Sanguine Berzerkers

The Sanguine Berzerkers are a Loyalist Successor Chapter created from the lineage of Sanguinius and Noble Blood Angels. They were created at after the end of the Horus Heresy and have been an interesting part of Imperial History.

History
In the closing days of the Horus Heresy The Blood Angels Legion was split into many chapters. The Chapter of the Sanguine Berzerkers were formed from a company of the Blood Angels that had a more blood thirsty trait than their brethren. Their Captain was named Ymir and given the nickname of The Mighty, and led his Brothers to many victories through out the Great Crusade. They were typically the first in the fight, fighting without fear thus giving them the nickname the Berzerkers. The Berzerkers pulled victory out of the jaws of defeat for the Blood Angels on many occasions and had a very high casualty rates.

After the Heresy and the splitting of the Legions, Ymir took his newly formed Chapter went out in search for a home. After a decade of Searching the Sanguine Berzerkers found Drengrheim in the Ultima Segmentum. Drengrheim was a Feudal world reminiscent of Terra's Dark Ages. The Society of the world was similar to that of the ancient Scandians from Terra and quickly bowed to the Astartes as they landed on the planet. They named Drengrheim their Home World and created their Fortress Monastery of the Bloody Fortress.
