage was cut short, as nine other Marines charged from the cover loosing bolts from their pistols.

Causen is the current Chapter Master of the Shadow Hunters. Bearing the Assassins Claws, a pair of ancient Lightning Claws gifted from the Ultramarines themselves, he is fearsome to face the wrath of in combat and a great leader – never faltering in the face of combat.
He faced Kharn in combat, losing one of his own arms before performing a risky strike, wounding the Betrayer. Several times Causen has lead small teams against forces ten times their size, and performed dangerous manoeuvres to annihilate them utterly.
He was one of 10 survivors in the siege of Fortswyth, when an Eldar reclamation force attacked an Imperial outpost, forcing the small defence force to hold off until extraction. Causen lead a portion of the second company in defence of the chapter’s gene-seed on their homeworld Durin IV, against the Tyranids and was one of three Marines to survive when a Chaos Space Marine force was summoned inside. Saren, the previous Chapter Master was killed in defence of the planet and Causen was elevated to the position.
Since then he has lead considerably larger sized forces against Warmaster Jacob and Abbadon the Despoiler alongside the Ultramarines, Salamanders, Grey Knights and Dark Angels.
He has been instrumental in slowing Abbadon’s advance and his tactically adept mind has caused victory in several major space conflicts.

Causen activated his lightning claws and leapt out of the back of the Thunderhawk and was suddenly rocketing through the air. He watched the battlefield spread out below him before checking his HUD. The rest of the squad were in formation behind him. When he hit 1000m the jump pack kicked in, steadily slowing his descent, but he still hit the ground hard – shocking the Chaos Marines. Within seconds he unattached the jump pack and leapt through the air, his claw entering the nearest traitor Marine’s skull. The combat would not last long, but the war was a long way from over.
