Serena D'Angelus was a Remembrancer of the Imperium during the Great Crusade.[1]

Attached to the Expeditionary Fleet of Fulgrim and the Emperor's Children, Serena was a painter by trade and was charged to paint an exquisite piece by Fulgrim itself but fell into depression from her inability to find the right muse. Serena's distractions were worsened by her flirtations with Ostian Delafour, who secretly loved her. After the Cleansing of Laeran Serena was given access to the Laern's Slaanesh-corrupted temple, which began to corrupt her soul. Serena herself became inspired by the sight of the temple and desperately sought to replicate it in her painting. Driven to madness, she delved into self-mutilation and using her own blood for her work. Eventually she murdered fellow Remembrancer Leopold Cadmus and used his blood for her painting. Later when she became more lucid and not under the influence she had realized what she had done and was horrified and remorseful. When she showed Ostian her work, not realizing he had long been dead, killed by the now-corrupted Fulgrim and left decomposing in his studio. When she finally realized this, she impaled herself on the same sword that had slain Ostian. She stated she didn't know anything and she she's sorry and that she loved him before taking her own life. When Serena's painting was found by the Primarch, Fulgrim found it magnificent but to all uncorrupted individuals it appeared as hideous and grotesque. This painting was eventually the same that the Daemon which inhabited the silver blade used to trap Fulgrim.[1]
