I was inspired by the Ultramarines entry in the new marines codex. I came up with the below fluffy bits for my Scorps.
Red Scorpions 2nd Company “Sword of Ordon”
Red Scorpions 2nd Company “Sword of Ordon”

Commander Elias Merck; “The Lion of Vraks”, “The
Prince”
Venerable Dreadnought
2.
Venerated Brother Draco
Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought
3.
Ancient Kell, “Keeper of the Watch”
Tactical Squad 1 Squad Vigil, “Hammers
of Culln”
The
first tactical squad is often a proving ground for battle brothers to join the
ranks of the First Company as Sternguard Veterans. Squad Vigil has borne this
honor for many decades as well as the name “Hammers of Culln” due to the Chapter
Master’s watch over their progress.

Tempestus is the recipient of high accolades from not only their Chapter

incursion, the Brazen Claws First Captain exclaimed that second squad fought as
though they had been “born of wrath”.

Tactical Squad 3 Squad Westeros, “The
Purehearts”
The
third squad takes great pride in their martial ability as well as their
adherence to the Codex Astartes. Sergeant Geld is renowned for his amazing
swordsmanship and was himself known as “Pureheart”. It was only a matter of
time before his squad garnered that name as well.

Bike Squadron 1 Squad Gyear, “The
Unseen”

the wild. His favorite gambit is to approach an enemy’s flank at maximum speed
so as to be unnoticed until it is too late.
44.
Sergeant Vench
45.
Brother Pye- Melta Gun
46.
Brother Reince- Grav Gun

bikes themselves as weapons.

49.
Brother Gorik- Melta Gun
Centurion Devastator Squadron Squad
Buthidae, “The Poison Arrows”

pleased with his Centurions. Sergeant Klaas is thought by many to be on the
short list to become First Captain one day soon.
50.
Devastator Sergeant Klaas
51.
Brother Tsar
52.
Brother Grimm
Devastator Squadron Squad Veritas, “The
Lonely Hunters”
Squad
Veritas is composed of a very sullen and ill-humored group of marines. Sergeant
Jerran is fond of keeping his men on mission for weeks at a time and often
ranging far out from the main battle group. Here they wait, like predators. His
men view tanks in the same way a hunter views big game.

Centurion Assault Squadron Squad Laedere.
“Fists of Rage”
Squad
Laedere is made up of battle brothers who relish the art of the siege and
bloody close combat more than any other member of the Second Company. Their
Centurion armor reeks of gore and burned plastcrete. The Fists of Rage are
rightfully feared by all the enemies of the Imperium.
63.
Centurion Sergeant Takhar
64.
Brother Young
65.
Brother Gorch
Assault Squadron Squad Sanguis, “The
