Description Still going with these, at least for a bit longer.   Once again using blank space marine templates to make this.

The Hunters of Man are a small chapter descended from the White Scars chapter.  Like their forbears, they have a high degree of savagery in their combat.  They do seem to have a better handle on it, weather this is through a mutation in the gene-seed or a result of their extremely disciplined battle rituals is unknown. They do seem to have a slight mutation that has altered their combat lust.  Instead of a near maddening desire for combat they take just as much joy in the preparation for combat as well the tracking of and ensnaring of enemies before they go in for the kill. This is know as the Hunter's Call.  Because of this strong desire for protracted hunts before a kill, the Hunters of Man have garnered a slight reputation as bounty hunters.  While they leap at the chance to track down those wanted by the Adeptus Arbites this only something they engage in on rare occasion. What the chapter is most known for is their near continuous hunter for traitor legions because they feel that the greatest hunts come from tracking down and eliminating other Astartes.  Because of this, while they do have a fortress-monetary on their home-world of Servus Prime, they are more often found of their ships patrolling either the Maelstrom or the Eye of Terror. 

They will often recruit from the various Imperium worlds they pass by during their hunts, which can take decades.  New recruits participate in the hunts against traitor and heretic space marines and those who survive at least 7 engagements are allowed to become Astartes.  The battle brothers of the chapter have a series of rituals they partake in both during a hunt and right before they deploy for battle.  It is generally believed that these intricate rituals are what help keep their battle lust in check.  They are know for embellishing their armor with various symbols after each battle.  Their armor eventually becomes a mural of various deeds, the armors of the most season warriors becoming completely obscured by these markings.

Author's note: Yes the armor color pattern is loosely based off of Boba Fett's and the marking are kinda based off of Pacific Islander tattoos.
