The Celebrants are a Space Marine Chapter.
History
Precious little is known about the Celebrants.
It is known that they were ordered to withdraw from garrisoning Phaethon IV and directed to remain on the Cardinal World of Nedicta Secundus to protect holy relics from the ravages of Hive Fleet Kraken and its splinter fleets. However, this order turned out to be a ploy orchestrated by an Alpha Legion Traitor Marine claiming to be Alpharius. The Crimson Consuls were stationed on Phaethon IV in the place of the Celebrants as part of the Alpha Legion Traitor Marine's grand plan that resulted in the destruction of the Crimson Consuls Chapter.[2]
