Grey Knights
In the table-top wargame Warhammer 40,000, the Grey Knights are a mysterious chapter of Space Marines.
The Grey Knights are unique among the Legiones Astartes as the only chapter to have full knowledge of the dark secrets of Chaos - they alone know of the existence of Daemons and of their appearance in the real world, and they alone are equipped to battle and defeat mankind's most terrible enemy.
While the Grey Knights are technically members of the Adeptus Astartes, they do not involve themselves with the ordinary activities of the Space Marines. They are instead, a part of the Inquisition. They act as the military arm of the Ordo Malleus, with their Chapter Monastary being located on Saturn's moon Titan.
The Grey Knights are unique in that they have no antecedants or decendants. The Chapter's gene-seed is rumoured to have been laid down by the Emperor of Mankind himself at some time between the start of the Horus Heresy and the Second Founding. Unusually for a Space Marine Chapter all Gery Knights are psykers, some of terrifying ability. The highest rank a Grey Knight can achieve is that of Grand Master, these truely awe inspiring individuals are amongst the greatest of the Emperor's servants. One of the Grey Knight's Grand Masters is usually a member of the inner conclave of the Inquisition. In the Chapters long history it has the highest honour of all, not one Grey Knight has ever turned to Chaos.
