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. | 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.

[[File:Stormwing Paladin.png|thumb|The Stormwing feature the elite of the elite, home of the chapter's fiercest warriors and veterans of crusades.]] | |||
=== Organization === | |||
Unlike their parent chapter and other successors from the genestock of Lion El’ Jonson, rather than following the archetype of the Deathwing and Ravenwing - the 1st and 2nd chapters are broken into a similar format. | |||
==== 1st Company - Stormwing ==== | |||
The Stormwing, like their parent chapter, represent a special operations unit specializing in not only line-breaking but also as elite veteran infantry and honor guards. However, the 1st Company is home to not exclusively Terminator Veterans, but instead, Veterans of any variations such as Sternguard or Paladin Orders. | |||
==== 2nd Company - Blackwing ==== | |||
The Blackwing varies greatly from the Ravenwing. Instead, they interpret the mobile hunter's aspect of the parent Ravenwing to be more reconnaissance focused. The Blackwing is home to exclusively all Phobos equipped marines, and most (if not all), vehicles that solely focus on reporting and tactical data. The Blackwing prioritizes stealth and mobility, referencing the hunters of the Order of the Raven of their gene-father’s home of Caliban and their ability to survive and navigate the Death World forests alone. | |||
==== 3rd-9th Companies - Battle Company ==== | |||
The remaining companies are organized along Codex doctrine guidelines. | |||
==== 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. | |||
