Space Marines

Culture
Space Marines are born in a vat system and as such aren't accustomed to normal parental views though they are capable of breeding with any compatible species. Space Marines are genetically bred to revere the Empress as a living god, and unquestioningly serve any command she gives them even if it means their death. They are also genetically inclined to automatically see anyone under the protection of the Empress as "family" in some sense.


 * The mindset of a space marine can basically be summed up with their mantra: "Obedience brings victory, and victory is life."
