Extinction Angels

Chaos Portal Chaos Space Marines

Extinction Angels Colours: Purple armour with bone trim[1]

The Extinction Angels are a Space Marine Chapter that turned to Chaos.

History

During the 13th Black Crusade the chapter fought alongside the Black Legion on the planet Demios Primary, where they scattered the Skitarii forces who were protecting the many forges of the Adeptus Mechanicus. The planet was liberated by the Black Templars and it is believed that the Angels are still hidden in the lower depths.^[2]

Reapers

The most veteran and skilled warriors of the Extinction Angels are known as The Reapers.^[3] They have become masters of melee combat, particularly working in conjunction against hardened targets. Reapers attack in packs, skillfully overwhelming larger prey.^[2]

Heraldry

Their armour is a dark purple with bone details and their symbol is a skull wearing a red hood, behind a grey Scythe.^[1]
