Hajjin
Hajjin was a Sergeant in the Carmine Blades Chapter, when the Blood Angels asked for aid to defend Baal from an invasion by Hive Fleet Leviathan.
However their Firstblood Kaan, did not give an answer immediately and instead asked the members of his Chapter to vote on the matter. Hajjin was among the older members of the Chapter to vote no, as he felt the Carmine Blades relationship was still too new and was mistrustful of it. At four hundred years old, he still remembered when they had called themselves the Swords of Haldroth, before Astorath arrived and changed the Chapter's history with the truth. However most of the Carmine Blades were young and could not remember a time when they were not a Successor Chapter to the Blood Angels. In the end the youth won and Kaan led eight hundred of his Chapter to aid the Blood Angels and they were then stationed on Baal Secundus; where the Carmine Blades were tasked with guarding its Astropathic Choir from the Hive Fleet. The Chapter suffered greatly for their efforts though and the majority of their forces were killed in battle with the Tyranids, including Kaan himself. In the aftermath of Kaan's death, Hajjin was chosen to become the new Firstblood, due to being well respected within his Chapter, as well as being one of the few high ranking members left alive. He would continue to lead his dwindling Chapter in defending the Astropathic Choir, which played a key part in saving Baal; as the Master Astropath Jerron Leeter, later used it to request much needed aid from the Indomitus Crusade[1a]. Though Leviathan was eventually defeated, it is not known if Hajjin survived the campaign against the Hive Fleet.[1b]
