The Blood Scorpions are a loyalist Space Marine Successor Chapter of the bloodline of Sanguinius, created during the 6th Founding, which occurred sometime during the M33 or M34. Throughout their existence, the Blood Scorpions have garnered a brutal reputation for being savage and unrelenting fighters. Created as they were from the Blood Angels' gene-seed, they inherited the genetic flaws of the Red Thirst and the Black Rage, which greatly afflict the Chapter like many of their fellow Successor Chapters founded in later centuries. The Blood Scorpions are notoriously intolerant of all xenos, believing them to be a blight on the galaxy. They adamantly believe that it is Mankind's manifest destiny to vanquish all the vile and wicked alien races, and to take their place as the rightful inherito

| - The Blood Scorpions are a loyalist Space Marine Successor Chapter of the bloodline of Sanguinius, created during the 6th Founding, which occurred sometime during the M33 or M34. Throughout their existence, the Blood Scorpions have garnered a brutal reputation for being savage and unrelenting fighters. Created as they were from the Blood Angels' gene-seed, they inherited the genetic flaws of the Red Thirst and the Black Rage, which greatly afflict the Chapter like many of their fellow Successor Chapters founded in later centuries. The Blood Scorpions are notoriously intolerant of all xenos, believing them to be a blight on the galaxy. They adamantly believe that it is Mankind's manifest destiny to vanquish all the vile and wicked alien races, and to take their place as the rightful inheritors of the galaxy. This intolerance for the alien has led to the Blood Scorpions' inherent distrust of their Progenitor Chapter due to the events of the Gehenna Campaign in 955.M41. As a fleet-based Chapter, the Blood Scorpions operate solely from its substantial warfleet, utilising the rare operational strategy known as the "Nomad-Predation" pattern. Unlike the Crusade pattern favoured by such Chapters as the Black Templars, the Blood Scorpions are an entirely self-contained force that can sustain itself beyond the boundaries of the Imperium. Voyaging endlessly, they pick and chose their foes wisely, engaging them with savage fury, and then taking the spoils of war before the enemy can retaliate. One further detail marks the Chapter as unusual -- the Blood Scorpions almost exclusively operate as a single entity. They don't spread their forces across multiple war zones and rarely detach smaller forces away from the main body. The Blood Scorpions prefer acting as a blunt instrument, striking at their foes like a broadsword rather than a scalpel. This enables them to rip through almost any enemy that dares stands against them.
