Sons of Sanguinius

Blood Angels

“For Sanguinius and the Emperor!”

Descended from the angelic Sanguinius, slain by Horus upon the Blood Angels' own flagship, the IX Legion's sons carry both his nobility and his curse. Every Blood Angel fights the slow spiral toward the Red Thirst, a hunger for blood, and the Black Rage, a psychic echo of their primarch's death that can turn a Battle-Brother into a shrieking, murderous wreck. Yet from this torment comes artistry: the Blood Angels are sculptors, painters and poets who hurl themselves at the foe with a beauty born of desperation, determined to die well and take the Emperor's enemies with them.
