BLOOD ANGELS & FLESH TEARERS
Originally published in issues 251 and 261 of White Dwarf, we present the background for two of the most bloodthirsty Space Marine Chapters – the First Founding Blood Angels and their Successor Chapter, the Flesh Tearers.
THE BLOOD ANGELS
The Blood Angels were once regarded as the most blessed of all the Legions of the Adeptus Astartes, possessed of the bravery and puissant skill of their Primarch, Sanguinius. But the events of the Horus Heresy dealt them a terrible blow, the loss of their angelic forefather himself. His death was so terrible that it left a deep scar in every member of the Legion, and ever since that dark day, it is whispered that the Blood Angels have carried a terrible curse within their veins.

THE FLESH TEARERS
The Flesh Tearers Chapter was created during the Second Founding, from the Blood Angels Legion. The Flesh Tearers possess the same savagery and fearsome reputation as the Blood Angels, but have also inherited the Black Rage. Indeed, the Black Rage has become more apparent and it is now only a matter of time before the entire Chapter is consumed.
