From the album: White Scars Homebrew Chapters
The Desert Hawks are a loyalist non Codex-compliant Successor Chapter created from the lineage of the ancient and heroic White Scars during the 8th Founding. It's a small and endangered Chapter with only three ordinary companies left after the Soul War - a hard won victory almost 300 years ago against the Chaos Lord Haman Mal of Tzeentch and his daemons. This victory nearly destroyed the Chapter. Read More:© Algrim Whitefang

Celestial Heralds_Armorial

From the album: White Scars Homebrew Chapters
The Celestial Heralds are a Loyalist Successor Space Marine Chapter created during the 15th Founding from the proud and noble lineage of the White Scars. The history and character of the Celestial Heralds is inseparable from the sub-sector they call home and have defended for the past five millennia. The Huaguo Sub-Sector has a long and proud history of culture and productivity under the Imperium of Man. Though obscured by warp storms for an extended period, when they made their first contact in a centuries following the opening of the Cicatrix Maledictum, Terra came to realize that Huaguo sub-sector was reeling from blows it may never be able to recover from. Rebellious elements of every stripe have begun to pick apart the once peaceful region, with one having been so successful they even forced the sub-sector's Great Purity government into signing a treaty handing over worlds and establishing heretical embassies on loyalist planets. The Tau empire has taken advantage of the sub-sector's weakness to employ both trickery and violence in taking a whole swathe of northern mining worlds and are now worryingly close to the capitol hiveworld, Jingxing. But worst of all is the decadent decay that has struck at the very highest levels of the sub-sector. The civilian government is run by a group known as the Eunuchs, once able administrators who have now devolved into almost comically nepotistic and corrupt bureaucrats. Compounding the issue, the chapter master of the Celestial Heralds is deeply involved with these Eunuchs and through personal loyalty, political blindness, and a complete loss of touch with the situation in his old age, has allowed his control of the situation to completely deteriorate. Reinforcements and Primaris Space Marine upgrades were sent to the sub-sector as soon as contact was made, but further assistance has since been put on hold. It is as yet unclear whether the Huaguo Sub-Sector should be considered fully loyal, or if measures should be implemented. The High Lords of Terra have placed the matter on their docket for consideration with high priority, and we expect a decree on the topic in only a few more centuries.

Uncrowned Princes Armorial
Algrim Whitefang posted a gallery image in Adeptus Astartes/Legiones Astartes
From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
"The measure of true glory is not to give battle in the bright noon of war, surrounded by brave comrades upon the field of victory, but to valiantly fight on alone in the darkness, with no hope of aid or even remembrance, and to spit defiance in midnight's eye." — Lion El'Jonson, Reflections on the Mirror of War, Vol III The Uncrowned Princes are a recently-founded Successor Chapter of the Dark Angels that was created during the recent Ultima Founding during the 42nd Millennium and is comprised entirely of Primaris Space Marines. Styled after the old Dark Angels Legion that existed during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy, the Uncrowned Princes, as they have been known as, have also inherited the old tenets of the Lion during their creation. Due to this, they are noted to have made many major tactical and organizational deviations from the Codex Astartes, as they use a modified version of the Hexagrammaton, which was how the old Dark Angels Legion was organized. Hailing from the forested death world of Blackhaven, which is virtually identical in both climate and culture to Caliban, the destroyed death world that served as the homeworld of the Dark Angels, their parent chapter. The Uncrowned Princes have been forged into Astartes due to their experience of hunting down the large monsters of their homeworld as they seek to take on the biggest foes they can find, whether in sheer size or sheer numbers. During their founding, the Uncrowned Princes were given a significant portion of the old First Legion's arsenal to use in battle. Read More: Uncrowned Princes© Algrim Whitefang

The Rift Reapers are an Ultima Founding Space Marine chapter using gene-seed taken from the secretive Dark Angels and their Primarch Lion El'Jonson. They were officially founded in the first wave of primaris chapters during the Indomitus Crusade, though they were part of the pre-founding batches of primaris used for testing the new organs and equipment that were created and deployed in small amounts prior to the actual founding. While at first they were ignorant to much of their primogenitor chapter's true history, by the end of the Indomitus Crusade the chapter's Inner circle was aware of the Fallen and have fervently joined the secretive ranks of the Unforgiven in the hunt for them.

From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
The Paladins of Caliban or in High Gothic the Custodians Calibani are a Successor Chapter created from the lineage of the ancient and mysterious Dark Angels. As they're an Ultima Founding Chapter, they're composed entirely of Primaris Space Marines. As a member of the Unforgiven, they've learned their progenitor chapter's secrecy and, as such, have been known for being extremely secretive towards their allies during battles or campaigns.

