    Unification Wars

    The Dark Angels have the honour of being the first Space Marine Legion created by The Emperor of Mankind. Their origins are however shrouded in mystery and secrecy, though it is said their Gene-Seed was in production a century before the end of the Unification Wars. During their earliest days Prototype Space Marines such as Abraxus Ghent were created from the Gene-Seed of Lion El'Jonson and served as the template for later Astartes to come. Known as the Primordial Strain, almost none of these...

    Great Crusade

    In the earliest days of the Great Crusade the First pushed out of the Sol System, cleansing the Oort Cloud and keeping watch along the Heliopause border for terrors that sought to slip into the Emperor's new realm. They also liberated the outermost edges of the Sol System, recovering whatever few Human survivors could be found. By this point the Legion had become isolated and developed a complex culture of ciphers and rituals alongside the creation of the first specialized Orders. Upon their...

    The Horus Heresy

    By the end of the Great Crusade the Dark Angels had a strength slightly under 200,000 Space Marines, but many of these were spread out across the Galaxy and unaware of the greater galactic developments.[50d] During their battles against Daemons in the Warp, the Dark Angels violated the Council of Nikea on direct orders from The Lion by reestablishing Librarians. Due to the Warp Storms plaguing the Eastern Fringes the Dark Angels followed the Pharos and moved to Ultramar and joined with Robout...

    As the first Space Marine Legion, Dark Angels Gene-Seed is among the purest and least degraded. Remarkably, Dark Angels Apothecaries have observed that gene-seed carried by Primaris Space Marines is universally of the highest quality they have ever seen, and so the Chapter's stock is qualitatively and quantitatively in excellent health. There are n...

    The organisation of the Dark Angels Chapter has been shaped primarily by events in its history; as a result, it is different from that of any other. The Chapter is monastic in nature with much time being given over to worship and prayer. There are also many different levels within the Chapter that individuals may gradually rise through. On attainin...

    In the same vein as their father Lion El'Jonson, Dark Angels officers are expert tacticians and specialists and have been quick to capitalize on the skills of Primaris Space Marines and the particular varieties of their squad types. New specialized formations have been developed alongside ancient patterns such as the Hammer of Caliban and Scout Rec...

Main article: Hexagrammaton Initially during the Unification Wars and Early Great Crusade the Dark Angels Legion was divided into a number of Hosts and Orders. Most of these Hosts were later reorganized by Lion El'Jonson into the Hexagrammaton, although the Orders of the Hekatonystika endured all the way into the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. The Hekatonystika...

    Post Heresy-era

    To outside observers, the Dark Angels seem to follow the standard Codex Astartesorganization - comprising 10 companies of roughly 100 Marines plus Headquarters Staff, however, they do have several organisational differences which are unique to them and their Successor Chapters - 1. Inner Circle: It is in the organization of the Dark Angels' higher levels that the chapter deviates from the dictates of the Codex Astartes. At the highest level of the Chapter is the Inner Circle, which consists o...

    As the Dark Angels are no longer based on an actual world, they draw their recruits from a variety of planets, mainly highly primitive worlds. The Dark Angels have sworn oaths to protect thousands of worlds which, in return, supply potential aspirants for the chapter.[40a] Representatives of the Dark Angels visit each recruiting world once within a...
