A list of members of the Soul Drinkers Chapter.
- Chapter Master Sarpedon: Also Chief Librarian, Sarpedon suffered a mutation like many of his brothers though his is far more evident due to the growth of eight arachnoid legs. A master psyker, his power has often turned the tide in battle in favour of Soul Drinkers. A telepath, he is only able to receive not send messages. Currently in Imperial Fists custody.
- Captain Luko: Right hand of Sarpedon, Luko wields a pair of lightning claws into battle and is often the source of comedic relief as well as unbending courage when the battle is at its height. Promoted to Captain after the fighting on Entymion IV. Current status unknown, probably in Imperial Fists Custody.
- Captain Karraidin: Member of the original Chapter, Karraidin was vested in one of the the Soul Drinkers' last suits of Terminator Armour. A grizzled veteran he was placed in control of the Chapter's scouts by Sarpedon. Killed during the second Chapter war.
- Captain Dreo: Original follower of Sarpedon, was known as an expert marksman and his squad's bolter drill was said to be the best in the Chapter. Killed in action on Eumenix.
- Chaplain Iktinos: Follower of Sarpedon, over the years the Soul Drinker's only Chaplain has become more and more a leader to some warriors who subsequently became his 'flock'. On the surface he is a loyal warrior but he has been shown to hide motives and designs for the Chapter that are known only by him and his flock. Current status unknown, probably in Imperial Fists custody.
- Sergeant Graevus: Assault Sergeant, master of close combat and another of Sarpedon's veterans. He suffered a mutation in his hand, deforming it greatly and making it larger and stronger, allowing him greater reach with his power axe. Current status unknown, probably in Imperial Fists custody.
- Sergeant Salk: Tactical Sergeant. Followed Sarpedon's faction in the first Chapter war and has since become known as one of his veterans by the rest of the Chapter. Current status unknown, probably in Imperial Fists custody.
- Sergeant Eumenes: Scout Sergeant, later a full sergeant and for a brief time Chapter Master, Eumenes was one of the new recruits of Sarpedon's new Chapter and soon distinguished himself as a capable soldier and received a promotion prior to Vanqualis. Started the 2nd Chapter war and later assumed control and imprisoned Sarpedon. Later killed in a duel with Sarpedon who escapes from the brig.
- Sergeant Tellos: Assault Sergeant, loses his hands in battle with an electro priest and takes to jamming blades in the stumps if his wrists. His mutations included rapid healing, making him all but invincible but as time went on his grip on sanity slipped further and further. Left behind on Stratix Luminae with his assault marines they later fell to Khorne worship and were tracked down by the Chapter and destroyed on Entymion IV. Tellos survived his duel with Sarpedon but was finally killed during the Exterminatus.
- Techmarine Lygris: One of Sarpedon's staunchest followers, he was responsible for the outfitting of the Brokenback as a base for the Renegade Soul Drinkers and acted as its Captain. He was an expert with machine spirits and sacrificed himself on Selaaca which allowed the Soul Drinkers to finally destroy the Necron Overlord and his warrior.
- Librarian Tyrendian: One of the few remaining Libarians in the Chapter, Tyrendian is able to cast psychic lightning from his hands. Has taken to training Novice-Librarian Scamander in recent years. Current status unknown, probably in Imperial Fists custody.
- Librarian Gresk: One of the Chapter's Librarians, he was able to speed up the already swift reactions of himself and his brothers. Joined Eumenes's faction in the Chapter war but later repented and told Sarpedon and his men of Eumenes's planned orbital bombardment, saving them at the expense of his own life.
- Novice-Librarian Scamander: One of the new recruits, served in Eumenes's Scout Squad and later sided with him during the Chapter War. Wounded by Sarpedon during his escape from the brig he decided to stay with the Chapter and has since become a valuable member. His power is the ability to cast, control, and manipulate fire at the expense of his own internal body heat.
- Apothecary Pallas: The Soul Drinkers' sole remaining dedicated apothecary, he helped halt the mutations afflicting the Chapter with data from Stratix Luminae and reversed the taint in the gene-seed to allow its implantation into new recruits. Would later follow Eumenes but repented and continues to serve the Chaper.
- Daenyathos: Long-dead philosopher soldier of the Soul Drinkers, his tome the Catechisms Martial is the book the Soul Drinkers live by.
