What follows is a list of Space Marine Chapter names. Many of these you may
have seen before, others are Chapters that have been mentioned possibly once
or twice in the distant past, while some are totally new.
Space Marine Chapters are much like Knightly Orders, and their names often
reflect this. Reference can also be made to their status as the defenders of
Mankind, or the fact that they consider themselves the ritual Sons of the Emperor.
A Chapter's name might embody the character of the Chapter (such as the Blood
Drinkers), the world of thier founding (Praetors of Orpheus) or the Legion gene-seed
from which they derived (such as the Storm Lords and Marauders).
