Editing Angels Penitent (section)

==Notable Members==
*Varzival Czervantes: Last Chapter Magister of the Angels Resplendent. During his time as captain of the Rhapsody Eternal, he led the purgation of Kanvolis, served in the Providence Crusade, and was present for the fall of the Koronatus Ring on Vytarn, where he encountered a young psyker named Athanazius, who would ultimately be inducted into the chapter and become its Chief Librarian. Disappeared while on crusade with the Rhapsody Celestial of the Resplendent and is currently presumed dead. Named for Miguel de Cervantes, the author of ''Don Quixote'', and possibly the legendary Arthurian knight Percival/Parzival. 
*Yukio Caravaggio: Czervantes' predecessor as the leader of the Rhapsody Eternal; he was corrupted and apparently possessed by a painting he bought from a shady merchant in the Calixis Sector and had to be locked away, with Czervantes telling the chapter that he'd died fighting a daemon. His actual status was less certain, with Architect Radiant Satori claiming that the only daemon possessing him was himself, whatever that meant. Probably named for the mercurial Italian painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, who was known for his dramatic use of shadows and violent subject matter, and possibly for the equally mercurial Japanese author Yukio Mishima.
*Satori: Architect Radiant and Paladin Illuminant of the Angels Resplendent. He was the sole survivor of the Vindarnas Incident, in which he slew the fallen champion Hanzo Gyguerre, and was recruited by Xoren Castaneda afterward, ascending into the Resplendent's Librarium and ultimately becoming one of the shadowy watchers tasked with overseeing the Reverie and keeping its corruption under control. Unlike the rest of his chapter, his name was not taken from a Terran artist or creative, but instead is a Japanese word which translates roughly as "awakening" or "comprehension", and in Zen Buddhism means that one has experienced or come to understand the true nature of reality, thus achieving enlightenment.
*Athanazius Calvino: Last Chief Librarian of the Angels Resplendent. He was a native of the remote Shrine World Vytarn who had been abducted by a crazy old bat belonging to the local Sororitas order to be surgically mutilated into a representation of one of the order's guiding virtues. He was rescued by another Sister and ultimately met Captain Czervantes, who took him to be inducted into the chapter. He rose to become its Chief Librarian, and was a stalwart warrior and great leader of the Resplendent. He rejected the new creed espoused by the Undying Martyr, only to be murdered by his own battle-brothers. Possibly named for St. Athanasius of the Coptic Church and Italian author Italo Calvino.
*Icharos Malvoisin: Chaplain of the Angels Resplendent and leader of the Council of Thorns in the Angels Penitent. He was the instigator of the chapter's fall from noblebright warrior-poets to self-flagellating doomers. He was led to this new outlook by a strange man known only as the Undying Martyr, who convinced him over the course of nineteen days that humanity in general and the Space Marines in particular were all irredeemable sinners who deserved nothing but death for their failures. He led the Angels in the purgation of their fortress-monastery and formed the Council of Thorns to enforce the new creed. Possibly named for Icarus, the mythical Greek boy who flew too close to the sun, and the sinister Malvoisin brothers from ''Ivanhoe''.
*Ennio Zann: An Artificer Radiant (Techmarine) of the chapter who was corrupted after noticing the daemonic influence seeping out of the Reverie. He created an [[Heresy|AI]] to help him develop a countermeasure, only for it to hijack his brain and turn him into a vector for Chaos shit to invade the Resplendent's fortress-monastery. Peter Fehervari was clearly having fun with this one, as he appears to be named after legendary composer Ennio Morricone and the mad violinist Erich Zann from one of [[H.P. Lovecraft]]'s short stories.
*Xoren Castaneda: Former Chief Librarian and first Chapter Magister of the Angels Resplendent. Led the chapter's reformation into noblebright warrior-poets after seeing one of his battle-brothers rip up an entire town while in the throes of the Red Thirst and deciding that something needed to be done to fix the problem. Nobody wanted to listen to him until the current chapter master Black Raged and everyone else decided that Castaneda might be onto something. Possibly named for proto-existentialist philosopher Soren Kierkegaard and Spanish author Carlos Castaneda.
