The Absolvers are a Space Marine Chapter of an unknown Founding. They are mostly known for defending the Gilead System and having a surprisingly nice color scheme. Judging by their name they might be another Dark Angels Chapter in the same vein as the Angels of Absolution, but their heraldry is a red chalice with an aquila, and that tends to be the theme of Blood Angels successors like the Red Seraphs.
History
So far, they've only been featured in Wrath & Glory. What we know is that they received Primaris Marines to bolster their ranks and sorta took a page out of the Adeptus Custodes' book by having a list of 1.000 "sacrosanct" names, with one of those granted by the Chapter Master to any Absolver deemed worthy of it. Said name is tatooed on the recipient's body, but Absolvers also deck their wargear with it, knowing that when they fall in battle, their name will be relinquished and given to a new marine.
Aside from that, Your Dudes seems in full effect about them; the rulebook flat out states that their Founding is unknown and lets players pick any traits from the First Founding loyal Chapters, giving players new to the universe a customizable Chapter without having to dig into successor Chapters (and eventually earning the ire of the GM for picking up one of the Judged or the Soul Drinkers).

Good enough for a design, still no budget for their lore.
