Editing Chaplain (section)

==Variations==
===Blood Angels Chaplain===
The Blood Angels Chaplains were originally known as "Wardens", who served as advisors and mentors to the younger generations. When the Edict of Nikaea was declared and the Chaplain Edict followed, the Wardens were appointed to oversee enforcement. Following the Horus Heresy, the Wardens of the Blood Angels and their successor Chapters became Chaplains, and were tasked with an additional, somber purpose: they were to lead the [[Death Company]], those Marines who fell to the Black Rage and the Red Thirst, into battle. Being surrounded by raging berserkers, the Chaplains must have iron strong wills to oversee these Marines and maintain their own sanity.

===Dark Angels Interrogator-Chaplain===

The [[Dark Angels]] and their successors have an extra rank for Chaplains who make it into the Inner Circle and learn the "truth" (or at least part of it) about <s>the [[Fallen Angels]]</s> {{BLAM|RENEGADE MARINES DARING TO IMPERSONATE DARK ANGELS AND DO WRONG AGAINST THE IMPERIUM}}. After passing several trials of the soul (the penalty for failure being death or worse), they interrogate (read: torture) captured <s>Fallen Angels</s> {{BLAM|HERETICS WEARING STOLEN DARK ANGELS ARMOR}} to try and force them to repent for their crimes. These "[[Interrogator-Chaplain]]s" are extremely patient and resilient against the *cough* ''insidious lies'' of captured heretics, and will take as long as necessary to finally break them. To put this in perspective, the very best Interrogator-Chaplain that the Dark Angels ever had only managed to get ten <s>Fallen</s> {{BLAM|DOPPELGANGERS}} to confess and repent over the course of 300 years of service.

===Iron Hands Iron Father===
Among the [[Iron Hands]], the Chaplains are known as an "[[Iron Father]]", which combines the role of Chaplain and [[Techmarine]] together, which reflects the Iron Hands heavy preference for augmentics. Also unique in the fact that they're completely separated from the Ecclesiarchy altogether, considering the chapter's predilection towards machinery and the like. The spat ended with them splitting off and the Iron Hands unable to have Rosarii. To compensate that, the Iron Hands have to fabricate their own equivalents using some special [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] schemes.

===Space Wolves Wolf Priest===
The Chaplains of the [[Space Wolves]] are the [[Wolf Priest]]s, who combine the role of Chaplain and medic <s>and wolf</s> into one. All Wolf Priests, along with the [[Rune Priest]]s ([[Librarian]]s) and [[Iron Priest]]s ([[Techmarine]]s) serve as part of the Company of the Great Wolf (the elite Great Company under the Chapter Master of the Space Wolves) and are assigned to the other eleven Great Companies as needed.

===Grey Knights Chaplains===
Believe it or not, [[Grey Knights]] do have Chaplains of their own. The Chaplains of The Emperor's Space Paladins don't differ greatly when compared to other Chapters, but the challenges Grey Knight Chaplains have are unique (and very often difficult). Although Grey Knights are incorruptible, with time even their faith can be tested and doubt will assail their minds at some point one way or another. Chaplains are here to straighten them up, get them on the proper tracks, have their doubts evaporated and give new meanings to the mission of their Battle-Brothers. Just like all Grey Knights, the Chapter's Chaplains are also Psykers. They are recruited from the very purest of the Paladin Brotherhood, which is already one of the two elite brotherhoods, so this makes the Grey Knight Chaplains one man armies to a man. Also were known to not be available as HQ options for some stupid reason until 8th.

===Alpha Legion Chaplains===
All Alpha Legion chaplains are secretly Alpharius, just as all other Alpha Legionnaires are secretly Alpharius. or maybe not. They are used to spread propaganda and misinformation amongst Imperial citizens, though they might not be. Alpharius himself may have been a Chaplain, though he might not have been.

===Primaris Chaplains===
The [[Primaris Marines]]' [[Primaris Chaplain|version]] basically function pretty much the same, the only notable differences are their appearance and their Crozius Arcanum.
