The Blood Angels have successfully maintained a number of
Contemptor-pattern Dreadnoughts, the eldest of which house
warriors that fought upon the ramparts of the Emperor’s palace
and saw battle at the side of Sanguinius himself. These revered
ancients are living links to their Chapter’s earliest days, and are
viewed by their battle-brothers as virtually sacred beings. Were
such a warrior to be threatened by the foe, or their war-chassis
stranded upon the field of battle, there are no lengths to which
the Blood Angels would not go to protect and recover them in
one piece.
