Meros' bequest to his Legion now lay secured. +++ Der Cruor Angelus +++ 1 K.18. This practice, of course, ended with the tragic death of Sanguinius at the hands of Horus during the Siege of Terra. The people of Baal died in their millions and it looked as if humanity might become extinct in the Baal System. The rivalry with the World Eaters now escalated into bitter enmity as the two Legions found themselves serving different masters, and their confrontations were to be amongst the bloodiest and hardest fought of that bloodiest of wars. Now they fought in small isolated companies, each fostering its own distinct brand of the red cults that had spread across the Legion. Initially, they easily quashed any bands of savages making strikes against the edges of their line, but quickly these became an unending deluge of bodies which threatened to overwhelm and encircle the remains of the three companies. They look for the first time on the unmasked faces of their future brother Marines, and not with some consternation their sharp eye-teeth and sleekly beautiful features. In ancient days Baal and its moons had Earth-like atmospheres. Librarian Dreadnoughts combine the firepower and armour of a Furioso Dreadnought, enhanced by the abilities of the Librarian entombed within.

As they gathered their forces to depart the system and return to Baal, the Blood Angels left behind Librarian Asmasael and a squad of 10th Company Scouts. There, on the sands of Baal, they were met by the newly-raised and trained contingents of Astartes drawn from The Blood, the native people of that rad-scoured system, whom Sanguinius himself had raised up and schooled in the arts of war. Sanguinius vowed that Meros' sacrifice would not be in vain, and that one day, he would find a way to free him from the daemon that now possessed his mortal shell.

For all the might of the Emperor, for every effort of Sanguinius and the remaining Loyalist Primarchs, the forces of Horus drove all before them.

Even amongst an entire Chapter of remarkable heroes, the commanders of the Blood Angels stand out as the most magnificent of all.

The reconstruction of His empire and the final rout of the traitor forces would now fall to the surviving Primarchs, men such as Rogal Dorn of the Imperial Fists and Roboute Guilliman of the Ultramarines.

As he continued enacting a dark ritual, a large World Eaters' murderfleet arrived in-sytem, led by the infamous Berzerker Khârn the Betrayer.

The following are abilities of the Librarius Discipline: Technomancy affects the spirits of machines the same way other psychic disciplines manipulate the minds of sentient creatures. Despite his grievous wounds, Sanguinius managed to match Horus' martial prowess, even at the height of his daemonic power, and Horus was forced to deal with the Angel by psychic methods. The gestation pod that housed the infant Sanguinius came to rest upon the moon of Baal Secundus, at the place now known as Angel's Fall.

The IXth Legion stood upon a knife's edge. The Black Rage.

Unfortunately, the foundation of Imperium Secundus was marred when Night Lords Primarch Konrad Curze, who had been hiding within the bowels of the Dark Angels flagship, escaped from the Invincible Reason and rampaged across Macragge, intent on spreading as much terror and chaos as he could. The Blood Angels now faced the true fury of Chaos for the first time. Before the daemon could bellow its fury, Sanguinius broke its back over his knee.

The young Sanguinius was a prodigy -- he grew quickly and learned everything his adoptive parents could teach him. Lance beams hammered Titan Void Shields, or atomised squads of Assault Marines. Many lords of the Adeptus Astartes visit the quiet, dusty halls of the Librarium to draw their inspiration and resolve from the ancient book in times of darkness.

The Imperial forces had gathered to form a great noose, marshalling their strength before they struck the last blow to eradicate the Chaos threat once and for all. Yet none amongst the Primarchs would have as profound an effect upon their progeny as did Sanguinius. Some, such as the Angels Encarmine, have established a reputation beyond reproach and a legacy of heroism every bit as honourable as their founding Legion. It is said that Horus hated and feared Sanguinius more than any of his brothers and wove many strategies to ensnare or slay him, though all failed.

When Guilliman named Dante as his Regent of the Imperium Nihilus, the Lord of Baal felt the hand of fate land heavy upon his shoulder. They are no less lethal for this, however -- a lesson that many foes have learned to their cost. The process of Insanguination was originally triggered by injecting the Aspirants with tiny samples of their Primarch's own blood. When they held the line, their followers dug in, and when they laid down their blades, those around them ceased the killing. His armour became dark and disfigured, joints steaming, the shell of it trembling as it fought to contain energies never meant to be bound to this reality. This force was spread across the galaxy in a number of separate Hosts, each engaged in large scale operations, as well as custodial forces at each of the Legion's main bases and redoubts -- these being at the worlds of Baal, Saiph and Canopus. Some, however, belong to senior officers whose injuries are too great for continued combat, but whose wisdom still holds great value. Instead of using the standard Codex-compliant symbols to show a unit's squad specialty or helmet colour to denote rank, the Blood Angels' helms indicate their operational role. In the years before Sanguinius' return, no few of the other Primarchs expressed a distaste with the practises of the IXth Legion, though they could not dispute their success on the battlefield.

