The Darkblood is a Styx Class Heavy Cruiser that took part in the 13th Black Crusade. During the conflict it succefully led a group of Chaos ships into the Belis Corona System, where they seeded it with minefields of daemonic origin. Now any ship passing through them risks madness and death; when the mines are activated, they spawn a host of Daemonic monstrosities that will drag any nearby ships into the Warp, where they will be consumed.[1]
