Lehavah Lenessey

The Lehavah Lenessey are a unique way for the Fire Keepers Legion to combine their two greatest talents in one formation. Breachers famous for their roles in the Legiones Astartes as besieging and defending units, that display an intense coolness under fire, are rewarded by a promotion to the Lehavah Lenessey squads. These squads are reissued flamers as a standard load out, and are expected to hold and attack the most nightmarish scenarios, with steadfast and detached bouts of cleansing flames. The boarding shields are maintained to provide a measure of protection to these veterans, as they approach under fire, or weather the fiercest bombardments, in order to deliver their deadly payload into the hearts of the foe.

For any member of the Fire Keepers, who pride the purity of fire over the prospects of continued survival, there is only one unit to aspire to.

Notable Engagements
The first ever example of the Lehavah Lenessey, was an impromptu formation upon the planet of Untara. The xenos forces there, were prone to sustained close range assaults, weathering bolt gun fire with supernatural abilities to duplicate themselves upon death, swarming the ground with hordes of diminutive copies.

Squald Askavah, had held the lines with their standard breachers loadout for much longer than could be anticipated, bearing the brunt of the assaults to buy their brothers time. However, once their bolt guns had been expended, it was considered a fruitless endeavour.

The only squad in their immediate vicinity was a Tactical Support Squad wielding flamers,. As the breachers fell back under their cover fire, an exchange occurred between the two Sergeants. Whatever was discussed has been lost in the midst of time, but what remains is the presentation of these weapons to Sergeant Askavah, the "Illuminator" famous for his hand flamer.

Rearmed with cleansing fire, the breachers continued to hold the line, Reaping an incredible tally of their foe, and barely remaining standing by the conclusion of the engagement.

The Primarch himself, after reading the engagement reports, commented on the effective pairing of these two deadly weapons, the shield and the flamer. It became a standard loadout within the Legion for the most veteran of breachers, and eventually a mark of honour.
