LEGION: Name of Legion when
founded.
PRIMARCH: Name of Primarch from which Legion
allegedly drew its geneseed.
WORLD: Where Legion was based. Worlds in
parentheses subsequently destroyed.
*: EXCOMMUNICATE TRAITORIS - Those Legions who turned
during the Great Heresy. |
|
| 1. Dark Angels.
For reasons undisclosed, the Dark Angels and their Second Founding
successors refer to themselves as the unforgiven. |
| 2. Space Wolves. "The
Space Wolves encourage genetic deviancy [re: extraordinary growth of
canines] and show extreme unorthodoxy in their tactics and
organisation." |
| 3. Blood Angels. Blood Angels
and their successors follow unconventional and deviant
gene-replication practices which has led to the debasement of their
gene-seed. Rumours of 'Red Thirst' and 'Black Rage' still
perpetuate, despite investigation on numerous occasions. |
| 4. Ultramarines. The
Ultramarines Legion is responsible for nearly 3/5ths of the
gene-core of the current Space Marine Chapters. The Ultramarines
Chapter rules large empires in Galactic South-East, known as
Ultramar, one of the most powerful institutions on the Eastern
Fringe. |
| 5. Lunar Wolves. The Lunar
Wolves were renamed Sons of Horus (c.125.M30). After the death of
Horus, they became known as the Black Legion. |
