Victorus aut mortis! Corax arrives!
What a bad ass model, I love it! Corvus Corax is the Primarch of the Raven Guard and one of the more compelling Primarchs in the 40k universe (IMO). He was raised on a mining moon and led the people there to their freedom before rejoining his legion. After nearly dying on Istvaan in a conflict with Lorgar and Konrad Curze, Corax tried to rebuild his battered legion by accelerating the process of making an Astartes. This lead to horrible mutations but did bring the Raven Guard back up to fighting strength, enabling them to help fight the traitor legions. After the battle for Terra, Corax felt ashamed of what he had done and fled into the Eye of Terror to seek penance and has not been seen since.
Corax is known for his intelligence, strategic genius (he even beat Robute in a contest of strategy!) and cunning. Unlike other chapters, the Raven Guard are known for laying traps, and striking from the shadows. Corax personifies these attributes. He even has the ability to will himself not to be seen by those he is in the presence of, effectively becoming invisible!
He is certainly an awesome character and I can’t wait to see a painted version of this bad ass. What do you guys think of him?