The Iron Seraphs are a Loyalist fleet-based Successor Chapter descended from the venerable Angels of Absolution, whom themselves are descended from the ancient and mysterious Dark Angels Chapter. This Chapter is composed entirely of Primaris Space Marines, created during the most recent Ultima Founding. Operating in the Justicar sub-Sector of the Armageddon Sector, the Iron Seraphs are highly active at prosecuting the wars of the Imperium against the myriad of enemies of Mankind. Like their fellow Unforgiven Chapters, the Iron Seraphs are driven to prosecute the Dark Angels' secret war against The Fallen, and are more than willing to answer their progenitors' call to war in order to achieve their objectives.

Inheritors of Caliban Armorial

From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
The Inheritors of Caliban are a Codex-compliant Chapter created in the Ultima Founding descended from the venerable Dark Angels. Though a noble and pious Chapter, their name hides a dark secret few of them are privy to. The Inheritors of Caliban did not just inherit the genetic legacy of Lion El'Jonson, but the dark secrets hidden by the Dark Angels. Of course these secrets were not granted to the Inheritors easily, for the Dark Angels were hesitant to trust the Primaris with the secrets the First Born had kept for millennia. Even so, the Inheritors of Caliban proved worthy of the secrets and now count themselves among the Unforgiven. Read More: Inheritors of Caliban© Algrim Whitefang

The Harvesters is a loyalist Space Marine Chapter created during the recent Ultima Founding from the ancient and aloof Dark Angels. Since its inception, this Chapter has garnered a reputation for its cold calculating approach to waging wars. More so than in other chapters the life of each battle-brother is considered secondary to his duty. This astartes chapter earned a fearsome reputation for their ability to get behind enemy lines and dismantle the command structure. Their mastery to prosecute a swift and silent style of war, to smother the enemy's ability to resist, steal their will to fight with precision strikes, and gain the acquisition of key intelligence for use by other forces. And their dedication to their duties make them highly effective warriors. Read More: Harvesters© Algrim Whitefang

From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
"My brothers we stand on the brink of a new age, an age where those who fought in the legions and alongside the Lion are gone. We stand not as Dark Angels but as Silver Lions. To be a Silver Lion is to be an exemplar of the Ist, a paragon of Lion El'Jonson, a fierce warrior and a true servant of the Emperor." — Supreme Grand Master Decanius at the founding of the Silver Lions. The Silver Lions are a honourable and venerated 3rd Founding Successor Chapter created from the lineage of Lion El'Jonson who refused to adhere to the strictures of the Codex Astartes. Much like their brothers in the Unforgiven, they too take part in the Hunt for the Fallen but they are far less willing to abandon those they have pledged to defend, instead sending smaller elements of the chapter to hunt them whilst the remaining brothers carry out their duty to the Imperium. In fact the Silver Lions are less concerned with hunting the Fallen, seeing it as no more important than other tasks, unless a particular Fallen presents a major threat to the Imperium. However they still hunt the fallen if it is deemed practical to do so. The Silver Lions themselves were established on the belief that the teachings of the Lion are superior to that of the Codex and as such they follow the Hexagrammiton and the Hekatonystika instead of the Codex Astartes. Although the Lions use these formations, the modern chapters versions of the Hexagrammiton and Hekatonystika are a far cry from their original legion counter-parts and have been moulded by the chapter over millennia into the static organisations they are today.

"A confession... why in the Lions name would I want that?" — Unknown Interrogator-Chaplain to a captured Fallen Angel. The Sable Pride is a semi-Codex compliant successor of the venerable and ancient Dark Angels Chapter, that was founded in order to hunt down a specific Fallen during M37. The Prides' history has been fraught with misfortune and treachery as they have sought to complete their duty to the Emperor and the Lion. The chapter even suffered its own civil war known as the War of the Two Prides, which damaged the psyche of the chapter and caused a slow turn away from the Unforgiven, who they now hold a tenuous relationship with, completely ignoring the word of the Supreme Grand Master and even firing upon fellow chapters. Despite this, the Pride still hunts the Fallen, but places far more importance on capturing their own traitors from the warband, Dothanes Pride. When found, neither of these groups are asked for confessions of crimes the chapter is fully aware of and instead emphasises excruciating torture before an eventual execution, in order to mirror the suffering inflicted upon the chapter. The chapter itself has become masters of siege and urban warfare and their specialised 2nd company, the Spearwing, is made up entirely of heavy armour such as Land Raiders and Predators. Today the Sable Pride is bloodied and beaten with its home and primary charge, the Pontifex Cluster, ravaged by war whilst great swaths of its territory lay in enemy hands. Even the chapter's reinforcements from the likes of the Ebon Angels come with hidden motives to investigate the Pride for treason against the Unforgiven and what other support they brought is underwhelming at best for the task at hand. Now the Sable Pride stands on the precipice of either their salvation through the impossible act of reconquering the Cluster or damnation by the hand of the Ebon Angels.

