Blood Disciples

The 'Blood Disciples are a warband of Chaos Space Marines.
History
Originally the 8th company of the Emperor's Wolves chapter. In 888.M37, the Emperor's Tarot indicated a great Chaos threat from the worlds of the Eye of Terror. The 8th Company of the Emperor's Wolves was dispatched to deal with the threat, encounting a twisted hermit known as the Red Prophet. Slaying the heretical preacher, all those touched by his blood instantly became devoted to Khorne. Eventually the entire chapter was exposed and they renamed themselves the Disciples of Blood.[2]
Decades later, they returned to realspace dedicated to the powers of Chaos. Because of the warband's history as a designated assault company, The Blood Disciples are noted for having a large number of Chaos Raptors.1
