Editing Void Angels (section)

=Gene-seed and Successors=
The Void Angels are the great sire of the Adeptus Astartes.  Dozens of Chapters were founded from among their ranks during the Second Founding and their geneseed, prized for its stability, has been the most frequently used in later Foundings.

==The Void Angels Chapter==

The first of the Successor Chapters to the Void Angels would be based on Ciban IV and keep the Legion's name and colours.  However, they were not led by Gaspard Lumey.  The Primarch laid down his arms and turned to his protege, Mai Dac Kien, to lead the new chapter.  Although their traditions and doctrine are largely true to those of the parent legion, the reforms of the Institutorum Astartes and changes to Ciban IV's culture have affected the Chapter.

As Space Marines, the Void Angels are no strangers to direct assaults.  However, they generally prefer to destabilise their enemies using infiltrators.  Against enemies who know fear, the advance troops kill targets of opportunity and leave the bodies in the open so that the enemy may know what awaits them, but their main role is to sow confusion in the rear.  Mobile forces follow in their wake, seeking to exploit weaknesses, while heavier battle elements surround and eliminate enemy strongpoints.

The Void Angels arsenal is lacking in no respect, but prized equipment such as Terminator armour is generally held in reserve on Ciban and rarely deployed to expeditionary forces.  While ancient technology is respected for its efficacy, the Void Angels make no fetish of it and attach little significance to the history of their weapons and armour.

==Notable Successors==

*'''[[Angels Imperious]]''' were established in the Second Founding under the command of Fabrice Diallo.  The Angels Imperious were charged with the defence of the Markian Pact from enemies both within and without the Imperium.
*'''[[Angels Vigilant]]''' embodied the traditions of the Fifth Legion's fleet and were first commanded by Kesh Kanak.  From the Second Founding onwards, they would travel the Galaxy with the great city-ship, ''Light of Reason''.
*'''[[The Infernals]]''' are a Second Founding Chapter that began a descent into savagery during the horrors of WAAAGH! The Beast.  Though still loyalist, they are unresponsive to any instructions that deter them from attacking the Orks.
*'''[[The Mercurials]]''' are a Second Founding Chapter, first led by Augustin Carron.  They have carried on his legacy of high-intensity warfare - and ruthlessness.
*'''[[The Saracens]]''' were part of the Second Founding and epitomise the Fifth Legion's individualism.  They specialise in raiding and skirmishing.