"They are what they need to be. None can fault them for that." — Supreme Grand Master Azrael of the Dark Angels The Marines Baleful are a 15th Founding Dark Angels Successor Chapter, one with a dark and shrouded history. Originally known as the Angels of Valiance, a proud and arrogant chapter obsessed with their own superiority. However, after their arrogance nearly became their downfall, the chapter underwent drastic changes to its structure, livery, and and culture, renaming themselves the Marines Baleful. They have since become a mysterious and potent force against the enemies of the Imperium, striking fear into the hearts of their foes. Read More: Marines Baleful© Algrim Whitefang

Knights Triumphant Armorial

From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
"...And now they shall receive us. The sadist heretics shall soon have thrust upon them the terror and tyranny they have wrought on to others throughout the galaxy. Let not their appearance fool you, for they are cowardly, and you are strong. You are children of the Imperium, you have been trained by our righteous hand. You fight for your freedom today alongside sons of The Lion, and our enemy shall know no quarter." — Supreme Grand Master Mikhael Red-Hand to an unaugmented human guerilla force before the final push to liberate their planet from the Night Lords The Knights Triumphant are a Loyalist Successor Chapter created from the lineage of the ancient and secretive First Founding Dark Angels, and as such, this makes them one of many Chapters that make up the unofficial collective known as the Unforgiven. The Knights Triumphant were created during the 7th Founding sometime during the 34th Millennium. The Knights Triumphant in many ways stand in stark contrast to their Unforgiven brethren, in deed, philosophy and strategy. At the end of the day, however, they are the sons of The Lion, and will always stand proudly alongside The Unforgiven, whenever the call to action sounds.

Kharonean Martyrs Armorial

From the album: Dark Angels Homebrew Chapters
"Great is the service we perform, and so our payment must be of equal worth. Our blades will carry you over the great rivers beyond, and our fires shall purify that which is impure. Nothing may be given freely, for the debt always comes due." —Chapter Master Orthus The Kharonean Martyrs is a loyalist Chapter of the Adeptus Astartes, created during the 18th Founding, though the exact date of their inception has been lost to the shifting tides of time. They belong to the gene-line of Lion El'Jonson, which makes them a part of the Unforgiven successors of the Dark Angels Legion. They are, for the most part, adherent to the structures of the Codex Astartes, though many of their methods are somewhat unorthodox when stood beside other Space Marine Chapters. On the field of battle, the Kharoneans Martyrs prefer to look their enemies in the eyes as they tear their bodies apart with the teeth of their chainswords and burn what remains in the purifying fires of their melta guns. As far as their beliefs are concerned, death is a personal affair that deserves due respect, for all brothers of the order see themselves as the ferrymen who carry the souls of the living, both saintly and foul, across the endless rivers of the afterlife. All who meet their fury are delivered to the other side of the veil, so that they may find the rest that must follow all life. This service, as they like to think of it, does not come without cost, however. Whenever the Chapter comes to the aid of a beleaguered system or fights alongside other Imperial forces, they will demand compensation for the blood they shed. Once their blades are pledged to a cause, the ferrymen will perform their duty with utmost dedication and unrelenting determination, gladly accepting the martyrdom that awaits them in the fires of war. Even so, their services are never given freely, nor is their zeal. To replenish the high numbers of men, equipment, and other resources they expend, the officers of the Kharonean Martyrs will name a steep price to whoever possesses the means to pay them. It is merely their due reward, for a debt incurred through the sacrifice of Astartes lives, and so they feel little shame about taking what is rightfully theirs. Many additional structures and roles have been incorporated into their organisation to facilitate the managing of resources and tithes collected by the Chapter, though much of their Chapter Cult is also dedicated to ensuring that their warriors do not succumb to greed and avarice. As important as the acquisition of resources is for the Martyrs, such wealth, in the end, is meant to serve a need. Read More: Kharonean Martyrs© Algrim Whitefang

The Iron Templars are an ancient Chapter descended from the lineage of the venerable Dark Angels. Believed to have been created at the dawn of the 32nd Millennium, the Iron Templars have continued to follow in the footsteps of their genetic forbears, to relentlessly hunt down every single Fallen Angel and force them to repent. Despite their secretive nature and dedication to seeking out the Fallen, the Iron Templars have garnered a reputation as an honourable and dedicated Chapter who fiercely protect their planetary system of Aquitaine against the gathering darkness from Chaos, xenos and the myriad threats that threaten the Imperium on all sides. As a Chapter steeped in the feudal traditions of its Chapter home world, the Iron Templars' doctrines, traditions, and organisation reflect their particular approach to prosecuting the Imperium's wars.
