			The Paladins Repentant operate with no reserves. To them nothing his held back, to better serve the God-Emperor. Each company operates much as the company with any other Chapter's company, except with a Commander leading 2 captains and 4 Lieutenants. Each Commander will be recalled to Enoch should Lord Commander Tyrus Umbralbane finally perish or fall to the Red Thirst, there to select a replacement from themselves.
			The Companies have their own Veterans, Scouts, and compisition of Battle-brothers. Newly-minted brothers are set to the task of close-support first. Learning the power of their chainsword and gene-forged muscles, and to channel their berserk nature through themselves. Their progression to battleline and fire-support is much the same as other Blood Angel successors.
			The Paladins' Death Company is altogether different. Constantly at the brink of the Black Rage, the Death Company is seen as an escape: to complete their duty in noblest fashion and end their struggles in one final glorious action. Brothers to whom the Meditation is no longer able to keep the Rage at bay may present themselves to the Chaplains, bearing a rosary of black-metal beads. Their brothers bow to the warriors who give themselves up. If battle will not be joined quickly they are put in stasis until the next war.
			Their armor is painted gold with the red cruciform wound marks of their Angelic Primarch. As Sanguinius once did they sacrifice themselves for the Emperor.

	The Twin Curses of the Sons of Sanguinius do not ease as a warrior ages. For the Paladins Repentant such is doubly true, for they are held in their rage til their death.		The Twin Curses of the Sons of Sanguinius do not ease as a warrior ages. For the Paladins Repentant such is doubly true, for they are held in their rage til their death.
	Such is the burden upon Tyrus Umbralbane's tightened shoulders. Earning his name from his zealous hatred of the Black Legion, Tyrus is nevertheless hounded by his rage, and must spend nearly all his time in deep meditation lest it overtake him. Even then the ~~Chapter Master~~ can never sleep or rest lest his chapter fail its duties to the Imperium.		Such is the burden upon Tyrus Umbralbane's tightened shoulders.

	The Bane of Darkness rarely dons his relic Tartaros war-plate to stride to battle. When he bears his relic-blade against his foes he still does not give in to his rage. Each blow is calculated and forethought. Tyrus bears no great skill at strategy other than any command officer. He will often carry his tactical plans through his own application of excessive force rather than cunning.		The Bane of Darkness rarely dons his relic Tartaros war-plate to stride to battle.

			In battle he is escorted by Sanguinary Guard. Bearing red armour and black wings, this Honour Guard is not to guard Tyrus's life but his soul. Should he begin to lose control his guard will rush forward to give the Lord Commander time to compose himself, and to fortify his retreat if he is wounded or unable.
			Tyrus is ever-vigilant to the needs of his Chapter and his soul. No other commander is yet ready to assume his mantle should he fall.
			Even so the Lord Commander wastes away behind the red thirst. The Reclusiarch and Chief Sanguinary priest worry intensely that he may be unable to hold on much longer. When in war his guard must attend him more every battle. After battle he is a little slower to achieve his trance. Though his body is in prime condition for his age his mind is beset on all sides.

	====Recruitment and Training====		====Recruitment and Training====
	The recruitment of future Paladins depends on tournaments of various non-lethal combats. Victory by an aspirant is no guarantee, nor is recruiting both combatants of these duels uncommon. The Sanguinary Priest and Chaplain who observe these honour-fights search for many qualities. Rage, mercilessness, control, and honour are noted, sometimes more than skill of arms. For should a skilled fighter be out of control of himself he will be consumed by the Black Rage ~~it would be his doom~~.

			Upon implantation of the final gene-seed aspirants drink of the Sanguinary chalices, and meet the curses of their gene-father head on. As promoted to battle-brother their chaplain issues them two rosaries of beads. One set is of red plastek, for meditation, and one is of blackened iron, never to be prayed over and signals only their surrender to the Black Rage.
			The Chaplains will always have a service of prayer on the Power of the God-Emperor. And after he will lead his brothers to a deep trance of communal meditation. A brother will run the beads through his bare hands to hypnotise himself as the Chaplain begins a slow psalm of the Emperor's power.
			"From our rage, Darkness.
			"From the darkness, Light.
			"From this Light, Him."
			These meditations can take hours and even days on end should the gathered company just finished a campaign.
			For some even the meditation is not enough and must enter suspended animation withhelp from their gene-seed organs. Even for these servitors will sing psalms from the Chapters cult to calm the comatose marine to prevent the Rage taking him.
			Before campaigns ideally the company will have these services ceased and meetings to speak of wrath and swear oaths will be held instead.
			In the field between engagements the squad sergeant will guide his brothers in shorter meditations, though some brothers skilled in rhetoric may be given this duty instead.
			Officers such as Captains and lieutenants are taught the skills to meditate alone should the need arise, but some also forgo meditation entirely to become berserkers to aid their brothers in this way.

As successors of the fabled Blood Angels, Paladins Repentant are prone to Red Thirst and Black Rage. Although the gene-seed flaws can occur much more quickly and powerfully than in other Chapters that share the legacy of Sanguinius, Paladins have learned to somewhat channel their berserking nature through use of deep, trance-like zen meditation.

	At the time, Mechanicus ruler of Enoch and lead scientist on this particular gene-seed project was a Magos called Johann Watcharius. The experiments on Enoch focused on Blood Angels gene-seed and attempts to cure it of its flaws. Due to incredibly sensitive and personal nature of the experiments, a squad of Blood Angels veterans were stationed at Enoch as well, both to oversee the project and to eventually provide training and leadership to newly formed Chapter, should the experiments prove successful. Over time, tests yielded positive results and founding of a new chapter called Wings of War was approved.

			;Paladins Repentant - Today

			Following their 100 Year Crusade, Paladins spent several decades building up their strength. They started recruiting potential candidates from the surviving denizens of Enoch, and only those showing utmost faith in Emperor are admitted among their ranks.

	~~They built~~ a ~~massive Fortress-Monastery Nivellensem~~ to ~~serve~~ as their ~~burial grounds~~. ~~Following~~ their ~~efforts~~, they decided to continue crusading and started the Never-ending Crusade. Only small squad of their Marines would remain on Enoch to continue with recruitment and training process while the rest of the Chapter dedicated themselves on bringing the fury of the Emperor to rest of the galaxy.		The Paladins reorganized themselves in 7 separate, autonomous companies of 140 Marines each, in honor of the 140 Marines that survived the throes of their Chapters birth. While each company is fully able to function and crusade on its own, they are also trained at working together as single, cohesive force.

			As a way to repay the kindness of the Blood Angels and to prove that they are beyond reproach, a council called the Winged Watchers consisting of 7 Blood Angels would be permanently attached to the Paladins fleet, serving as advisors and witnesses to Paladins Repentant and their Chapter Master. To this day, both Chapters honor this tradition and maintain close ties.
