Sanguinius' Blood

[Orblivion]

So we know that Sanguinius' blood carries a measure of his psychic power in it.  Even in its diluted form as blood drawn from a Sanguinary Priest it is responsible for initiating the change into an Astartes and often gives the aspirants visions/nightmares, and it is possible that it is involved in the Black Rage.  So my question is, can that psychic power be channeled?  For instance, could Sanguinius' blood in its purest form power a force sword for a non-psyker?

Probably, but it’s certainly Heresy to use it for such things.

[Xenith]

Yes, why not. Using Sanguinius's corpse as a battery for your light sabre, however, might be a bit sacrilegious.

 

Why not have the pure Sanguinius blood in a gem in the hilt burn out the souls is heretics?

 

You could say the non psyker has an encarmine weapon? They're essentially the same as force weapons?

That's more along the lines of what I was thinking, a vial of his blood inserted into the weapon like some sort of power core.  And yeah, the weapon would have the same stats as an Encarmine weapon or Force weapon, it was just an idea I was kicking around for my own character's "relic" as it were.

It's a big universe, and the Blood Angels are a desperate chapter, no reason they won't do that.

 

The latest BA book shows the gem on the death mask of Sanguinius actually contains a drop of his blood, so there is a precedent.

Except I was under the impression that the blood in the Death Mask of Sanguinius was the only remaining unspoiled blood. a long with the drops on the feather in Amit's Reliquary.

Officially yes, but this is just for my own personal character.

[tychobi]

Sure. Not like physics is an issue

[bushman101]

doesn't the Spear of Telesto have a drop of Sanguinius' blood? (Or is that another Relic)

[Xenith]

Every drop is the last one until the next one.
