The Blood Angels are the noble descendants of that most puissant and angelic of the primarchs - Sanguinius. With these tithes of new recruits, and the recent arrival of the Primaris Space Marines during the Indomitus Crusade, the Blood Angels were able to replenish their losses, though they still face a time of trial like none the Chapter has known since the days of the Horus Heresy. Under the threat of extinction, and in order to quickly replenish their numbers, the Blood Angels were forced to ask their kindred Successor Chapters from subsequent Astartes Foundings for a tithe of warriors from the related Chapters' pools of neophytes, their candidate Space Marines. The Blood Angels are amongst the longest-living of the Adeptus Astartes, with some of the Chapter's Space Marines having served the Emperor of Mankind for over a thousand standard years.ĭue to recent events, the Blood Angels' numbers were severely depleted.
They are well-known across the galaxy for their bloodthirsty nature in battle, and feared for the curse of flawed gene-seed they carry.
The Blood Angels are one of the 20 First Founding Legions of the Space Marines and were originally the IX th Legion before the Second Founding broke the Legiones Astartes up into separate Chapters of 1,000 Space Marines each.
