== Personality/Wild Speculation == The words to sum up his personality are fanatical, puritanical, loyal, vengeful, determined, devoted, tireless, pertinacious, intransigent, uncompromising, resolute, committed, undeviating and all things that would be totally awesome if not for being undisciplined, unreasonable, uncontrollable & psychotic. In fact, he's so Noblebright that he loops back around to being [[Necrons|Nihilist tier Grimdark]]. In a way, it could be argued that the Angel is more dedicated to the <i>idea</i> of the Emperor than he is to the Emperor himself, considering how he screamed "You don't deserve the Emperor's love!" as he slaughtered the very people the Emperor wanted to unite under his banner. In fact, in examining such a statement, it could be he was actually [[Horus|jealous of baseline humans getting all the attention]] despite being obviously unworthy of the Emperor's consideration, much unlike himself which was perfect and beautiful in every way. The Angel is the answer to the question of "what if the Primarchs were completely pure and brought up under the Emperor's guidance instead of being scattered?" and that answer is "homicidal maniac." It poses the proposition that <i>maybe</i> having the Primarchs scattered was actually for the best in the end, [[Heresy|traitor legions and all]], lending some credence to the Big E is playing 4d chess and planned out the Heresy theory. For the above stated reasons, the Angel is both at once the Imperium's greatest asset (so much so that radical and puritanical Inquisitors <i>fought over who should get to keep him</i>) and it's biggest liability. If he were unleashed onto the battlefield during a Black Crusade, there is no doubt that he, in all of his unwavering devotion and unstoppable power, would undoubtedly shank [[Abaddon|Failbaddon the Armless]] in the gut, burn away his flesh in purifying flame and break the daemon sword Drachn'yen over his knee. He would then proceed to kill every other heretic on the battlefield. Then every loyalist Astartes. Then every Guardsman. Then every man, woman, child, cat and dog in the galaxy. Or least planet since it's unclear if his psychopathy would even let him work with humans long enough to get him from one planet to another since for that you need warp travel and Psykers. On the bright side, he hates Chaos and probably aliens more than he hates normal Imperial humans. So he'd kill off the enemy before killing you so all you have to do is time your retard bait-trap for slightly before he finishes wiping out the enemy and then Deathstrike the survivors. It also begs the question of what he'd think of his younger brothers. Naturally, the traitor Primarchs, especially [[Magnus]] and [[Lorgar]], [[BLAM|gotta go]]. Considering how puritanical he is though, and considering that all 20 Primarchs have already been tainted by the warp to one degree or another, it's probably a full bust with no chances of reconciliation. There's also the question of, since the Angel is apparently an all-in-one Primarch of sorts, how can his personality clue us in on the [[Primarch#Two_Missing_Primarchs_.7C_The_Forgotten_.26_The_Purged|Lost and Purged?]] We know already that the 2nd was shy and reserved, so it can be extrapolated that his puritanical manslaughter & blind, slavish devotion could say something about the 11th since even [[Konrad Curze]] wouldn't go as far as exterminating a planet's populace <i>just because</i> the residents there were less than perfect. He'd probably be chill with the Tau if he hasn't already been given a healthy dose of Xenophobia already, given they practically have no souls to speak of and thus have little to no connection to the Warp. But more than anything, rest assured he would absolutely <i>hate</i> the Eldar, especially after learning that they single-handedly created their own [[Slaanesh|Chaos God]]. Not only are they the most prolific psykers in the galaxy, they also have the largest souls of any sentient race, meaning their connection to the Warp is the greatest of all. Not so clear would be his stance on Tyranids; on the one hand, they're the single most terrifying and threatening foe the Imperium as ever seen and Hive Fleet Leviathan is knocking on Holy Terra's door. On the other hand, the Tyranids have that fancy Shadow in the Warp thing that blots out Chaos energies. On the other hand, they still make use of [[Zoanthrope|Zoanthropes]]. On the other, other hand, holy shit! Tyranids getting their talons on one strand of his DNA would be a NIGHTMARE! Or would be completely useless due to how much psychic bullshit went into his and the other Primarch's creation. Necrons would likely also toe that bizarre line of acceptance and abhorrence. As a race, they're ''completely'' cut off from the Warp due to their whole bio-transference shtick turning them into soulless, undying robo-zombies and are capable of constructing vast networks of [[Cadian Pylons|blackstone]] spires capable of suppressing the warp and all psykers within their boundaries. Conversely... they're genocidal robo-zombies that want nothing to do with the younger races squatting on their 60 million year old lawns. Then there's the question of how he'd respond to seeing his own father interned on the Golden Throne, which considering his bottomless devotion to ol' Emps, would probably send him into an earth-shattering mental breakdown on the spot, causing him to sobbingly vow revenge against whoever did it, only to fly into a rage at finding out that this [[Horus|"FUCKING HORUS"]] person is already long dead and gone, only to instead [[Rogal Dorn|settle on slaughtering the daemon Primarchs and their legions]]. Clearly, the only true course of action is to just drop him into the Eye of Terror and watch as it shrivels away in mere days as he slaughters every Chaos worshipper in that region of realspace. [[Rip and tear|Then drop him off at Commorragh for good measure.]] But, really, if he did get out of control the Imperium wouldn't have much difficulty killing him... after sacrificing a few dozen to a few hundred planets. Ultimately he's just one Primarch, not the Emperor and the Imperium has a lot of stupidly OP technology for special targets, even Ignoring that the guy's so dumb he fell for the same coffin trick twice. Now dropping an Empyrean Bomb into Commorragh. ''That's'' an idea! One full of irony and lulz. All this said, '''''What was done with his gene-seed''''', if any? Used for the Grey-Knights? Used as part of Custodes creation? Flushed down a toilet? Some dumbass scrounged it up for the Cursed Founding? Maybe the Flame Falcons inherited their cool party trick from this guy and that's why the Inquisition went apeshit over what should have been seen as a blessing from the Emperor. If so, then they reacted in a rational way. It is implied in the Gamemaster's Notes section of Inquisitor Conspiracies 1 - Cirian Legacy that the winged marine clones created by Sorgan Vorg were made using his blood.
