    The best aspect about the Blood Ravens is that DoW2 and its expansion have established as canon that they have numerous artifacts of other chapters in their armory, including a Custodes armor as well as the weapons of several Primarchs, both loyal and traitor.

      To be fair to the british museum, have you seen the way some of the countries they orginally took that stuff from treat their own historical artificats. If a blood raven notices an ornate shiny power sword that probably has some cool history behind it and the planetary governor who it belongs to only really uses it as a fancy toy or emperor forbid as kitchen ware for his chef servitors to slice the grox roast, I dare say its better off being 'gifted' to the chapter.

Inevitably many shall fault the hands upon the sword that fell Typhon, the Ordo Malleus. But the Inquisition merely performs the duty of it's office. To further fear them is redundant; to hate them, heretical.
    Those more sensible will place responsibility with those who forced the hands of the Inquisition... With some fortune, they may foster this hatred into purpose, and further rule their own fates by coming to the Emperor's service.

      I prefer the oldest fluff, that suggested that the Blood Ravens are the loyalist survivors of one of the lost Legions. Since we had Dark Angels and Blood Angels, why not Ravens and Blood Ravens. But every Space Marine Chapter, live or dead, loyal or traitor has people thinking they are somehow one of lost and forgotten. While in reality like most Chapters are more likely a cast off from the Ultramarines, because of said 'problems.' But took the name 'Blood' and 'Raven' at the insistence of Ultramarines, so as to confuse people and keep the Ultramarines name out of it and again the Blood Raven's 'addictions'.

    My theory: Blood Ravens are a Grey Knights successor chapter who honours the Pre-Heresy Thousand Sons Legion. One of the Loyalist Thousand Sons became Janus after one of Magnus's shards were implanted in him.
    So, it's possible the Blood Ravens' gene sire is Janus himself. That might explain as to why there are so many Librarians in the Blood Ravens Chapter and explains their fascination with ancient relics as well as their thirst for knowledge.

    Dawn of War 2 actually focuses on the 4th company, not the 5th. All the armors in-game are marked with a "IV" on the shoulder, and Davian Thule is/was canonically the captain of the 4th company. The only reason the 5th company gets brought up in some sources is because the guy who wrote the novelization of the games didn't care about any established lore and wrote whatever he wanted.

    • @40KTheories
      @40KTheories  3 роки тому

      The game may focus on the 4th company, but the recent Index Astartes article featured in White Dwarf (in addition to the novels) does state that it was the 3rd and 5th companies. Given that the index astartes article was only printed just over a year ago with an official GW publication, this is a clear case of a retcon.

    • @AstartesGaming
      @AstartesGaming 3 роки тому

      @@40KTheories It's an oversight at best;
      that article is full of lore inaccuracies and conflicts. It would take several more retcons going all the way back to the Dark Crusade expansion for DoW1 for their claim to maintain any sort of continuity.
      The article doesn't even maintain internal continuity: "The Fated" 5th company that GW invented is said to be distinct from all other companies in their behavior and the badges of shame they wear, yet none of this is ever present in any DoW-related material (games, books, comics, etc). They also reference the Aurelian Crusades as long passed events despite the fact that the 3rd crusade may not have even happened yet in the current Dark Imperium timeline.

    I believe they are descendent from Lorgar and the 17th legion. If you think about it, they worship the emperor with religious zeal, I believe Angelos or the librarian from dow1 has the voice line "I bear his word!"
    They recruit from the AURELIAN sub sector and main recruiting world was called AURELIA and Angelos' home world was called CYRENE (before he had it blown up for heresy) perhaps named in honour Cyrene Velantion the "blessed lady" and Confessor to the commanders of the 17th LEGION? I don't think its to much a stetch and we know that not all astartes turned traitor with horus. Perhaps they are an emalgum of surviving loyalists from the traitors? Maybe why they seem to have traits from several different and contradicting sources?

    How they study before a strike is like the Dark Angels in start of the Crusade before reunification with the Lion when knowledge learning the ways of war was learn or discard info to become stronger. And the gene seed stability and non-existent quirk of it. The dark angels has disowned successors that don't know the parent chapters secrets.
