During the Era Indomitus, the chapter was able to re-establish communique with the Imperium Sanctus, and participated in the Indomitus Crusade - receiving well-needed reinforcements from Primarch Guilliman’s newly made Primaris Marines.

The Dawnguard are described as hungry to reclaim their lost glory of old, a stark contrast to their parent chapter who typically shun laurels and achievements. They frequently undertake endeavors with other arms of the Imperium’s military, and are described as chivalrous, tactful, and perceptive. They remain untrusting of outside sources however, preferring their own measures and proven battle methodology when working with other arms of the Imperium, surely a trait inherited from their parent chapter.

==== Paladin Orders ====
Veterans who have proven themselves as heroes to the chapter in their own individual right are inducted into one of the many Paladin Orders within the chapter. The Paladin orders often act as personal honor guard to the Company Masters. There is much competitiveness within these orders, as each within each company seeks to outdo any competing Company Paladin Order. At the end of every standard Terran year, the current Grandmaster arbitrates an induction ceremony, where the Paladins of each company select prominent veterans within the company to induct into their order - and the drafting process order is dictated by boasts and accomplishments from the respective head of the orders, for the Grandmaster to decide which order is awarded the next selection of an eligible veteran.

Paladin Orders exist in all companies, functioning as a veteran presence that Battle Companies can be inspired by on the battlefield.
