Some time after the Great Heresy, the chapter of the “Flesh Ripper” space marines successors of the Blood Angels (sons of “Sanguinius”) found themselves in battle against a fleet of space Ork corsairs, proving to be worthy sons of the angel. Most of the Orks but a few greenskins managed to escape its Claws.
The leader of the Ripper Captain “Nassir Amit” ordered the pursuit of the Orks to a distant unknown planet in the “Corythos” sector. As the Ork hunt continued and a dense fog entered the planet’s atmosphere. Ripper ships and Orks spot the gigantic raptors that shot them down to fall into a dense jungle with swamps that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Ignoring the dangers of the planet, the Ripper and the Orks were attacked by surprise by the native beasts of the planet that attracted by the impact of the ships did not allow any defense to claim them as food; While the Orks were being torn to pieces by the fauna and flora, the Ripper maintained their positions with enormous casualties, requesting reinforcements from Captain “Nassir” until only Sergeant “Manakel” was left alive, who, determined to continue fighting until exhaustion, was saved by the spears of wild humans who carried the banner of the Imperial Eagle. (Lost Expedition of the Great Crusade)
Relying on the help of wild humans, Sergeant “Manakel” was escorted to the tribe refuge where he met the tribal chief who told him about the dangers of his world, highlighting the story of “Raktoryx” the most powerful beast that makes you tremble. the ground with his footsteps, skeptical the Sergeant did not take long to experience the fear of the tribe when he heard the shouts of alarm from the savages (The Raktoryx was close) luckily Captain “Nassir” located the sergeant and got up to date on the situation.
Under a new deployment the Rippers combed the jungle finding the feared giant “Raktoryx”. Determined to conquer this savage planet the Ripper saw the reptilian giant as a worthy trophy to test his strength. The battle of the Ripper against the “Raktoryx” was so challenging that the plasma shots failed to pierce or burn its skin causing the reptile to become enraged enough to spit fire from its jaw to destroy the ships like flies, seeing the little effectiveness After the attack the veteran chaplain of the chapter “Zophal” interceded for his brothers in a last daring plan to attract the attention of the beast “Raktoryx” to the top of a sleeping volcano along with a few volunteers who held their positions until they were crushed by the reptile managing to move the beast to the top where “Zophal” was the last decoy that collapsed from the wounds suffered from his journey said goodbye to his brothers with a detonation that woke up the volcano that engulfed and killed the “Raktoryx” in an explosion of magma that destroyed the entire surrounding air.
With the honorable sacrifice of brother “Zophal” the “Flesh Rippers” conquered the inhospitable planet they named “Cretace” for the numerous beasts similar to the extinct dinosaurs and to demonstrate their new dominance to the beasts the Rippers built in the cleared area. a fortress that would be the new home of the chapter along with the wild humans who would continue the Angel’s legacy.
