The Brothers of the Red is a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter and a Successor Chapter of the Blood Angels created during an unknown Founding.
Created as they were from the Blood Angels' gene-seed, they carry the genetic flaws inherited from Sanguinius.
Chapter History[]
The Brothers of the Red were once thought to have been fatally undone by the Black Rage.
Whether the Chapter unexpectedly survived the Flaw or was rebuilt in the wake of its destruction is unknown, but the Brothers of the Red were among the many Successor Chapters that sent their forces to defend Baal from an invasion by Hive Fleet Leviathan in 999.M41.
