Editing Rachnus Rageous (section)

==Post-Heresy==

The [[God-Emperor of Mankind]] recognized, as Alpharius had, that the Desert Fangs were his most potent weapon against [[Chaos]], and that it was only a matter of time before the Ruinous Powers wised up to their existence and started a [[Black Crusade]] against them, against which they would surely fall.  To preserve their secret, he had all records of the Desert Fangs and their deeds destroyed, and ordered Rachnus and his Silencers to go into hiding.  Fal took control of the remainder of the Desert Fangs, whom he then renamed the [[Angry Marines]] and recolored in red and yellow.  To complete the historical erasure, the newly-minted Angry Marines modified their gene-seed so that it would no longer grant them a mental ward against chaotic influence (although their newfound rage at the loss of their history more than replaced it).

Having been removed from the galactic radar, Rachnus and his Silencers were left to pursue their crusade against [[Chaos]] in secret.  He quickly established a base on a world (named Maloris, after Rachnus's adoptive father) in the outskirts of the Eye of Terror in order to grow a population of Blanks, so as to replenish losses.  His most recent strike against Chaos was an attack on a [[Slaanesh|Slaaneshi]] Daemon World, where he confronted [[Fulgrim]]; unfortunately, the daemon controlling Fulgrim's body escaped, but he was severely injured in the process, and Rachnus's fleet was able to destroy the world and strike a devastating blow against the [[Emperor's Children]].

What other adventures Rachnus had afterwards is unknown, but his crusade against Chaos is far from complete.
