      Moments later, a shout, full of bloody fury shook the galaxy, a warp storm engulfed some poor system. Confused, the Grandmaster asks for visuals on the source of the disruption. Techmarine and Librarian alike scramble to hook up an ancient scrying device, that pops on.
      The Supreme Grandmaster is puzzled for a moment, requiring several seconds to process what is happening. The scene is aboard a cursed vessel of the traitor legions. A high ranking one. A Space Marine, clad in fullm crimson terminator armor, is sprinting down the halls and decks, displaying feats of frankly impossible acrobatics, as he flips between major systems, runs along walls, and performs maneuvers that would not seem out of place if performed by a Harlequin. In his mighty clenched fist are two mysterious, long, ebon objects. The Supreme Grandmaster puzzles deeply over these prizes, and relents from identifying them to inspect his pursuer for clues. The Supreme Grandmaster's jaw slackens as he recognizes the face of the ultimate enemy, the thrice damnable grimace of Abbadon the Despoiler.
      The Supreme Grandmaster is about to begin giving orders to move out, when he realizes that the Despoiler's gait is... off. Unbalanced. He looks again, and the shock of what he sees causes warning klaxons in his sanctified armor to blare, alerting the world of the sure doom of the Supreme Grandmaster. Abbadon has been maimed, empty sockets in his vile armor peek out from where his arms should be. The Supreme Grandmaster does not even need to reconfirm the identity of the prize the fleeing terminator must have wrested from their foul attatchments.

    A Space Marine Chapter Consists of One Thousand Battle Brothers. One Thousand Sons, and Magnus the Red is a prolific psyker, also He is a bird-man now. Ravens are Birds, Blood is Red and Magnus did alot of things he was not supposed to do. Like Father, like a thousand sons!

    I kind of hope that if another DOW game is made, that the blood ravens show up with some items or technology "liberated" from the inquisition.
    Maybe a couple of Exterminatus weapons or information to blackmail a uncooperative legion or guard regiment. I can see some pompous Hive City noble saying:
    "You cannot do this, the segmentem command will hear of this" and the reply is simply "let us tell them together! Then maybe then I can tell them why the tithe has been so reduced of late."
    "you would not, they would bathe this sector in blood!"
    "We are the emperors will made flesh! And we will do as we will. Knowledge is power and we guard it well, pray to the emperor that we continue to do so."
    "I... I... my regiment is yours to command"
    "Then order your men forwards, today we take back this HIVE from the foul xenos in the emperors name and you earn your redemption in the fire of battle."
    Not sure who would be saying this. It seems like something that Cyrus would say, I cannot see Gabriel Angelos doing. Cyrus would be cool thematically as the scouts are the weakest physically but they still help by doing the dirty work. So a mission built around Cyrus taking a small team to hunt down deserter guardsmen possibly with the assistance of a commissar and assassinating key people up the chain slowly winning over more and more of the regiment. I would give opportunities for fun moments.
    "who is in charge here."
    "I am!"
    Kapow
    "who else is bucking for a promotion?"
    "Sir, we followed the generals orders, sir."
    "Then I offer you two choices, run back to the HIVE and give your life in the name of the emperor, or stay and explain your actions to the commissar!"
    "For the emperor!"
    Just my thoughts.