It is well known that the Sons of Sanguinius keep a firmly united counsel, convening on matters of grave import from time to time. The Blood Angels paint their Power Armour blood red, with a black Chapter badge and squad markings in the colour of the Space Marine's company. At the same time, the Blood Angels Librarians violated the edicts of the Council of Nikaea and used their abilities to heal and revive their Primarch. Perhaps more of their vehicles survived the Horus Heresy intact, or perhaps the Blood Angels were once closer allies of the Adeptus Mechanicus than their current, strained relations would suggest.

These modifications have a negative effect on the vehicle as a whole, and the Blood Angels' Rhinos are prone to breakdowns if their engines are pushed too hard.

Not long after, the Dark Angels also followed the guiding beacon of the Pharos and arrived in the Five Hundred Worlds. The 2nd through 5th Companies are the Chapter's backbone, the Battle Companies who form the core of any strike force. Yet the expert leadership of Astorath and Death Company Chaplain Daenor restored some order to the afflicted brothers' ranks. It was then that Ceris, a Librarian in Rafen's squad, psychically contacted Rafen and bade him to attack a strange Warp signature to prevent Bile from escaping. These companies were grouped into "Hosts" for campaigns requiring greater force of numbers than that possessed of a single company, though each Host was a temporary creature broken and made as tactical need required. The action had a strange, ritual quality to it. The winged Primarch knew full well that no future was absolute, no dark fate beyond hope of repair, and with the end of the battle for Teghar he declared, "even though a darkness hangs over them, a future soaked in blood and horror, they are angels yet. Some of these revered artefacts can be traced back ten millennia to the bloody fighting of the Horus Heresy, and when not seeing use in battle, these treasured relics reside within the mighty Arx Angelicum on Baal.

And, according to the divinations of Lord Xorphas and his followers, it was full to the brim with howling daemons. Life support nodes are attached to them and for the next Terran year they are fed intravenously with a mixture of nutrients and the Blood of Sanguinius while the gene-seed does its work. Once Sanguinius awoke, he assaulted Ka'Bandha and defeated the Bloodthirster. They were little more than bags of skin and meat in the shape of a human being, misshapen under the weight of their own mass. Curze went on to explain that there was a monster in his head that he could not stop. The Blood Angels and their Primarch joined the Great Crusade as equals, looked down upon by none and followed the call of war to the stars. The Blood Angels' Furioso Dreadnought variant eschews the heavy weaponry normally carried by Space Marine Dreadnoughts, replacing it with a second close combat weapon. The unique genetic template of the IXth Legion's as-yet unknown sire seemed to favour the twisted and warped, though the pain it inflicted on those inducted into the Legion was more than most could bear. At the height of this confrontation, as the Primarch prepared to strike a killing blow against the fallen Bloodthirster, Ka'bandha struck a dishonourable blow with its massive barbed whip around the Primarch's legs, smashing the Angel to the ground. By the last years of the Great Crusade, the Blood Angels were among, if not themselves, the preeminent Legion of the Imperial Host.

After becoming a Space Marine, Rafen quickly earned the rank of Sergeant and commanded his own squad among the Blood Angels.

Leading elements consisting of the 1st, 2nd and afflicted 5th Companies, Astrorath the Grim and Lemartes put the Traitor forces to flight. However, they cannot be counted upon to hold a position in the same disciplined way as the Ultramarines or Dark Angels, as the Black Rage can afflict any Marine in the midst of battle, inciting him to charge forward in an attempt to tear the enemy limb from limb. I have been playing 40K since '92, and I don't remember any mention of a "Red Angel" in the old Realms of Chaos books. The Tyranids began the process of absorbing all biomass from Baal and its moons, absorbing even the radiation-poisoned deserts of Baal Secundus. Filled with ancient tomes and sacred scrolls, every piece of text laid down by the Chapter, or relevant to its existence, is housed within. It states that the native In comparison to the rest of their wargear, a Blood Angel's Bolter will normally boast a matt black casing. Each of the campaigns was a new trial, a subtle test selected with keen insight by the two Primarchs to salve the wounds inflicted by time and fate upon the Blood Angels. They were the planners and strategists of the crimson host, they directed battles and wars as lesser men directed symphonies, utilising each instrument at their command to its utmost. The following are abilities of the Geokinesis Discipline: To be entombed within the armoured sarcophagus of a Dreadnought is the greatest honour a Space Marine can be awarded, for even though his body may have been broken, his mind and spirit remains in the service of the Chapter, his Primarch, and the Emperor. The Chapter seeks the beauty of perfection in all it does, and in one particular field of warfare surpasses all other practitioners. News reached Baal that the Cryptan Shield, the Shieldworlds of the Cryptus System, intended to hold back the might of the Great Devourer, had collapsed. He witnessed Ka'bandha slaughter 500 of his sons with a single blow of his mighty axe.
