Background

Flesh Eaters (famous 'Jaws of Doom' Assault Squad mounting a frontal assault)

The Flesh Eaters were created in the Third Founding from the gene-seed of the Blood Angels. The chapter's name refers to their unnatural craving for blood and flesh. This chapter was almost labeled heretic because of cannibalistic rites and rituals.^{[Needs Citation]}

It is said that they have been "fatally undone by their gene-seed".³
