We were born to kill not to build. We are not idle long enough to leave monuments and we leave no work of the enemy intact to spawn legends. We are the First Legion, and he that follows in our wake is death.”  \nAttr. Hector Thrane, Keeper of the Black Gate and First Master of the First Legion, 828.M30  \nStark and uncompromising, the Dark Angels were the first of the Emperor’s Legions and the truest to the mould from which the Legiones Astarteshad been struck. They were killers of the purestand most refined kind, for whom there could be no other destiny but a lifetime of war and death in the name of the Imperium and Mankind. They did not build empires, made no attempt to master the ways of peace or the subtle skills of the artist, craftsman or diplomat. They offered no excuses for their nature and made no compromisesin the pursuit of their assigned duty, shirking neither the price they paid in blood northe price paid in infamy and solitude. Their greatest battles are tobe found in no catalogue of Compliance or roll of honour, no scholars or poets sing of these glories or remember those fallen in their prosecution, for they were fought against foes so monstrous that it was deemed necessary that all mention of them be erased from history. Such was the nature of their service, not only tobe prosecutors ofthe Great Crusade, but also to serve asthe Imperium’s most potent bulwark against the unknown terrors that lurked in the dark between the stars.  \nOrigins: FOrgeD OF secreTs anD Darkness  \nThe heraldry of the Dark Angels proclaims their lineage, the first of the Emperor’s Legiones Astartes, but other than that simple fact little is known of the origins of the Legion and its initial gene-stock. The genesis of the Legiones Astartes as a whole is a subject shrouded in much secrecy. It is perhaps the greatest and most enduring of the Emperor’s many works and a subject scholars have been warned away from in the latter days of His Imperium. What is known with some certainty is that, of all the many breeds of these post-human warriors, the Dark Angels were conceived by the Emperor as a template for those that would follow, distilled from the gene-code of the most stable of all His Primarchs and without any attempt to foster specific traits or curb the eccentricities of the stock from which they sprang. Even so, the process by which these first samples were produced was long and laborious, initiated perhaps a century or more before the end of the wars of Unity and consuming a vast number of test subjects to produce but a handful of stable protoAstartes. Of these initial creations, referenced in fragmentary records unearthed in the Imperial Archives as the Primordial Strain, almost none are known to have survived initial combat trials and surgical testing, but they form the basis for the initial cultures of the First Legion and, by merit of the refined process formulated with their creation, the other Legions as well.  \nThe Unbegotten Father  \nOf all the tens of thousands of subjects that bled and died within the hidden laboratories of the Emperor, the names of all but a handful are unknown. Most were, and remain, anonymous vessels used to nurture the first crude batches of gene-seed distilled from the Primarchs’ blood, test subjects for the earliest organs cultured from that seed and all were considered disposable in the cause of the Space Marines’ genesis. Some few, however, served as something more: functional prototypes ofthe new breed of warrior the Emperor had envisage","cbCaijpjoZ8S8e8V","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijpjoZ8S8e8V","pdf",14208368,37,"English","# The Dark angels\n## Numeration and domains\n## Oath and combat purpose\n## Origins forged of secrets and darkness\n## The Unbegotten Father\n## Early prototypes and gene-stock history","[{\"question\":\"What role and guiding philosophy are attributed to the Dark Angels?\",\"answer\":\"They are portrayed as the first Emperor’s Legions—killers whose destiny is war and death for Imperium and Mankind, leaving no monuments and no enemy work intact.\"},{\"question\":\"Why are the Dark Angels’ origins described as largely unknown?\",\"answer\":\"The genesis of the Legiones Astartes is said to be deeply secret, with scholars warned away, so only fragmentary records clarify early details.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the significance of the Primordial Strain and early gene-seed experiments?\",\"answer\":\"The Primordial Strain consists of initial proto-Astartes creations that mostly failed early trials but underpinned the First Legion’s early cultures and the refined process used for other Legions.\"}]","The Dark angels - Origins, Legione Astartes Background - Black Gate Keeper Hector Thrane quote | PDF",1791331852,93]
