What they have discovered remains unknown to outsiders. ![]() The Chapter's Apothecaries and Librarians have researched their Primaris gene-seed extensively for any clues as to the Blood Ravens' unknown origins. The decimation that the Blood Ravens endured as a Chapter while being cut off from reinforcement and aid necessitated a rapid induction of these new transhuman progeny. Perhaps because of this, the Blood Ravens hunger for knowledge, and are particularly obsessive about discovering the truth behind their creation.Īfter being cut off from the Imperium at large by the birth of the Great Rift, the Blood Ravens were delivered the gene-seed to make their own Primaris Space Marines by Shield Captain Apollus Pertinax of the Adeptus Custodes. Their own records have been expunged, and the ones kept by the Ordo Malleus concerning the Chapter are sealed. The Blood Ravens are now a Fleet-based Chapter following the loss of their home planet. Some members of the Adeptus Administratum believe that this reliance upon their psykers is a potential disaster, while others respect and fear the advantages these talented Battle-Brothers have repeatedly provided to their Chapter. Their tendency to rely heavily upon a higher than normal number of psychically-talented Space Marines only serves to further differentiate the Blood Ravens from most other Chapters. These Battle-Brothers have repeatedly shown a willingness to accept non-traditional techniques and extreme approaches so that some lost relic or tome could be recovered and secured within their vaults. These arcane powers have led to great speculation and some worry about the true nature and origins of this Chapter in the rest of the Imperium of Man.Īs much as they are known for their bravery and combat efficiency, the Blood Ravens Chapter is also renowned for its obsession with recovering lost information and technology. The powerful Blood Ravens Librarians guide the Chapter, enabling them to fight with a precision and calculated fury made possible by their ability to predict and thwart their enemy's strategies and tactics before they come to pass. It produces an unusually large number of Librarians among its ranks as a high proportion of Neophytes develop psychic abilities soon after their implantation with the Blood Ravens' gene-seed organs. This elusive Chapter has always been drawn to the pursuit of knowledge and the acquisition of ancient lore. The origins of the Blood Ravens are shrouded in mystery and are believed to be tied to a dark truth related to the Horus Heresy. The Blood Ravens are a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter of unknown origins and Founding.
